Description:
Quite simply, a Philadelphia dinner cruise is the perfect night out. A magical setting enhanced by dazzling city sights and harbor lights.

Head for Penn's Landing on the Delaware riverfront and spend a few unforgettable hours aboard the Spirit of Philadelphia for a wonderful dinner cruise.

An evening filled to the brim with wonderful cuisine, live entertainment and dancing under a canopy of stars. For a party of two, a couple of couples, or a grand affair for up to 500 guests, this is the ultimate Philadelphia experience.

You'll know you're in for a special evening the moment you step aboard our elegant decks and are escorted to your festively decorated table.

Order drinks, then feel free to explore the ship while our crew casts off for three fabulous hours on the Delaware River. Your cruise will sail down the Delaware River as far north as the Ben Franklin Bridge and as far south as the old Navy Yard passing under the Walt Whitman Bridge.

Savor your culinary selections over perfectly-paced dinner music and a never-ending view of Philadelphia's breathtaking skyline seen through our huge panoramic windows. Truly, a sight you won't soon forget.

After dinner, take your drinks topside and relax on the largest outdoor patio deck in the city while Philadelphia's magnificent skyline spreads before you in all directions. It's the perfect pause before the pulsing beat of Spirit's dance tunes entices you onto the dance floor.

Spirit's dinner cruises spotlight some of the hottest DJs in the city. For nearly two hours, we'll spin your favorite tunes and let you rock til we dock - literally.

The perfect end to the perfect night.
