Description

from Showboat Branson Belle
A cruise, meal, and an amazing show—all in one! Cruise the pristine waters of Table Rock Lake, dine on a scrumptious three-course meal, and be entertained by a lively show aboard the Showboat Branson Belle.

Leave your cares at the dock for a relaxing two-hour adventure aboard this four-deck Branson showboat. One of the most enticing features of a cruise aboard the Showboat Branson Belle is the opportunity to spend time on scenic Table Rock Lake.

An extended intermission between the meal and the beginning of the live show gives you time to sit back, relax, and take in the scenic views. Whether you’re sitting in one of the comfy Adirondack chairs, strolling along one of the four grand decks, or looking through the window from your table, you’ll be able to enjoy the gorgeous scenery of the Ozarks from one of the most unique vantage points in Branson.

Themed after the majestic showboats of the 1800s, the Showboat Branson Belle evokes the spirit of a bygone era when riverboat adventure, glamorous travel, and dazzling entertainment converged into what we remember as Those Grand Old Showboatin' Days!

In addition to time for exploring the lake, Showboat Branson Belle tickets include an outstanding live show and a three-course meal specially prepared for your excursion.

Fun Fact: The Showboat Branson Belle was launched from her lakeside shipyard on August 13, 1994, using two tons of bananas as a lubricant for the nine-second slide into the water. She traveled 14 mph during the launch, faster than she'll ever travel on water.
