Best City Views in Nashville 2026: Nashville Riverboats

There’s a new lady on the Cumberland River. Guests board the Nashville Riverboats’ pristine paddlewheel riverboats downtown at Riverfront Park for a tour detailing Nashville’s river history and, if opted in, a fine dinner. For locals, it’s a way to slow down and enjoy the city where you live. For visitors, it’s a chance to see the range of Nashville views — not just the lights of Broadway, but the beautiful sprawling hills and parks that border the river. After all, Nashville wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for the Cumberland.
