Boat Travel in Sacramento and the Gold Country

Sacramento's riverfront location enables you to sightsee while getting around by boat. A water taxi run by River Otter Taxi Co. serves the Old Sacramento waterfront during spring and summer, stopping at points near restaurants and other sights. Channel Star Excursions operates the Spirit of Sacramento, a riverboat that takes passengers on happy-hour, dinner, lunch, and champagne-brunch cruises in addition to one-hour narrated tours.
