A locally owned boat tour business, Baton Rouge Cruises, is officially making waves and offering full-on brunch booze cruises, holiday cruises, and even taking guests on narrated sightseeing cruises down the Mississippi.

This isn't Captain Duncan Armentor's first rodeo. He worked on river cruises in New Orleans before purchasing his boat and bringing the party to Baton Rouge.

According to The Advocate, Armentor purchased the Jacqueline Queen, a real paddlewheel boat, in Baltimore, and decided to bring it down to 'The Boot'.

What's On Deck?

So far, the cruises are attracting families, LSU students, and folks just looking for a good time.

Thinking of booking a ride on the Jacqueline Queen? Here's what you can expect:

• Sightseeing Narrated Cruise ($36.50): A one-hour guided ride with historic commentary on Baton Rouge landmarks like the Old State Capitol.

• Friday Night Cocktail Cruise ($45): Includes your first drink on the house and access to onboard snacks.

• Saturday Sunset Cruise ($89.50): Bites, booze, and skyline views? Say less.

• Sunday Brunch Cruise ($85): Bottomless mimosas, pastries, bacon, eggs—and Instagrammable vibes.

You and your booze cruise crew will be picked up and dropped off at 900 River Road.
