Unique way to get a tour of the city and I highly recommend for any out of towners but also fun for Pittsburghers! My first time on the clipper was riding it to a Pitt Game. The fleet serves as great roundtrip transportation for Pitt, Steelers and Pirates games. Get a fun ride on the river for about as much as North Shore parking would be. I also attended a college formal on the boat and many events with groups of newly arriving international students. The food is always fantastic, the ship is clean with plenty of indoor/outdoor seating, bathrooms, a nicely stocked bar and usually a tour guide of some sort shouting out historical facts about the city. Whether you rent out one of the ships for a formal affair or take a leisurely cruise on a Sunday afternoon (for 1 hour it is $21) it is a great time for the entire family!
