Beyond the scenery, guests on board the Viking Mississippi will enjoy entertainment that brings the river setting to life, including performances by Delta Blues musicians and guest lecturers. Memphis Riverboats, formerly Memphis Queen Line, was a family business owned primarily by Capt. Jake Meanley and his sister Capt. Dale Lozier. Originally, the business started as the Memphis Queen Line, with the Memphis Queen II, a two-decked sternwheeler, that was built for Capt. Ed Langford in 1955 by the Dubuque Boat and Boiler Works. Due to failing health, Capt. Ed sold the vessel in 1960 to Capt. Tom Meanley, a reporter-photographer for the Memphis Press-Scimitar. Capt. Tom believed he had bought a summer job as Mississippi River Paddlewheeler pilot. A few years later, a decision was made to expand the company, his summer job became a full-time endeavor, and he decided to leave his position with the newspaper.

The business grew with the completion of the 600 passenger party barge Memphis Showboat in 1964. Followed by the addition of the true sternwheeler Belle Carol (named after Mrs. Meanley, of course), a 65 passenger vessel in 1967. Then Capt. Tom designed and built a tug, the Capt. Jake, in his own backyard.
Memphis Riverboats' online booking system is easy to use. Today, even with just a couple of hours, you can get the riverboat experience. John passed away in 1988 and Jake and Dale operated the company with the assistance of friend Jimmy Ogle, whom they knew from his earlier days at Mud Island. Capt. Jake and Capt. Dale had great plans for the business since Memphis had become a tourist destination. Capt. Dale’s sons John, and William Lozier became third generation captains and confirmed river rats having worked on ol’ Man River. American Cruise Lines' river cruises are serviced by sleek modern riverboats including the American Jazz and the American Symphony.
You can easily find detail and book cruises on the Viking website. Others still have availability, and you can currently book all the way into 2025 on the Viking website. Memphis’ identity is reflected in the Mississippi River.

It’s no wonder there were multiple (seven) proposals out on the water last year, reports Sea Suite.
