Padelford Riverboats
About & History:
Founded in 1969 by Capt. William D. Bowell, Sr. the Padelford Riverboats operate today from Saint Paul’s Harriet Island Regional Park. More than 4 million guests have boarded the Padelford Riverboats for one of the most unique experiences in the Twin Cities area—a scenic cruise down the Mississippi River aboard the historic Padelford passenger vessels.

Your team did an absolute superb job and everyone in attendance had overwhelmingly positive comments to make about the boat, food, and the experience in general. The trip up through the lock really impressed everyone! | ![]() |
