The adults-only cruise promises sweeping views of the Pittsburgh skyline from downtown to Heinz Field and beyond. And, you’ll enjoy a delightful array of hors d’oeuvres, good company, and delicious drinks.
Gather a group of friends together - or make it a date for two - for an unforgettable evening aboard the Gateway Clipper Fleet's newest event: The wine tasting cruise.
Once a month from June through November, the Gateway Clipper will set sail on a wine tasting adventure that will tantalize your taste buds. And, each cruise features a different theme.
Pair your wine with hors d’oeuvres from the buffet. The season's buffet includes such delectable choices as grilled Italian sausage, baked mac and cheese, and seasonal fresh fruit.
Of course, your wine tasting experience also comes with insight into the wine region - and the types of wine - featured. A wine expert will be on hand for each cruise.
Other themes during the 2018 season include the Wines of Spain, Rose on the River, and the Wines of Italy. Passengers must be 21 or older and must provide valid ID upon boarding.
Wine tasting cruises begin boarding at 5:54 p.m. and set sail from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m., promising perfect views of a Pittsburgh sunset and the city skyline awash in shimmering lights.
