Halloween Cruise on the Landing Princess |
Do I have to purchase tickets in advance?
Advance purchase is strongly recommended, as cruises often sell out quickly. To maximize your chances of getting the day and time you prefer, please buy your tickets well in advance. Tickets can only be purchased with a Visa, Mastercard or American Express.
Are children allowed on this special Halloween cruise?
This Halloween cruise is an adult-themed event and the attendance of people under 21 years old is not recommended. However, the attendance of minors is ultimately at the discretion of participants. Please keep in mind that everyone, regardless of age, will need a full-priced ticket, and that nobody under the age of 21 will be allowed to consume alcohol.
What happens if it rains?
Our captain is in constant communication with the Coast Guard and the National Weather Service. We do go out rain or shine, however we would never put our passengers in harm's way. In the event of severe weather we would remain dockside, and you will be given the opportunity to reschedule to another date or receive credit for a future event.
How many people can be on the boat at one time?
The Landing Princess is 100 feet long and can accommodate up to 149 passengers. The lower deck seats up to 90 people, and the other open decks have plenty of additional seating!
Can I bring my own food and beverages on board?
No, unfortunately personal foods and beverages are prohibited aboard the Landing Princess for insurance reasons. We do, however, have a full bar and snacks available on board for purchase!
Can I bring alcohol on the boat?
No, you cannot bring your own personal alcoholic beverages on board, but there are alcoholic beverages available for purchase on board at our full bar. Alcoholic drinks range anywhere from $3 - 6 and include liquor, beer, and wine. Specially priced $1.50 draft beers will also be available on this special Halloween cruise!
Do I need to be 21 to drink alcohol?
Yes - you must be at least 21 years of age if you plan to purchase alcoholic beverages on board. Please remember to bring government issued identification with you if you would like to purchase alcohol at the full bar on board.
Is there air conditioning/heating on board?
Yes, the lower deck is enclosed and climate controlled.
Is it customary to tip the crew?
Your crew works very hard to make sure you have the best experience possible aboard the Landing Princess. While tips are not required, they are greatly appreciated!
Is seating assigned on the tour?
No. For our sightseeing cruises seating is on a first come, first served basis. Please arrive early if you'd like to sit in a particular spot on the boat!
Are there life jackets on board?
Yes, the Landing Princess has more than enough life jackets available for all passengers at any time. However, you are not required to wear life jackets during the sightseeing cruise.
Is the boat wheelchair accessible?
Yes, the Landing Princess is wheelchair accessible, and so are the restrooms on board. Do keep in mind that the entrance to the boat is only 30 inches wide, so some larger wheelchairs and electric scooters or Segways may be more difficult to accommodate.

Is smoking allowed?
Yes, smoking is allowed on the outdoor decks in designated areas only.
Are restrooms available?
Yes! The Landing Princess has two clean restrooms on board (one for men and one for women). They are both wheelchair accessible as well.
Is the tour suitable for pregnant women?
The cruise aboard the Landing Princess should not be a problem for pregnant women as the waters are very calm and boat very stable. If you are concerned, you may want to consider consulting a doctor before attending the cruise.
Is there room to stow my belongings on board?
There is room on board to store limited belongings. If you have large personal belongings (such as a suitcase), we may ask you to keep them in our ticket booth which will be securely surveyed throughout the duration of the cruise.
Will I get seasick?
The Landing Princess is a large, stable boat and Lake Taneycomo has very calm waters. Therefore seasickness is very rare. If you are particularly prone to motion sickness, please do consider consulting your doctor before attending the cruise.
What else can I do around the meeting location?
There are plenty of great things to do at Branson Landing, from a Build-a-Bear workshop to various pro shops, fast food restaurants, and high end dining. All shops and restaurants are within walking distance from the meeting location, and historic downtown Branson is only a short two blocks away.
What about parking?
Free parking can be found at the north end of Branson Landing, near the corner of Branson Landing Boulevard and North Commercial Street next to Belks Department Store. Once you park, you can walk along Promenade Way through the shops of Branson Landing or head straight down to the boardwalk.
How far is the boat from the parking area?
The boat is about a 5 minute walk from the main parking area. If there is anyone in your party who would have difficulty walking that distance, you may drive up to the gate near the boat and drop them off before parking your car. To access the service road, please pull up to the motion sensor electronic arm, wait for the arm to rise, and drive up to the gate. Please note that there is no parking on the service road or by the gate, so after dropping your party off, please drive over to the main parking area.
Will there be souvenirs available for purchase?
Yes! We will have a gift shop opening on May 1st that will sell many different souvenirs.
Are gift certificates available?
Yes, gift certificates are available for any of our cruises on the Lake Queen or the Landing Princess. Please click on the "Contact this Seller" link if you're interested in purchasing a gift certificate.
Are private tours/charters available?
Yes! Private sightseeing tours and charters on the Lake Queen or Landing Princess are a great idea for any corporate function or special event. If you are interested in chartering a boat, please click on the "Contact this Seller" link to inquire further.
