Tours

For the finest Old Sacramento sightseeing available, hop aboard one of Hornblower’s exciting river cruises. Guests see the region’s most scenic, storied sites and enjoy five-star service aboard comfortable vessels.

The Port

Set in Old Sacramento, California’s capital and the center of the state’s legendary Gold Rush story, cruises here drift down the scenic Sacramento River and provide a peek at historic sites and modern developments alike.

Our Fleet

Hornblower guests have two enticing options for exploring Sacramento: classic or contemporary. The Empress Hornblower is turn-of-the-century tradition, tracing back to a time when paddleboats were the preferred way to travel. For a sleek, modern venue, the Capitol Hornblower accommodates charter cruises as well as dockside events. Either way, guests can count on Hornblower’s signature five-star service.
