Overview
Discover river history aboard The Chief Uncas, our historic 1912 electric boat that departs from the Zimmerman Center dock. Tours are available seasonally between June and October.
River Discovery Boat Tours: SNHA staff guide 22 passengers on a one-hour tour of the Susquehanna River, sharing the history of the Chief Uncas, stories of Lake Clarke’s special landscape, and the Susquehanna River’s lasting legacy! You will experience the joy of being on the water aboard a historic vessel, hear stories of the river, and view beautiful scenery and wildlife.
Sunset Cruises: Join SNHA on these specialty 90-minute evening cruises. Limited to 14 passengers, these cruises offer you the chance to roam the historic Chief Uncas as it silently cruises down the river. Use its original ice box to store your cold drinks and watch its vintage lights glow as the sun sets on the Susquehanna.
