Step back in time aboard the Midwest's most unique and historic riverboat as it travels the Illinois River valley between Peoria and Starved Rock State Park.  The Spirit of Peoria is a full-blown replica of the nineteenth century riverboats that used to inhabit the nation's waterways.  Decorated in the "wedding cake" style, the Spirit mirrors a Mark Twain era riverboat, complete with an enormous 21-foot diameter paddle wheel!

This excursion features two days of cruising along with an overnight at the historic Starved Rock Lodge.  Built by the Civilian Conservation Corps, the lodge offers rustic charm with modern conveniences.
