Best of Nashville Voting is ON!

It’s that time of year again! The “Best of Nashville” competition from the Nashville Scene is back. Voting is officially open and runs through September 4th! Will you help us secure our 3rd straight title of Nashville’s Best Water Activity? We sure hope so!

Here’s what you need to do:

1. Head to the Best of Nashville 2024 voting platform (we’re in the People & Places category)

2. Create an account (don’t worry, you don’t have to subscribe to anything, this just saves your progress!)

3. Type our name, River Queen Voyages, in the “Best Water Activity” spot in the “People & Places” category

4. Click “save”

5. Cast a vote in at least 20 other categories for your ballot to count! So show some other local favorites your love…maybe even write us in for a few other things? You do you!

6. Spread the word! It is going to take a LOT of votes to lock this down, so please get your friends to vote. We will love you forever! (Okay, we already do…but still!)
