Two Tickets to a Sightseeing Cruise from Dubuque River Rides
You can never step into the same river twice, except through the controversial practice of river cloning. Tread in overly familiar waters with today’s Groupon to Dubuque River Rides in Dubuque. Choose between the following options: • For $26, you get two tickets to the two-hour Eco/Historic Sightseeing Cruise, valid Sunday–Friday (up to a $52.78 value). • For $26, you get two tickets to the two-hour Eco/Historic Sightseeing Cruise, valid on Saturday only (up to a $52.78 value). Cruises depart daily at 11:30 a.m. Dubuque River Rides tootles travelers down the Mississippi River aboard the SPIRIT of Dubuque , a full-scale replica of a 19th-century paddlewheel steamboat. Each narrated sightseeing cruise sets sail from the Dubuque Ice Harbor, riveting travelers with a glimpse of Dubuque’s famed Lock and Dam No. 11, which raises and lowers the waters of the Mississippi to facilitate travel and the search for commuting sea monsters. Later in the two-hour jaunt, fluvial paths cross with the swing-span bridge of the Chicago Central Pacific Railroad, first built in 1868, and Dubuque’s Shot Tower, one of the last remaining towers of its kind in the United States. A cadre of area wildlife, including turtles, herons, bald eagles, and feral park rangers, are also known to make cameos downstream. Epitomizing its old-time feel, smokestacks crown the SPIRIT and an open-air deck ensconces boaters for easy sightseeing. Though fare is not included in this Groupon, a Victorian dining salon bedecked in red and gold harkens back to the days of riverboat gambling, keeping guests in cheery spirits with concessions, a full bar, and waiters dressed like the jack of clubs.

Brandishing Dermalogica products, Wendy exiles acne, dryness, and signs of aging without the interference of traditional product fillers such as mineral oil and fragrance. While the relaxing one-hour facial takes place, a paraffin treatment moisturizes palms with a thin coat of wax, which is the secret behind wax museum statues’ smooth, lifelike handshakes. Those seeking to update ‘dos can book the attentions of Wendy K, who snips and shapes hair into face-flattering frames before coating locks in Framesi color for a single-dimension hue.
