Cincinnati offers year-around fun! Visiting in the summer you can enjoy the outdoor adventures of Kings Island. Thrill seekers will not want to miss Kings Island’s newest roller coaster - Diamondback. The tallest, fastest, meanest roller coaster at Kings Island, Diamondback stands 230 feet at its highest point and features 10 vertical drops and two helixes - one with a splashdown ending.

Your entire family will enjoy cruising along the Ohio River on one of BB Riverboats historical steamboats. BB Riverboats offers one of the most unique views of the city with lunch, dinner and sightseeing tours. The BB Riverboats fleet consists of the Belle of Cincinnati, River Queen, and Mark Twain. The flagship of BB Riverboats, the Belle of Cincinnati, is a majestic and ornate beauty with lavish Victorian decor. The upper deck is open-air, perfect for watching the scenery.

If you’re seeking culture and adventure, visit our wide variety of museums. Recently named one of the top 50 architecturally significant buildings in America by the American Institute of Architects and perhaps one of the most recognizable and treasured buildings in Cincinnati, Cincinnati Museum Center at Union Terminal offers history, culture, education, and fun. Housed inside the Cincinnati Museum Center you will find the Cincinnati History Museum, Duke Energy Children’s Museum, Museum of Natural History & Science, and the OMNIMAX Theatre. 2009 special exhibition, Dinosaurs Unearthed will take you back in time with its more than 20 life-sized roaring, moving dinosaurs, full skeletons, fossils and reports on significant dinosaur discoveries (runs through Sept. 7th.)

Cincinnati Reds fans and baseball fans alike will enjoy the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame and Museum. Created in the honor of the home of professional baseball, the history of the Reds from inception to modern times is shown in the world’s largest public collection of Reds memorabilia and artifacts. As you enter the hall you will be stunned by the 50-foot high “wall of balls” honoring the record 4,256 hits in Pete Rose’s career.

When it comes to great food, Cincinnati has got your covered. Be sure to take in the unique Cincinnati dining venues like Skyline Chili, Montgomery Inn, LaRosa’s and finish off with a sweet treat from Graeter’s Ice Cream.
