Our captains know the Columbia River intimately. They know its light at golden hour, its hidden coves, and exactly how to make your group feel like the only people on the water.

Our Story

Born on the Columbia.
Built for your best evening.

One of the most stunning waterways in the Pacific Northwest — and most people were experiencing it from crowded tour boats, surrounded by strangers, feeling anything but special.

We built Lux X Charters to change that. Private, intimate, entirely yours — where the Columbia River becomes the backdrop for moments you'll actually remember.
