The perfect Fall activity with visiting family! Huge turn out so they upgraded us to the larger boat - I think it was great and made it more comfortable given the large crowd on a holiday weekend! Great Narrator - Really Enjoyed it!

Took the 90 min sail, it was just what we were looking for. Relaxing cruise on a nice sailboat. Everything was ontime and the 90 mins were maximized. Also decent selection of drinks available. Boat was clean.

This is a really good tour waterside. The boat is very clean and comfortable. Whether you stay in the lounge or go on deck the views are unobstructed. A bar is available. The route is the right duration and takes in all the main points of interest. The commentary is helpful and well presented with friendly staff. Strongly recommended to view the city from the water.
