Very interesting information! Told in a very entertaining way. Did not know there was this kind of history in the area. Would definitely recommend.

We had a great experience. It was our first time on the tour and we learned a ton! Our Captain was very knowledgeable and was quick to answer any questions we had. The river was beautiful and we got to see some of the pretty sites in Frankfort. I would recommend this tour for locals who haven't before and for any visitors who come to this charming town.

Thank you so much. We love sharing the river with all, but locals are special since many do not know how wonderful our back yards are!

The Captain was extremely knowledgeable and informative. We enjoyed our entire time on the river. From current events to historical evolving of names, the tour covered it all.
