I want to thank this company for being so kind to us. We were trying to get this excursion in before our vacation ended and arrived with only 10 minutes to spare. The gentleman who sold us the tickets allowed us to use his pass to park right at the pier so we didn't have to hunt around frantically for a spot. This is what I call going above and beyond and if you believe in Karma then well, you know what's coming your way...some fortunate circumstance. Besides this act of kindness, the cruise itself was very nice and well narrated by the man behind the mic. We enjoyed it immensely and found it to be very good value. Thanks again and you will be remembered. Pay it forward I say as I go and do my good deed of the day!

The Carrie B was a great cruise. I went on with my girlfriend last week to the 3pm cruise and it was very interesting. We have been on other tour boats for previous day dates, but so far this was the better of the three. The Captain and Narrator was informative and definitely knew what he was talking about. We even got to have a few pina coladas while onboard. Delicious. We saw a cruise ship that was in port and toys of the rich and famous. Actually we are planning on going back in Winter when there are several cruise ships in port. Overall it was a great hour and a half. Ideal to do as a couple or family.

Follow the other posts, and park at the Cheesecake Factory parking garage. Not cheap, but easy and convenient. We opted for a 11am Thursday cruise. The cruise was not full, only about 30 people on board. The tour guide was knowledgeable and made a few lame attempts at humor. The tour was nice, a good time killer, and just good to be out on the water. Don't waste your money at the snack bar on the boat. It is overpriced and is only convenient. Your better off saving your appetite,and walking down Las Olas afterwards and dining there. Our hotel tried to send us to a different vendor, but went with Carrie B because of this site. I think they are all the same, but we were happy with the trip overall.
