We had a blast with First Mate Goose and Captain Maverick! They were kind, knowledgeable and so funny! We learned so many neat facts about Waco and it’s history and current events happening with the city. Would HIGHLY recommend both the Classic Tour and the River Tour at the beginning of your trip! Thank you for taking that leap of faith and creating an experience for visitors.

We are SO GLAD we booked this cruise! Captain Adan and First Mate Brendon were knowledgeable and fun. As for safety, we felt completely confident we were in good hands. They were both highly experienced and clearly at home on the river. The river is gorgeous and, coupled with the mix of narration and cruising to great music, it was perfectly perfect. Throw in a gorgeous sunset and a delicious onboard treat and you have an unbeatable experience!
