we had a great time. i suggest getting in like 40 mins to an hour ahead of boarding time. our tour was sold out. not everyone is guaranteed a seat. beware if you grab a table you might spend a good portion of the cruise staring at other peoples behinds. i suggest grabbing rail side seats if you can. we skipped the lunch having just ate but the lunchroom seemed nice. bathrooms were clean. music was nice. bar servide was really lacking. there was one girl on the top deck who couldn’t even muster the care to greet you, let alone move at a pace above glacier lol. the bloody mary was decent. there was a woman on board who was fantastic, friendly, went around and offered to take pictures for people, and shared information. they require proof of vaccine or negative test just an fyi and if you buy your tickets online you have to redeem them for paper tickets at the booth which is located near where you board, to get on the boat.

Thank you. Yes, we did require vaccination proof based on the City mandate. The government removed that mandate on March 21st.

We really enjoyed our lunch with a beautiful cruise around the harbor. Learned some information we did not know before arriving.
