We wanted to see the lights from a different perspective so we booked this tour. The lights from the water were gorgeous. The crew was knowledgeable and fun. They took the time to mingle with the passengers and offer to take pictures. There is a bar on board with very reasonable prices. There are a number of boat tour companies in the area but what sets this one a part is the crew! I will book again.

We went on the tour on a weekday. The crew was excellent. They knew the area around St. Augustine. They were professional and were able describe many points of interest, which the riders could see from the water. Even though it was cold outside, the boat had curtains to keep the cold out, and there were many wool blankets free of charge. THere was hot drinks-free, and adult beverages-for sale. The onboard bathroom was clean and well stocked. Will be back for other cruises.

My husband and I took the 7:15 tour. The boat was docked at the Camachee Cove Yacht Harbor, which was not walkable from our B&B near the Lightner Museum. (It is not the harbor near the Bridge of Lions.) A pay bar was open, and hot chocolate was given out for free. It was a freezing cold night, so the provided blankets were much appreciated. Both the captain and the guide were funny and entertaining. We also learned a lot about the history of St. Augustine on the ride. It was definitely worth seeing the lights from a whole new perspective. Just beautiful!
