Gina, our hostess, was amazing. She went above and beyond and definitely spoiled us the entire time. Everything from the food to the music was wonderful. We opted not to purchase the drink package. If you plan to have more than one drink in addition to the welcome champagne, buy the drink package.

The VIP ticket is the best way to do the Paddle boat cruise! Gina was our hostess and she was amazing. She attended to our every need. She was personable, friendly and invested into making our experience the best it could be. The personal tour with the Captain of the Boat was very interesting. He was also very likable and enjoyed answering our questions. I only wish he could have had a mic on somehow so we could hear him better over the live music. The live jazz band was really good and added so much to the experience. The food was delicious! There was so much food we couldn't eat it all, including dessert. If you are thinking about doing this dinner cruise, pay the extra money and get the VIP ticket. You will not be sorry!
