Beautiful scenery; friendly crew. Buffett was good but food was not replenished as consumed. There was enough fruit and vegetables; more sandwiches and desserts needed.

Good way to see the bay at sunset. The views are lovely and there is a good atmosphere on the boat. The food they serve is enjoyable. Bring a jacket though it gets very windy and chilly! Good tour company centrally based with a lot of experience.

The SF Bay Sunset Cruise via the Red and White fleet was overall, an amazing experience! I was impressed by the array of appetizers and bar selection, and was wow'ed by the views. As a bay area local, I knew it'd be cold and windy - DRESS WARMLY. Even if it seems warm in the city during the day, it'll be chilly out on the water. There were quite a few people dressed up, and they ended up spending most of their time inside. This isn't a Hornblower cruise - casual is okay and you'll enjoy it more if you're able to soak in the views. On our particular night there was a ton of fog which made the Golden Gate Bridge completely unseen, but it was 100% clear further north onto Tiburon/Sausalito. Overall, a good time and a great value!
