Nice quick tour of the harbor and its history!
Please make people sit down! We could not see anything because of all the people standing and blocking everyone’s view!
Taking that cruise was on our bucket list. It was our first visit. We enjoyed cruising. It was a great experience for us. We are looking forward to cruising again and again. We were disappointed because we couldn't understand what the guide was saying, he was talking to fast. The sound was awful. The snacks were expensive. It would be nice to have a restroom on the main level. That's it.
very nice afternoon ride maybe next time we'll do a sunset cruise
The view of the area was very beautiful from the perspective of the water versus land. The ship was clean and had a variety of seating choices and food. It was not too long and was a great time to sit down and get off our feet after a long day of walking.
The cruise was nice, guide was knowledgable.
The harbor cruise was absolutely excellent! The views of the surrounding islands were breathtaking, and seeing the city skyline from the water gave us a whole new perspective. It was the perfect mix of relaxation and sightseeing. The guide did an amazing job sharing the city’s history, pointing out landmarks, and telling interesting stories that made everything come to life. We learned so much while still enjoying the fresh air and beautiful scenery. If you want stunning views, fascinating history, and a peaceful way to experience the area, this harbor cruise is a must-do. Highly recommend!
need a better sound system. he was hard to hear.
Great.
