I booked this experience for my partner's birthday and let's say that it very much exceeded my expectations. Went at the end of May and On the Water the breeze is nippy. Take a Jacket.

Thank you for your review. We are thrilled you enjoyed your tour with us. We hope you will return soon.
There is an issue, while booking it showed us time to board as 8:30PM. But when we went there by that time, boat had already left as it was at 8:00 PM. we found from security guards in the area, many people are missing the rides in last few weeks.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are very sorry to hear that you missed your cruise and understand how disappointing that must have been. To clarify, your tickets were for the 8:30 PM departure, which refers to the boat's scheduled departure time rather than the start of boarding. As noted in the special instructions included with your ticket, guests are asked to arrive 30 minutes prior to departure, and the vessel departs promptly at the scheduled time. We would also like to note that the security personnel along the Riverwalk are not employees of First Lady Cruises. Given the number of attractions and cruise operators in the area, we occasionally encounter situations where guests are directed incorrectly or arrive at the wrong location. While this is uncommon, we understand how frustrating it can be when it happens. We sincerely apologize for your experience and would be happy to offer an exchange for a future cruise date. Please contact our team directly at clientservice@firstlady.com, and we will be glad to assist.

Fun night time cruise with a great up close view of the fireworks. It was really cold so most of us were in the lounge. Bring layers as the wind was chilly. My only complaint was that the speaker in the lounge wasn't so great to hear all the interesting commentary.
The crew were very friendly and professional. Great viewing opportunities. I enjoyed the guide’s humor.
Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re really glad to hear you enjoyed the cruise and that the crew made you feel welcome and well taken care of.
