Underwhelming

For the price this was underwhelming. I was very surprised when we went away from downtown on the majority of the cruise to see businesses along the river. There weren’t very many sites to see!

History x Music = Fun

A great history lesson for the region and a lovely boat. The live musician was a wonderful performer!

Boat ride was great, guide was a snob

Ride itself was relaxing and nice. The music by Andy was great. The tour guide Jimbo was rude and a massive snob. I tried to ask him a question, ignored me and brushed me off, too busy, while he was going to talk to others. Not sure what his problem was.

Nice!!!

Such a nice time. It was my husband’s first on a boat, but he thoroughly enjoyed it. So did I! The captains and staff are so friendly. Ps. If you do not drink alcohol, grab a strawberry sprite from the bartender. It’s delightful!!!

Great way to spend a few hours on the river

Great way to spend the afternoon on the river. Merit the lady on the guitar is so talented, jimbo the man with the commentary was so informative. If thinking of doing it, book it you won't be disappointed

Good but lacking

Really enjoyed the experience minus the live music. I dont mind live music but it would be nice if 1) it was better and 2) if there was a section to not have to hear it. Seating kinda sucks. Food was definitely right out of the freezer. Not worth the price. Overall a good time.
