Don’t book this if you...

Don’t book this if you have hearing problems it’s difficult to hear the guide while they’re speaking. The boats are a bit small can be crowded and can be difficult to take good pictures unless you have a good seat. Weather was great and our guide was very nice, but overall on average ride down the St. Lawrence river. 10%

The sunset cruise was wonderful; we had perfect weather. If you can, ask for Alex, he was a great cruise captain!

Pretty Good

I went on this boat tour with my family. The tour and the sunset sightline were beautiful, however the best part was the high speed ride along the river and sightseeing along the way. Our tour guide, Dominic, hit the throttle and let that boat ride. It was incredible and my favorite part of the tour.

Operator response

Dominic will be pleased to know that he made your tour such a memorable one! We hope to welcome you back for another adventure in Montreal. Au plaisir, The Wet Set MTL Team

It wasn’t really a tour,...

It wasn’t really a tour, it was more of a high speed whizz around the river, not learning anything about Montréal. It was fun, but not what we were expecting.

Operator response

Bonjour, Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you still found the ride fun, but we’re sorry the experience did not match your expectations. Our sunset tour is designed as a scenic boat experience with views of Montreal from the St. Lawrence rather than a detailed historical guided tour. That said, we appreciate your comment and will work on making the description of the experience even clearer for future guests. Au plaisir, Wet Set MTL

Unforgettable

My wife and I had an unforgettable sunset cruise! We lucked out on the gorgeous sunset-and-clouds! Our captain Amire (? apologies if I got name wrong) was great: knew his stuff and was an expert in guiding the boat. And we had comfy seats too!! As two retired professors, we appreciated how much and little he spoke.

Operator response

Bonjour, Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We’re very happy that you and your wife had such a memorable sunset cruise. We’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to your captain. We’re especially glad you appreciated both his knowledge and the balance of information during the tour. Thank you again, and we hope to welcome you back on board someday! Au plaisir, Wet Set MTL

Lots of fun

Very hard to find the boat on the pier - no helpful signs. It is a small speedboat. The ride itself was scenic and fun.

Operator response

Bonjour, Thank you for your review. We’re glad you enjoyed the scenic and fun boat ride. We’re aware that finding the departure point in the Old Port can sometimes be difficult, and we understand your comment regarding the signage. We are working on improving the directions and visibility at the dock to make arrival easier for our guests. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you back on board. Au plaisir, Wet Set MTL
