| This is a great experience. The staff was friendly and helpful the food was more than adequate. There was a bit of a line to get drinks from the bar at times - but not a really problem. The only way it could have been better would have been for it never to end. The views are spectacular and the experience of being under wind power only is wonderful. The view of the sunset behind the Golden Gate Bridge was awe inspiring. In addition to the natural beauty of this trip you get two distinctly different views of the city. At the beginning of the cruise you get to see the city beaming with sunlight and get to gain true perspective of how condensed the city is and how the so gracefully seems to envelope every square inch of earth. On the return you get to see the same city light up and open itself to Frisco's notorious night life. I almost forgot on the way down the pier you might get to meet a sea lion or two, and as you sail away from the slip you pass right by the sea lion hang out! Great GREAT GREAT trip. |

| This boat trip was disappointing. We were packed onto the boat like cattle, the boat was still loading up after we were supposed to have left. This meant that it was extremely difficult, if not impossible, to move around the boat, and we had trouble taking photos since there were so many people on the boat. We were expecting a romantic boat cruise, which this certainly wasn't.
This trip was advertised as having snacks, which consisted of one bowl of tortilla chips two small bowls of mayo dip and some rubbery vegetables which was all pretty disgusting. Plus we had a ticket for one drink at the bar where the choice was extremely limited, and further drinks were really expensive.
This trip should be advertised as what it is: a booze cruise with no food. Most of the people on this trip were already drunk when they got on and continued to be obnoxious for the rest of the journey. We felt particularly sorry for the one family who had bought their two small children along, as they had to hide inside the boat as it was both dodgy to go on the upper deck due to there being too many people, as well as a lot of drunk people.
I would not recommend this cruise to anyone, and we were sorry we had spent our hard earned $98 on it. |

| The appetizers were good. Vegetables w/ dips, Spincach dip and bread, chips and salsa. A great way to spend an evening. |

| I have been ridng on the Adventure Cat for almost 10 years and every time I ride, it is just amazing. I feel this is the best tourist attraction value in the Bay! To take an hour and a half cruise out under Golden Gate Bridge at sunset with cocktails and light snacks is fabulous for $40+ per person. I try and get out on this boat evry time I'm in SF with my wife. |

| I took my boyfriend on the sunset cruise for his birthday. It was a surprise to him and he loved it. The boat was much nicer than a ferry (which is a horrible way to take a cruise) and it was great when we sailed under the Golden Gate Bridge. Decent food, drinks were alright though it would be nice if there were cocktails rather than just beer and wine. Crew was friendly. It was pretty chilly and incredibly windy until we got the warm air off the mountains of Sausilito. This was the best part of the cruise! Perfect weather, no wind, and the sun setting below the mountains. It was a very romantic trip and I would recommend it to any couple. I don't think I'd have enjoyed it if I were with my family. It is definitely an intimate experience in my opinion. |

| Friendly staff, well worth the money. We thought it was a great trip around the bay, it gave us a close up look of Acatraz, Sausalito, and the bridge. It was very nice. We got a rather cold and windy day, which made it hard to stay out on the deck, but it was well worth it. |

Fantastic experience with great service

| I highly recommend this short jaunt around the bay at sunset. The views are spectacular and the staff are capable and friendly. The only compliant we had was that the there was a large group of teenagers on board, making it slightly crowded and noisy (my last trip was with a much smaller group). |

Very good tour, highly recommended

| This was an extremely enjoyable sunset cruise. I can think of no better way to enjoy the Bay and to see the Golden Gate bridge up close.
There was no commentary to point out what we were seeing, but that didn't really matter to us; just thought I should point it out incase others want a guided tour of the Bay. I
suspect also that much of our enjoyment was due to the very fine weather we experienced - sunny, 80 degrees, water as calm as it gets - and that this might not be quite such a pleasant cruise in heavy fog, 60 degrees, choppy. Obviously that's not something the tour company can do anything about, but bear it in mind when deciding on the tour. The catamaran does have a well sheltered comfortable cabin which would be fine for poorer weatherm but the experience overall would not be so good. |
