| I invited a few friends to join myself and a friend visiting from Ireland. We felt immediately welcomed and there was a joyful sense of commaraderie with our fellow passengers...a sort of "we're all in this together" vibe.
It was a beautiful, typical, San Francisco evening. The Bay was relatively calm but our Captain made sure we hit enough swells to make everyone go "Whoa!".
We were on the sunset cruise, with complimentary drinks and snacks. I managed the red wine without spilling a drop (until a friend backed into me), but I had trouble navigating the wine, my balance and the snacks. The snacks were a little bit boring anyway - of the chips and salsa variety - so I avoided them.
Besides, we weren't there for the chips and salsa - it was the fresh air, a chance to be under the Golden Gate, the sense of adventure for someone who spends most of her time on terra firma.
It was a great evening that I recommend to anyone with guests visiting the Bay Area for the first time. We followed our AdventureCat experience with hot Irish Coffees and a good meal - a perfect evening. |

| The ride is spectacular........why anyone would do a ferry cruise when you can do this is beyond me. Intimate boat with spectacular views and a thrill ride out on the bow! |

| This was a great tour with a very good crew. The scenery was beautiful, the food and drink were very nice, which made it all worth the price of the ticket. One note, it is cold on the water so remember to dress warm although AdventureCat does provide jackets. |

| The catamaran is nicely set up so you can walk outside on the front of the boat, or sit in comfort (and protected from the winds) in the middle. It was cold when the boat was going full speed - they gave us jackets but you should bring a scarf/hat too.Pretty neat to be out there seeing all the sights from the water, and riding under the golden gate.
It wasn't clear to me from the website how many people fit on the boat; in our trip there were about 25 people, but there was plenty of room for everyone. |

| We were lucky enough to have really nice weather, which might make a difference. The boat was large enough to have room to move around and to get inside if you got too cold (or wet), but small enough to really feel that you're out on the water (and to get wet, if you want to). The crew was friendly and competent. There's enough cheese and crackers to go around, and you get two drinks (beer, wine, or nonalcoholic) included. We cruised close by Alcatraz, under the Golden Gate bridge, and back around the other side of Alcatraz. Definitely a fun way to spend some time on the Bay. |

| This was our first sunset cruise on AdventureCat, and our first time on the smaller catamaran. We have often taken these cruises during the day, and always enjoy them. This time we brought a visitor from Canada, who loved it.
The sunset version was great, and the smaller cat is more nimble. This means more splashing of water through the nets in front, but that's the point, after all.
My only recommendation: be SURE to bring warm windproof clothing! We appreciate AdventureCat's making jackets available for a few of us. Plus the munchies were nice as well.
We will do this again, for sure. |

| We had an enjoyable time -- given the summer longer days, however, the Summer Sunset Cruise didn't really prove to be very much sunset. viewing
That said, the weather was lovely, our view of the Bay was clear and, in particular, seeing the Golden Gate Bridge from the view we had traveling below it was very cool! |
