This is a great tour. The instructor and crew were very polite. The 'guide' consistently provided the wow factor for the tourists.

I highly recommend this cruise. Our group of friends got together to celebrate a birthday. We had a wonderful time. The tour is pleasant and the mansions on "millionaire's row" are unbelievable. The boat was clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The bartender even made a special "birthday" punch for my friend. The captain gave an interesting and funny tour. This is a very enjoyable way to entertain friends or just to see the sights. We will be back!

Something nice to do for a day

If you are looking for luxurious, this is not the boat for you. It was nice, and clean and the tour was good. Something different to do for a day and is a nice area for lunch afterwards. The top of the boat is lined with plastic chairs, not what i expected, but was fine. The inside underneath had cool AC and was very quiet. A nice break from the little kids onboard. Worth the price for sure.

An enjoyable and educational tour. The guides were very knowledgeable about the area and it's history. The boat was very comfortable with 360 degree viewing at the upper level. I will definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a boat tour in the Fort Lauderdale area.

Captain is very entertaining. Boat is comfortable.

I really enjoyed the captain's stories of who owns what mansion/yacht and how much it cost. I wasn't expecting to learn as much as I did. He may have missed his calling as a stand up comic. The 1.5 hr length of cruise is perfect to get a feel for the waterway and went by fast. My young son was able to move around the boat, eat a snack at a table and use the washroom, which was convenient as those travelling with kids know. All of the crew was nice and helpful.

Did not honor free drinks and $4 parking on websit
Mon, Feb 20, 12   3:00 PM lawlawchan Male 30-39 Local Family With Children
Too much focus (or entire focus) of the tour is materialist, and showing off how rich those people are, and how much wealth gap there is. Not much mention on culture, scenery and history of the locality. After a while, I just ignore turned off to what the captain is saying, and I don't want to leave this trip with my mind focusing on money alone, how much money i need to make, etc and feeling depressed. Also the on their website it mentioned $4 all day parking but it was not honored. I saw another place where it said there are free drinks if you purchase tickets online. It was not honored neither.

Good to take out of town relatives
Sun, Feb 19, 12   1:00 PM TomCole123 Female 30-39 Local Family With Children
I live in Fort Lauderdale, but try and take visiting relatives on a boat tour whenever they first come visit. While the trip is a bit pricy, the snacks are WAY expensive, and the captain is about as cheesy as you can get, it's still a great time. The homes and waterways are beautiful, and if you get a moderately sunny day with a good breeze, you're golden. Everyone had a good time, and it let them see the city from a different angle. It's not an every day activity, but for special occasions and out of town visitors, I recommend the Venice of America Tour.

Great cruise and I highly recommend it, but they used to give out free liquor the entire cruise... now they don't, which is a mistake. Please bring the all-you-can-drink back!
