Good value for the experience
Sat, Apr 18, 09   2:00 PM SLESLIE Female 50-59 International Tourist(s) Group of Friends
My husband and I had done a similar tour once before through the cruise ship which we had thoroughly enjoyed. This time we brought some friends who'd never been to Fort Lauderdale before and wanted them to have the same experience. The timing worked out very well - an hour and a half was a good length of time for this tour (the other one was a lot longer because it included other sightseeing which we did not need). The narration was humorous and timely and the staff was friendly. The tour was well worth the money (it also included wine or beer). I did object to having had to paid $2.00 more per person by booking over the Internet. We could have just gone to the ticket booth when we got there (it wasn't at all busy) and paid $20 instead of the $22 we'd paid in advance. It was handy to have made the reservations in advance and we were able to get on the next available tour even though our reservation was for two hours later. We were disappointed that the entire Riverfront complex was so dead - I guess a casualty of the current economy. The touristy atmosphere was gone with so many restaurants and shops having closed down. Overall a good experience. I would recommend it.

The mansions on the intercoastal are amazing, and the tour guide is very knowledgeable. Don't forget to bring a camera!

SIT BACK AND RELAX

The "Good"---Take the Riverfront tour and bring your sunscreen! It's a nice, relaxing ride....not quite long enough to plan your whole day around, but well worth the price. Daytime tours are sun-filled, so bring water! The crew is nice and the Captain is knowledgeable, however, if you are so busy talking to other passengers, you'll miss the humor the Captain relates in his tour narration. Paying attention is half the fun! Just feet away from the ship are good, outdoor eateries, but food and drink are also available on board. Again, if you pay attention to the narration, you'll have the opportunity to win a free drink with a guessing game. My tour was on Wednesday at half-price, with drinks not included but tours with included drinks are also available for a few dollars more, without breaking the bank! Either way, it's fun. The "Bad"---Know where you are going when you drive to the boat! This location is not easy to find. Your can park on either side of the river but you'll take a hike if you choose the side near the jail. Bring a good pair of sneakers and have have plenty of change on hand for parking meters! If you park on the same side of the river as the tour is located, there is a parking deck but bring a hand-held GPS unit to get you to the ticket booth! All-in-all, it's a good time for all. Bring a few dollars to tip the crew and have a good, digital camera in hand and ready to use. Say thanks to the Captain! Remember, don't be sooooo busy talking that you miss the narration and keep in mind that others will miss what is said because you are talking! As an added bonus, if you have some free time, watch how long it takes for the train to come across the bridge once the warning sounds and the bridge lowers! Hint, bring a deck of cards or a scrabble board while waiting for the train!

Cool Tour

This was a cool little tour. Grab a snack at the Riverfront area and get on the boat. Just a nice little cruise where you can see some nice homes and ride on the water. Priced right and doesn't consume your whole day.

What an experience.

I had the privilege of taking the Venice of America Tour on March 11th, and I highly recommend it for those who enjoy boating and seeing spectacular houses. Definitely bring your camera to get some great pics to show to the folks back home. The tour guide was great in giving information about the many houses and boats on the tour.

misleading advertising
Sun, Mar 8, 09   5:00 PM JPUNZAK Female 70+ Unspecified Unspecified
Trip just 1 hr; not the 1 1/2 hour advertised. Free beverages is just one drink (wine, beer or soda) need to pay for extras. No free snacks The boat ride was very enjoyable as was the tour. There seems to be other boat tour companies that offer longer ride at same price. The man at the ticketing booth was not courteous--insisted on me giving the paper that I had written down the confirmation # on. I did not have a pre-printed e-confirmation. So, even though the trip was very pleasurable; my opinion of this tour company is not.

Nice, but
Fri, Feb 20, 09   3:30 PM garysky1 Male 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
The tour and commentary was great. It is much better than the Water Taxi, and our group really enjoyed it. However, the advertising states that there is a bar onboard and the price includes one drink. The tickets then have all liquor crossed off, so it appears to be a bait and switch or at the very least, cutbacks.

Nice time

We had a good time. The staff was friendly, the information was fun to hear and we had a nice time looking at the houses and large boats. I would recommend this to anyone, there were older people on our tour and kids, everyone seemed to have a good time.

My husband and I enjoyed all the information that was given. He grew up and Florida and didn't know half of the information we received. It was also very relaxing after a stressful week.
