When I initially booked the boat ride, it said it included hot chocolate but when I paid for it, there was no longer any hot chocolate. Otherwise, the boat ride was great and we got to see the light exhibit. The boat was a little late and there was so confusion as to whether our names were on the list but I had the printout and the emails confirming the trip.

As advertised. Everything was perfect. It was exactly as the description said and the staff were very informative on the sites.

Very nice owner/operators. Drinks and snacks were good. Try to sit in the front of the boat by the opening.

Unfortunately, we never took the boat ride, it was supposed to depart at 8:30 and prior to departure. We received news that it would be an hour late. We then came back at 9:15 because we were told to be at the dock 15 minutes prior and by 9:30 they were still no boat. At 9:40 I reached out to buy a tour and they told me there was no update. I then asked for a refund and I’m still waiting for it at this time. They stated “traffic” as an issue but there were several other boats going back and forth and one of the other captains I talked to said there was no issue on the canal.
