Very nice dinner and cruise around the harbor. The food was good and the service was excellent. The music was nice and set a fun and friendly atmosphere. We were seated with another couple as it was 4+ tables seating. It was very nice to meet them. We all had a wonderful time together. We would definitely do it again.

A few years ago my wife I did this dinner cruise. At that time the cruise went out further out in the harbor. This time the cruise went in circles around the Cooper River bridge more than six times. I stopped counting seeing the bridge after six. I remember the previous cruise went further and I saw the Cooper River Bridge going out and coming back. Cruisers had to pay an additional $6 for desert. Why can’t the desert be included in the price of the cruise. The singer was reading her music from a tablet and did not know all the words. Shouldn’t an entertainer practice and know the words before an event?

I loved our hostess Patrick hospitality. He was very informative about the menu and his customer Service was authentic. I clicked with Patrick when he came to introduce himself at my table. I believe Patrick will go further in life with his beautiful personality. Keep up the excellent job Patrick.!!!!

Check in was fast but not very informative. We were not told anything of if breakfast was available only dinner and bar hours. We were told where to find the fitness center. Normally you are offered the complimentary warm cookie… my husband had to ask for it on our second day on our way going back up to the room.

We took this tour several years ago and enjoyed it. However, this time we were very disappointed. The first time, we cruised past fort S:umter, and then past many bautiful old homes and the Battery. This time wewent under the Ravenel Bridge and then up the Cooper River. We past endless shipyards, container ships and Navy vessels. Then the ship turned around and and we returned the same we we had just come. The dinner was underwhelming. The green beans were undercooked (to our tastes), crunchy. The chicken was bland an relaltively flavorless; the beef was overcooked and dry. The wait staff was very good, although our main course was not served to us until about 25 min. beffore the cruise ended. The music was a guitar player, singer. However we could not hear him because of othe loudly partying passengers. He did play a couple of songs that were popular and the other passengers listened and joined in singing. My wife and I were celebrating our 62 anniversary, and were very disappointed in the cruise. We would not recommend it!
