What To Expect
Fort Lauderdale
We tour the yachts and mansions as we cruise through downtown Fort Lauderdale. As yacht capital of the world, this city has plenty of awesome sights to see. Your Captain and Crew will guide you through some of the notable owners while you enjoy the scenic route. Enjoy sunset while cruising past the Yacht Club with a nice view of Downtown in the background.
Port Everglades
Our tour coasts through this massive port to explore the cruise ships and cargo freighters that pass through. This also gives you a perspective of how much water we are surrounded by in South Florida. With 160 miles of canals, no wonder they call it the "Venice of America".

Very misleading!! Boat took us to sandbar where there was drinking and offensive music blasted. Not an “evening cruise”

1.00“Evening cruise through Downtown Ft Lauderdale” was a boat that went to a sandbar and sat for 1.5 hours. Don’t be mislead
So much fun!

4.00It was a great time to be with family. Captain Ross and Captain Damian took good care of us and gave us not only a humorous run down of the beautiful houses and yachts but were fun to interact with on a personal level.

5.00Bring your bathing suits and towels because the boat does stop and you can swim. It can get a little rowdy with young people so be mindful of this. The guide and boat driver were great.

5.00Beautiful views, great music and a fun time! Just make sure to bring a jacket if it’s cold! 😉 the staff was so friendly and knowledgeable. It was so neat hearing the stories behind all the homes on the waterfront. I’ve never seen houses like this!
Good safe fun

5.00We went for the holiday lights tour right after Christmas. It was a mix of adults hanging out enjoying the party & families. We were entertained by the information given about some of the houses and got to dance to the music on the 2 hour cruise. The captain Britto and first mate BJ made sure everyone was safe & having a great time. Would recommend
