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".

5.00The staying afloat boat cruises was an excellent experience. My wife and I had a wonderful time seeing downtown fort lauderdale. BJ and captain Ricky felt like they would go out of their way to ensure you enjoyed your tour. Seeing all the houses and getting an idea of who lived in the area was great and the scenery is tough to beat.
Great fun

5.00The boat ride was so peaceful, and very nice. More of a party boat atmosphere i’m sure it definitely could get super fun with the right group!! The captain and first mate were so nice gave us a little bit of history on Fort Lauderdale!
Beautiful ride

4.00This was a great evening. The only suggestion would be for the guides to have a microphone. It was difficult to hear.
