It was a great ride and a wonderful way to visit Savannah. The day was beautiful enough to enjoy the exterior of the boat both ways without seeking indoor shelter. My husband enjoyed the beers on the way back. I enjoyed the sun and wind on my face. Seeing many dolphins was a bonus too. And our picture together was a nice memory to have printed.

We had a good time. Much better than driving or taking a bus. The crew were friendly and helpful. The trolley tour once you get to Savannah is informative and a good way to get around Savannah.

It's a means of transportation. Would I do it again, probably not. We experienced motor trouble on the way to our destination, which produced billowing smoke into the guest areas. The ship was very outdated but still served the purpose. The captain and teammates were very nice and made the ride pleasurable.
