Nice trip up and down the river. The great thing is the motor is electric so no noise or gas smell. Love the fact that you could talk and get to know your fellow passengers. It was a great experience. You can’t beat the price.

Wonderfull ride with amazing views. Wished I'd book a longer trip. Electric boat was so much better than conventional.

It was wonderful going on a solar boat being so quiet and without any exhaust. The day we had was beautiful and the scenery was breathtaking! When searching for the boat location it is off to the side not with the other boats in the front. Use Mapquest to help with the exact location. It would be nice if there was more information about the area provided during the tour.

We arrived 10 minutes before boarding the boat. It was raining so the boat had rain protection, which was nice. Beautiful and relaxing boat ride. Tasted 2 wines and some nuts. Nice tour, quiet boat.

Very pleasant 1hr trip on ecofriendly boat. Captain and tour guide friendly and informative. Tasting of 2 local wines plus almonds from the area. Recommend this trip as very relaxing and less crowded than bigger boats as only 8 of us. Error over change of departure time due to Viator not updating their booking information and sending incorrect time right up to embarkation.
