Great cruise. Great views of the San Francisco skyline, the Golden Gate Bridge and the Bay Bridge as well as Alcatraz. Smooth water. We even saw a whale and a dolphin.

The weather was perfect for a lovely tour. Unfortunately I could not hear the commentator over the ship’s engine. I tried to move to another area & could not hear the information.

Nice trip. Enjoyed the views and service. It can be very windy so be prepared for that. Audio headsets are available but in limited supply.

The experience was great. The bartender was very busy but did an awesome job. The tape may need to be updated.

The cruise was as advertised. The boat is nice, with several decks and the option of inside and outdoor seating. Reasonably priced cash bar- $8 mimosas when we went! The only negative for us was difficulty hearing the recorded narration (and that it is recorded vs having a live person narrate in real time). But overall, a solid experience and pretty good value.
