Dress warmly/ appropriately for the strong winds on the water. If you go to the top of the boat, be prepared for the winds and rocking of the boat near the bridge. Great views of the city..The sky was perfectly blue with puffs of white clouds..so beautiful!

Good Experience - boat left on time and came back on time. The audio tour guide was very insightful and just the right amount of information provided as we crossed some of the famous landmarks. There was enough space on the boat that it didnt feel super rushed or crowded with everyone being able to take the pics and videos they wanted.
