4.00A lot of yachts and very expensive homes. Interesting history. The guides were great! The only downside for us was that the tour didn't let us know that the 5pm cruise was not going to ocurr. Thankfully for us wd walked down around noon yhe day of the cruise and the captain let us get on the 3:30 boat, otherwise we would have missed it.

4.00It's not bad, but we rebooked due to weather and paid the small fee of $34 for 2! Seemed a little harsh since there's 5 to 8 people on the cruise in the first place. I'd recommend booking the day of or night before, they're not packing em in.
A great trip.

5.00A great way to spend time on the water in Ft Lauderdale. Lots of good information about the Ft Lauderdale waterways The boat ride is smooth, the tour guide and assistant are friendly. We got drinks on the house, a nice plus. The pick up point is at the dead end sign/wall beside an apmt building on Sebastian.

5.00Nice way to spend time on the canals. Saw many mansions and yachts. Our two tour guides, a guy and a girl, did a great job of telling stories and info related to these.
Interesting boat tour

3.00We booked through Viator for 3pm. The boat showed up at 3:30 and said that they don’t have a 3 o’clock departure time. Most people showed up at three, a few showed up right before 330 so apparently there’s a glitch in the system. The tour was supposed to be an hour and 30 minutes long. It was about an hour and 10 minutes long. The two crewmembers were pleasant, but nothing spectacular. Overall, it was interesting, but nothing to hype it up about. I was in between recommending it or not recommending it. It could go either way.
