The bachelorette turned out to be ah-may-zing in large part to Chris and Tatiana who made our cruise easy and fun. While Chris navigated so professionally while Tatiana handled the drinks and snacks and music - before our cup was even empty, Tatiana had another glass of bubbly for us. We really didn't have to worry about anything apart from enjoying ourselves and pretending to be JLo on a yacht for the day. Our bride to be was over the moon - the boat added an extra level of special to the celebration. We're already planning our next day on the water - wedding or not!

The two person crew did a great job both driving the boat and talking about the sights we were seeing. I enjoyed learning a bit more about the city. One heads up...the stairs down into the main seating area are extremely steep. It's only a few, and the railings are sturdy, but for someone with balance or mobility challenges this could be hard. It might be worth calling ahead to see if space on the small back upper level is prioritized for those who can't navigate the stairs.

Saw a deal on Groupon from Nautical Adventures that advertised a dinner buffet cruise around the…read moreToronto Harbourfront and decided to try it out. I highly recommend people go even without the Groupon as it was a great experience. Our cruise was on an old time schooner called the "Empire Sandy", a lovely ship that dates back to the second world war. We set sail at around 7:30 pm and they started us off with some appetizers that consisted of corn chips, salsa, fried beans and celery/carrots with dip. There's room on the ship up top to hang out and enjoy the view as well as a formal dining area below deck. The cruise was about an hour in at around 8:30 pm before dinner was served (it's a very late dinner so make sure to eat a bit beforehand!). Dinner consisted of potato salad, rice, coleslaw, chicken and ribs. No complaints on the food as it was cooked extremely well by the crew. A dessert table was also included but was not served until the tail end of the cruise, they provided us with fresh fruit, carrot cake, brownies and cheese cake. The cruise itself was amazing. It offered a very unique view of the city where you could see the city light up at night. The atmosphere was very family friendly with couples and families young and old enjoying the ride. The crew was very helpful and really added to the experience too, everything went smoothly and they even fired off a cannon for us. There is also an on board DJ and dance floor if you choose to enjoy that. A few recommendations if you do want to give it a try, make sure you wear casual wear as it could get uncomfortable standing around for roughly 4 hours. There are also certain dates available for the dinner cruise from the website so you have to make sure you book before hand (at least a week before the cruise).

Once everyone got off the boat I asked for a receipt and he stated: "he forgot his book at him but will give me an invoice on Monday". As Monday rolled around he emailed me following details "Amount: ***" thanks for having your event on his boat. I told him this is not a receipt as it has no information its simply an email with my amount and he replied saying this is the best HE COULD DO AND STOPPED PICKING UP MY PHONE!!!! he stated he cannot provide HST # for his company (even though I paid HST) BECAUSE HE DOES NOT DO IT FOR SMALL PEOPLE AND tried to change the topic by asking "did you have fun" that's all that matters money shouldn't matter. LASTLY, he had said I could have my own coke bottles on the boat and when we were in the boat I noticed they were missing, this was because the staff had taken my bottles and put them behind the bar and when I told them I already spoke to the captain, captain wife wanted to clarify and when she asked him infront of me he denied that HE HAD SAID THAT TO ME! VERY VERY VERY STRESSFUL !!!!! DO NOT RECOMMEND, I rather paid extra for more professional service !!!!

All guests were anxious and hungry. Due to the delay in dinner we never got an opportunity to really enjoy any dancing as the while night we were waiting on food. We were not given any updates on that situation and even went back to the dock to the confusion of all guests to pick up the late dinner. A little courteous update would have been appreciated. I was pressed to give a tip upfront!! Rude! Tips are to be earned, and they were very undeserving of a generous tip. The boat was dirty from top to bottom and the food was mediocre. Overall I would give it a 2/10 and will not be recommending this company to anyone.

Five Stars! Massive Yacht, Seamless Party, and Top-Tier Service…read moreWe chose this company to host a major event, and they delivered! The yacht itself is a stunner--huge, spotless, and feels brand new. They also provide excellent catering services. My party for a large group went incredibly smoothly. The on-board staff are helpful and friendly, and I especially appreciated that the owner is always present to personally oversee the events. While there was a slight hiccup with initial communication, their customer service quickly rectified it. The biggest surprise was the value; what seemed expensive initially proved to be completely justified by the high-quality vessel and seamless experience. Plus, when I realized I left something behind, the office team was wonderfully nice and secured my item immediately. If you need a premium event venue that doubles as a huge yacht, look no further!

Plenty of quality food, beer and other alcohol choices were on offer for sampling and there was a variety of good music and prize giveaways as well. This Event took place a few weeks later in the summer than the Cruise I attended 3 years ago, therefore it became dark earlier and with the humidity/clouds among the encroaching sunset, an almost ethereal image was cast around the boat. I found that both of the Yelp Boat Cruise Events I've attended were just the right length at about 2 1/2 to 3 hours - not too long and not to short. Both Events also appeared to be very well organized and the boat large enough and well enough maintained to help ensure smooth 'sailing'. I hope to be able to attend the same Event next year.

When talking to someone else they had bottle service and wasn't told a $50.00 tip had been added and had also tipped on top. The bartender hadn't even crack open my beer and expected 45% tip.
