They bent over backwards to make sure we were able to get out on the water. Paul the captain was great and his first mate Will was awesome. We didn't have to wait very long to catch some stripers, then we caught so many we had to throw some back. Later in the day went fishing some sea bass and while we didn't catch any keepers we did get some porgey and still had a great time. I've been on several fishing charters and this one was by far the best. We had an awesome experience and will definitely be booking with Eden Charters again.

The bar was limited not sure if the promoter had an opinion.

But have no fear, the operation is run flawlessly by professionals that love what they do & it shows. We have been enjoying the Connecticut river journeys on the Riverquest for several years now & learn something new every trip. Any cruise is a fun outing but we give high marks to the Old Saybrook lighthouse cruise & the Swallow migration cruises offered late summer, early fall. Several cruises do have tables set up where you can bring food & libations on board for a DIY onboard picnic while you cast a keen eye for vultures, osprey, eagles, cormorants & other water fowl, nesting hunting & feeding on the river. The scenery is wonderful. The ship is comfortable. 5 well earned stars.

We were only 18 people in the riverboat so each group had our own table where we brought our own food. They provided binoculars for us to see things. We saw bald eagles, swallows, egrets, swan, etc. The crew was really knowledgeable. He taught us why the mute swan is an invasive species and how they damage the ecosystem. The ride was quite smooth and the breeze at the end of the day was really soothing. We didn't see the sunset unfortunately. The neighborhood in the area is very quaint and cute. People are extremely nice when compared to NYC. They say hi all the time. There is parking nearby but you had to pay attention to the signs. I didn't so I had to look further which I didn't revert because we got to explore the neighborhood.

Be prepared for a workout, it's one set right after another. By the end of pulling in average 20-30 pound Stripers I had nothing left in my arms. None of our group of four had ever gone deep sea fishing, but Steve drilled us like a fishing boot camp. Snap! Snap! Quarter turn! Bring a decent size cooler with ice for your filets. All your fish is skinned and bagged in freezer bags. Bring sunglasses, sunblock, water, beer, snacks, Dramamine, hats, and dress lightly because your going to get hot jigging and reeling. Don't forget to tip the 1st mate. Captain does not get a tip, He gets cash or a check. This is not a scenic ocean cruise, or time to play on your phone, it's about catching big ass fish.

As you arrive after parking, you are able to pick up your tickets through the ticket booth. It had indicated me through the emails that the tickets would have been delivered in the mail and I would have to have them prepared, but they never arrived or delivered. You are able to pick them up at the booth. As you embark on the North Pole Express experience, your actor on your carriage/wagon will begin to story-tell, and they also sing a few Christmas songs throughout the experience. They pass a cup of hot chocolate and a cookie to each passenger. I'd personally say that this experience was more directed towards kids. This was my first experience with something like this, but if I were to ever return, it would mainly be to bring a child, since it's geared towards children. I've heard there are other North Pole Express train experiences in other cities that are more adult oriented. Although this was the case, it was still an enjoyable experience. Both Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus appeared outside and soon made their way to the carriages. The actress was incredibly interactive and kind with everyone on board.
