Stranahan House is the home of Fort Lauderdale pioneers Frank and Ivy Stranahan. Built in 1901 as a trading post and converted into a residence for the Stranahans in 1906, the house is the oldest surviving structure in Broward County.
Colee Hammock Park is a peaceful little spot on the water near Las Olas Boulevard. It is beautiful to look past the tall, old trees and shady lawn to the blue of the water beyond and the boats gliding by. Mansions line the shore of the waterway, making for a nice view. Couples sit on the benches enjoying the serenity.
The recently renovated historic hotel was built in the 1930s. It is located on trendy Las Olas Boulevard in downtown Fort Lauderdale, adjacent to shops and restaurants and less than 3 miles from the beach.
Founded in 1958, NSU Art Museum is a premier destination for exhibitions and programs encompassing all facets of civilization's visual history.

Great cruise to enjoy with family. Great show to experience with family and friends. Great staff A1 on the staff i wouldn't change a thing about this experience.
Definitely not worth the money. They advertise as all you can eat but give you 45mins to find seating and actually eat. The ribs were not soft at all. The chicken tenders were mid. The only good thing they had was the cornbread. You have to pay for everything else.
Wasted time on arriving as requited, food was terrible and regular drinks (soda, tea, etc) and desserts were pay as you go at exorbitant prices.
Viator is horrible the service was not good . I was unable to add my child to my reservation . However my experience in the jungle queen was amazing
It was the perfect amount of time to keep things moving from one thing to another. I have a teen with me and was worried it might feel too long for 4 hours and it was just perfect
The boat ride was great, the curator told us all about the history of the homes we saw. The island was beautiful. There were different types of parrots to view . The gator inclosure was closed due to heavy rains, the gators had to be moved to another location. The food was 2 stars at best. The coleslaw and cornbread were the best. The beans were alright but too much pepper. The ribs were pretty good if you eat pork. Many of my family members do not eat pork so they were left eating hard dry chicken tenders. When they said BBQ chicken and ribs we just assumed it would be real chicken like wings, drumsticks, thighs, or breast! The show was definitely the main attraction! And it was awesome. We learned to tell a song through dance. My grandkids really enjoyed that part. There was plenty of seating and exploring the island took just a few minutes. And whatever you do please purchase your parking ticket on the boat! We paid $50 instead of $20!
Above our expectations. Clean bathrooms Spacious, lots of information from our tour guide , he is more than wonderful. I’m glad we did this . Family of 5 our youngest is 3 yrs old and she enjoyed herself , the food was 10/10.
Excellent . Very entertaining. Satisfactory. The all you can eat mouth watering dinner was like from out of this world feast.
It was an amazing boat tour to an lil island where u eat all u can eat ribs and chicken tenders then they have slushie and liquor and ice cream and desserts bars to purchase and look at pretty birds the hula and fire dancing show was also pretty cool overall we really did enjoy
We been to Jungle Queen dinner and show before few times and loved it every time. We appreciated that there was food option for both meat lovers and for those of us that don’t eat meat. The ride and show was always equally awesome. This time we went with family that does not eat meat and to our surprise there was no meatless option. They ended up eating fries, coleslaw and beans but I do not consider that a meal only bunch of side dishes. So although they still had great time because of everything else, I felt somewhat disappointed that this adventure did not offer pescatarian option.
