Great views of the bridge and Alcatraz. Wear a sweatshirt or jacket it does get chilly. Food and bathroom available.
The boat was very dirty and the staff not very friendly at all. The announcments are recorded in various languages but the volume could have been a little higher.
Last minute booking, reliable! Friendly wallet, checked! Easy to deal with, yassss!!! Would recommend this place to friends and family!!!
The staff is very accommodating and friendly. Great trip overall! Although they were talking about the history, I couldn’t hear very well. It would’ve been great to have it a bit louder. Other than that it was amazing!
Good way to see the bay. On a clear day you get a Great view. It can get crowded so be prepared for that.
Staff is super friendly. The cruise was very nice under golden gate Bridge and Alcatraz. Well worth it enjoy the tip of the boat on the second floor.
Sit on the top, aswell as the audio played there was a worker telling us extra facts and he was very entertaining aswell.

After 10 years live in Bay Area we tried for first time it was awesome kids were very happy thank you guys for every thing
You're awesome! Thanks for coming out and joining us!
I enjoyed the experience and the price was good. I recommend wearing something warm cause it’s cold, they offer drinks and snacks during your ride and also shares history about the Bay Area. It was really pretty, I recommend this to anyone looking for something to do.
Hi Hayley, thank you for the great review. And thanks for sharing that sound advice regarding the warm cloths. It can get chilly out there.
