Took the classic lake tour for a party if 6. Had a blast. Vic and his crew were perfect and knowledgeable in the details of all of the sites along the way. Will go again!

Took the 90 minute classic tour. The tour guide Bella gave some interesting information but also let us just enjoy the ride in peace. The captain let the kids steer the boat for a bit! On the way back we stood at the front of the boat and got splashed by the waves! Just an all around good family time!!!

when Emita II first makes its appearance in the harbor, it’s the highlight of my spring! Summer fun is just around the corner. We had a great cruise tonight as usual. Emita II is a “do not miss” experience.
