Saw exactly what I anticipated seeing. The staff were outstanding. The ticket office staff we kind, courteous and helpful. Captain Kat and I hope I’m correct when I say Captain Jack (maybe John). Knowledgeable, courteous and soooo kind. I was travelling with a special needs adult child, he went abouve and beyond making sure needs were accommodated. Would 100% take this cruise again

A comfortable way to see Toronto"s harbour in the heat of the day. Staff were friendly. My mother can't walk well, so the choice of a boat ride was good although there was one step on to the boat which bobbed a bit. They should pass out a cold bottle of water.

I haven’t been there before but Was easy to find the location. We didn’t have to wait for long time to board the boat. There staff were friendly and helped ppl with little kids to board safely. We liked the highlight the guide was sharing and the music break to take pics was great idea. Very much Enjoyed the experience
