ROMANTIC AND RELAXING

“The guide wasn’t the usual guide for this tour but she was very friendly and interactive with everyone on the cruise! She was very informative of everything from the houses, parks, landmarks, boats at the marina, people, restaurants. The cruise itself was very nice. The captain even stopped the boat when we spotted dolphins so we could watch them in the water. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone.”

This Cruise is a Must

Amazing sunset cruise!  Captain Robert and First Mate Vincent were the absolute best. Lots of laughs, great information and the company of all aboard was incredible. I didn’t want the cruise to stop!  This cruise is a must!!

Very Relaxing Cruise

“I originally thought this would be a touristy type cruise but I was way wrong. It was a peaceful boat ride through the harbor hitting some landmarks and watching the sunset over Charleston. There was some background on the landmarks and the guides would answer questions but for the most part, they let you sit and enjoy the ride and scenery. I highly recommend it!”
