We had such a great time on the tiki boat cruise! It was fun, relaxing, and the perfect way to spend a few hours on the water. Valerie was our bartender and she was fantastic. She was friendly, fun, attentive, and really added to the whole experience. The atmosphere was laid back, everyone was having a good time, and the cruise was enjoyable from start to finish. We laughed, relaxed, enjoyed the views, and had an absolute blast. I would definitely do this again and highly recommend it, especially if you’re lucky enough to have Valerie as your bartender!

Great experience. Staff was super friendly and helpful with explaining buildings and sightings to us. Drinks were amazing and ride was smooth.
Our Bartender, Giovanni was personable, attentive and engaging. I'll be back for sure...
Captain Blue, Sofia, and the entire crew were excellent for our party and would love to have them again in the future.
Best time ever! Loved our experience
My guy Daniel really made the experience a treat. There was an issue with the tickets and he helped make sure everything was taken care of.
Daniel is a wonderful wonderful bartender. He made the experience amazing work. I completely recommend this cruise!
Fun, relaxed trip along the river with great city views. Able to chat with friends and enjoy cocktails. The dock area was fun with bags, connect four and a land bar.
Our group had a blast, and even amidst some rough water the crew was fantastic. Sophia ran the bar and kept the vibes up. Thanks to the whole crew for a fantastic evening.
Sophia the bartender was fantastic. She’s the best and she was so sweet
It was such a nice and fun experience. Much longer than I even expected. Johvanny gave me and my boyfriend the best service and the best vibes! He was so nice and down to earth! Def would do it again 100% and recommend it to others!
We did the 75 minute River Cruise and we had an amazing time. The views were great and it felt like the perfect amount of time to see Chicago. Johvanny was an amazing bartender and overall member of their staff. He made sure my partner and I were taken care of on the tour, and made our experience even better. I’d highly recommend this tour!
It was a beautiful day to be on the boat. It would’ve been nice to go out to Lake Michigan for even a few minutes.
Amazing experience! Crew is so fun and helpful. Definitely recommend!! Best summer activity!
Alondra at the bar was great! We loved our drinks and the friendliness
The bartender Amanda was an absolute rock star! Thanks for being so kind and helpful!
Alondra made us feel so welcome and took great care of us! Great views!
Amanda was an amazing bar tender 10/10
Alondra was a huge help and had amazing customer service. Super friendly, will definitely be back because of her.
Not really what I expected. “island party boat” but nothing about it was really “party.” I didn’t expect a super turnt experience but the music was terrible and when I asked for it to be changed they said they couldn’t. You’re really just paying to be on the boat and the rest of the experience you create for yourself. The skyline is beautiful but I wouldn’t book this again. The people weren’t very friendly either.
I went out with friends this past weekend on island time. We all had such a blast. I brought DJ equipment and all the boat staff were so accommodating and friendly. I highly recommend booking with this company and Captain Rob is the GOAT!!!
We had a group for a bachelorette, missed our original time and the company was so sweet and let us on another boat 30 minutes later! Made sure we had everything we need! And our bartender Amanda was the best! We will be back! 11/10!
Tour was great, we had a great time, however finding location was tricky. Pick up location was not accurate and it almost caused us to be late for this nonrefundable trip. Other boats owners were able to direct us to right location and once there we had a blast. FYI this tour is at the river and not where pick up location address is in the marina.
Amanda W. ♥ was absolutely amazing! We came in with a large group party, which meant lots of people ordering all kinds of drinks and making requests throughout the night. Despite the busy atmosphere, Amanda handled everything like a true professional. She was attentive, organized, friendly, and worked incredibly well under pressure. No matter how many orders were coming her way, she kept a positive attitude and made sure everyone was taken care of. Her energy and customer service really stood out and made our experience even more enjoyable. My girls and I kept going back to tip her because we were so impressed with how hard she was working and how smoothly she managed everything. Amanda is truly a rockstar, and she deserves all the recognition for providing such exceptional service! Thank you, Amanda, for making our celebration so much fun and stress-free! ♥✨🍹🥂
The price was well worth the experience. The time on the boat was perfect. We got a chance to see so much of Chicago and get a real vibe of the city. Also, our bartender Amanda was such a great time! I had a blast!
Great ride in a great city! Had the pleasure of having Captain Rob take us on our cruise. Very fun and professional. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great way to spend some time on the water!
When we boarded the boat we were greeted by a smiling Capt. Rob. He assured us we were going to have a great time and he was right. We will definitely be sailing with him again!
