Great way to see the Friday night fireworks! - It was a great experience. The boat was the same as parasailing, and it was a very relaxing and relaxed ride. The sunset view was spectacular, and we were close enough to the fireworks to get a great view! Mahalo! ~ Jeet

Best tour - We really enjoyed the smaller group firework cruise. Since the boat a smaller, they were able to be closest to the fireworks in the water. The crew was amazing. We will definitely recommend and be back.

Great Friday night harbor cruise - Small boat, so not a huge crowd. Watched the sunset, before the fireworks. Captain Nick was very accommodating to my 80 year old mother, and a lot of fun for all of the guests. Definitely recommend for your family.

Best way to watch fireworks! - So much fun! Saw a whale and fireworks were awesome! We just loved Daniel and Ben! Do this! You will not be sorry! They took out 2 boats the night we went and since we were at the back of the line, there were only 6 people on our boat.

Fireworks cruise - We loved the fireworks from the boat! Captains were very relaxed and there were 9 of us. Only downside no bathroom. Boat was very clean and was a nice cruise for the price

Highlight of our trip - One word- Spectacular.
I wasnt sure what our best option was- if it was better to stay ashore and see the fireworks or to do the cruise and watch them from the ocean. I am glad we chose the latter. It was the highlight of our trip.

Very nice but not what we expected! - The girls that drove the boat and served the water/soft drinks and chips were friendly and helpful. The boat was small (normally used for parasailing). Boat name was The Big O. The seas were rough, nothing they could do about that! This is a BYOB trip which we did, but the seas was just bumpy enough to keep us from drinking more than 1/2 cup of wine. We had a great view of the fireworks which only last about as long at the Katy Perry song Firework. (I know this because that is the song they played on the boat as the fireworks went off)
After the show, the boat sped back to the dock which was awesome (and other than the fireworks, our favorite part of the ride)! Total trip time was about 2.5 hrs.
Note: Before getting on the boat we were waiting with a large crowd that was going on a different tour ... they were giving out drink tokens and loaded first. Was a little concerning watching all but about 8 people leave the dock!

Beautiful Scenery - Seeing the fireworks from the water was very good.
The people on the tour were from various places and we all got along, selecting music and talking about things.
Sitting sideways the entire trip was a bit uncomfortable. The seating is designed to be on the edge of the boat. I'm a keen photographer and only took 8 photos - usually I'd take 100's and need to cull/edit after the event.
We were charged an extra $7USD prior to boarding, as a 'fuel levy' - so have that ready.
Definitely take a jacket / something warm, if you're going in winter. The chill off the water was noticeable. Plus if you sit at the front, there's a good chance you'll get a bit of sea spray.
I enjoyed the experience.
Just be aware that it's pretty basic.
Literally watching the fireworks from a boat.

Great fireworks, think twice if you need a bigger boat. - We really enjoyed seeing the fireworks!
The tour operator wasn’t as professional as they could have been. We arrived at the pier 30 minutes prior per their instructions. Only it wasn’t Pier 3, it was Pier A; and it wasn’t Slip F18, it was F17. Slip F18 also does Firework cruises to make a long story short, we got on the boat at slip F18 and we were even given a drink as we boarded. It was a large boat, friendly crew. As we were waiting to leave the dock my phone rang, it was the actual tour operator we were supposed to be with and she asked if we were still going on the fireworks cruise. When I told her we were already on the boat she informed me we were on the wrong boat, and to get off. There was actually one other couple on that larger boat that had the same experience only the boat was leaving the dock before they could get off. The boat we ended up on was much smaller, we had to hold onto the side rails (per the Captain’s instructions) as we cruised across the water (good thing we didn’t bring drinks with us!). The tour operator was aware there was an issue with the directions to their Pier but didn’t seem too concerned about it.

Waste of money - We got on a tiny boat we didn’t book. The boat driver kept joking around, letting 2 of the other passengers drive the boat for few minutes who had no clue how to drive a boat in an already choppy surface which made the boat rock even more. I did not feel safe nor was this comfortable. I drive boats for my work and would never let an amateur drive with other passengers on board. Just not safe. We didn’t get a safety brief or nothing and this was a very small boat in choppy water. Very unprofessional.
