Wonderful end to the day - This cruise was great! If a laid back experience is what you’re looking for, this is it. My parents visited from out of town and they enjoy being on the water. I took a chance on this experience and I’m so glad I did. We learned a lot about the area and it was just a fun time seeing the South Sound from the water. Highly recommended!

Wonderful experience! - We had a wonderful time on the boat cruise! Captain Tom was a great host and made the trip very engaging. He shared interesting and fun information all through the trip and took us on a comprehensive trip around the area. It was so beautiful and the views from the water were amazing! We plan to do this again with friends and family when they come to visit us next summer.

Sunset cruise is not to be missed - The scenic cruise was excellent. The guide is native to the area and his love of the area is apparent. Many interesting facts are shared about the history of the sound, the animals encountered and the best photo opportunities.

3 Hour Sunset Cruise from Gig Harbor - Enjoyed the top deck for sure, so much knowledge about the history of surrounding area & Narrows bridge. Learned so much. Perfect tour for sure & very reasonable! Suggest you bring water & take a blanket as you return from under narrows Bridge Into Gig Harbor. Friendly staff. Would do again in a heart beat.

Sunshine - Bring a light jacket or coat for the evening tour. Sunglasses are needed sometimes and binoculars would be a bonus.

Great experience! - The Captain was very knowledgable about the boat, as well as the recent and past history of the harbor and the area. Having a bathroom on the boat and being able to move out of the wind and into a warmer area was nice. I’d highly recommend this tour.

A great way to spend an afternoon - Beautiful day, beautiful scenery. Capt.Tom is so knowledgeable of the area and boatsmanship is happy to share what he knows. No need to worry about seasickness, as the ride is smooth. You can sit comfortably in open air or a covered area and you won’t miss the sunset anywhere you sit.
