    Vince, the attendant checking us started our trip wonderfully. He is friendly, helpful, and efficient. Then, Jackson, gave us a wonderfully detailed tour on board. Thank you Argosy for a very nice tour.

    The ride was awesome. Kiki was very knowledgeable and did an outstanding job of informing us about the sites and tour. My favorite part was probably the locks and watching how far down we dropped (about 16ft ) which was pretty impressive. Would highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Seattle.

    We really enjoyed this cruise. Jackson, the tour guide, was very knowledgeable and pointed out a lot of interesting features along the way. We would definitely recommend this cruise as a way to see a different side of Seattle!

    It was a day later. Because it wasn't explained to me where I had to go. Had to rebook my anniversary plans.

    I gave them 5 Stars because the bout was great beautiful views knowledgeable tour guide reasonably priced on board for drinks very friendly and good crew over all it was a great experience. However once we got off the boat the experience was night and day we paid extra for the return bus do not waste your money find a different way to your car they took forever to come no one new which bus we were suppose to get on or when it was coming. once we got one the bus the tour is a pre-recording that play on a loop and speaking of loops we went around and around downtown for over an hour at one point being within a block of our car and then turning away from it I was truly beginning to thinkI would not get back to my car long story short take the bout ride but don't waste your money on the bus

    Trip through the locks was great. Guide was knowledgeable. We had a gorgeous weather to show off Seattle! Had out of town company with us that had never seen that part Seattle. The only down side to the trip was the bus trip back to Lake Union to get to our car. It took almost an hour to do a 10 minute drive because they put us on a Hop On/Hop Off bus. That information should have been put in the description. We had made dinner reservations for 30 minutes after the end of the trip and obviously we were late.

    Excellent boat ride. Good snacks. Casey our narrator was knowledgeable. Will tell my friends who visit Seattle it's a must see adventure. Added bonus was a double decker bus ride back to the drop off location.
