It was a windy day, so a little chilly for swimming in late afternoon, and some modifications had to be made to the original itinerary which the crew had warned us about once we arrived! The boat was pristine and very comfortable. The lunch was delicious as well. The hotel pickup and drop off was great to have included. I only wish we had gotten to see more of the island during our cruise!”

“We loved this activity! It was a great way to break up a week of thrill-seeking adventures with something more relaxed. The boarding process was seemless, the boat had plenty of seating (even during a busy holiday week), and the dinner was AMAZING! All four of us agreed it was the best buffet we'd ever enjoyed and there were plenty of of choices for both meateaters and vegetable lovers. Allergens were clearly labled for those with dietery restrictions. Make sure you save room for the vanilla ice cream! The grounds are beautiful and you can walk around and explore before the Farm Show. There were several families with younger kids…”

“I booked this trip at the very last minute, and the team stepped forward in the most awesome ways. First, the woman at the office was very helpful, she quickly arranged transportation after we landed at the airport (they picked us up in 9 minutes!) My friend is 83 years old and walks a little slower than others, but they made a point to accomodate him at every juncture. This 3-person team worked in tandem throughout the trip. They helped another guest who was sick the entire trip, while making sure all other guests were having a great experience. We went to three different locations, where we could jump in…”
