Top Miami Night Cruises

The upper deck definitely has better views so get in line early. We were below and could only see the sites the guide was talking about on our side. For the money, this is a great excursion. Cash bar which we didn’t use so not sure the prices. I read other reviews that it’s cheaper to buy tickets in person not online and that seemed true. We saw the paper ticket of the couple in front of us and they paid $60. We paid $70 but our paper ticket said we paid $220. As far as being a sunset cruise, we didn’t pull out of port until the sun had set which was a bit disappointing. We definitely enjoyed the gorgeous Miami skyline all lit up. Overall we’d go again.

We arrived early and ate at the Land Shark right next door. Our trip was at 2:30 but we walked to the dock at 2pm and were the 3rd party in line. We were greated by a gentleman who asked the name on our reservation and asked to see our tickets. He came back over with a receipt for us to give the Captain as we boarded the ship. We stood in line until around 2:20pm when we started boarding. They did have each of us stop and pose as a family for a picture they print and sell you on the boat. It was $15 and turned out cute so we purchased it. We sat up top under the open cover where the sun was not bad and we could see everything. The boat left the dock around 2:45pm. The guide was funny and told jokes as she spoke about the mansions. My kids were shocked to see Diddy’s mansion 🫣. The cargo loading was cool to watch at well. Overall the vibe on the boat was great. They kept it fun and interactive. We could have rode around all day with them. We got back to the dock around 3:45pm.
