We celebrated my husband’s birthday, and everything was absolutely beautiful. The atmosphere was amazing, the service was outstanding, and the entire experience felt special from start to finish. It truly made his birthday unforgettable. Ten out of ten — I would definitely recommend this experience and we plan on going again in the near future!

Travelers praise the live music and natural sunset views for creating a lively and romantic atmosphere, especially appreciated during couple-focused sunset dinner cruises. However, food and beverage quality receives mixed reviews, with some noting cold dishes and extra charges that contribute to perceptions of poor value. Comfort issues, including inadequate air conditioning, subpar bathroom conditions, and unclear sound systems, are frequently flagged and detract from the overall experience.

It was a wonderful time, staff so helpful our server Barbara was great, the manager who helped my husband with a wheelchair and a big shout out to Ashley who went over and above and wheeled my husband to our car. We had an amazing time for my daughter’s birthday.
A great date night experience. Just remember that this is a night event n you will not see the outside views
The atmosphere was very nice. The food was excellent and the sights were amazing. I highly recommend this experience
We didn’t get on time since it took us to another direction and we got lost so we don’t get to enjoy it
Great time and staff were awesome. Do yourself a favor and order the shrimp and grits. Family time is best.
Best river cruise! Went on our honeymoon and loved everything about it. Food was amazing and server was phenomenal. 10/10
The experience was excellent. The.virws of the.city from the ship's deck are amazing. The food was great and the service exquisite. The live musician provided the perfect ambiance for an unforgettable night.
The experience was lovely tho we didnt cruise due to high winds. The dinner was delicious & our dinner mates were beautiful people from Chicago.
When I paid for it, I thought it was a little pricey, but I was wanting to do something with and for my wife, but after experiencing the tri-combo which was the boat tour, the horse and buggy tour and the plantation tour we couldn’t help but think that topping it off with the dining boat trip and it was all exceptionally well and well worth the money spent the Guide that was on the horse and buggy was very knowledgeable of the Charleston area and didn’t miss a beat the entire trip that was made through the streets of Charleston. What was truly noticeable was the fact that you could tell she was from Charleston and grew up here and went at the Boone Hall Farm plantation the guide there was just as exceptional
In the two years since we last enjoyed this cruise, many things have changed including the price, which is now double.
As we found out this time, the cruise route is at the Captain’s discretion. Sadly we made multiple loops around the same area instead of the Ft Sumpter, and Ashley River portion. We had brought 5 family members with us, and had told them about everything we would see, so were deeply disappointed when it didn’t happen.
Food was still good, music and atmosphere were great.
We did have a person with mobility issues with us, wish I had thought to request a same level seating due to his restrictions. (although not sure if that would have been possible) There were no accommodations for assistance.
The food was delicious. The live entertainment was outstanding. The service was superb. We would definitely do it again.
This was great way to see harbor at night. It was very relaxing. The food was good our waitress was great
The boat ride was very nice but the music and food were very boring
I would suggest a buffet type of dinner
I almost died of hunger while waiting for the plate that took forever to be served
This experience almost ruined my birthday
It was so nice and elegant. The atmosphere was lovely and relaxing. The scenery was breathtaking. I loved every minute of it. The food was delicious.
Although we had very crappy weather the soup was cold, the bread was hard, the main meal was decent. I had the braised ribs. Tricky to find where the boat is actually docked.
Nice experience food was good staff was courteous if in Charleston I would probably do it again if I'm celebrating or having a romantic evening
This was to be a celebration of our 56 wedding anniversary. My wife is handicapped,. She has severe COPD shoulder and leg issues, but still walk as much as possible. There are actually three parking areas at the site one to the west of the building one directly to the east of the building and nearest the ticket counter and loading area. The third parking area is at a distance behind the employee parking lot or the one on the west side. The employee parking area was large enough for all the patrons and had handicapped access and parking spaces what was roped off by the management. Typically that is the opposite of the way it should be set up. There was a turnstile on the side that we parked, and would have allowed us direct access to the ticket booth,, but it was locked.. I called to the attendant on the inside and she told us to walk around the building and come in on the west side. I heard several complaints regarding the same issue from other patrons that evening. Nobody could understand why the parking was made so inconvenient for everybody except the employees. Seems backwards to me right?
I chose the shrimp and grits for my dinner. As it turned out, the shrimp were so firm and glued together that they had to be cut with a fork to eat like a pancake. This is no joke!
The cruise of the harbor itself was very enjoyable and we met wonderful people. I hope you choose to improve on these things so others do not experience the same unfortunate circumstances.
Love the intimate setting and atmosphere. The view of the sunset was amazing. The servers were professional and the food was phenomenal.
We had a great time and the food was great!! To the staff keep yo the good work! Thanks for a great time.
Very nice atmosphere and the food was delicious. The cruise dinner was smooth. The people were nice and respectful. The waiter was very nice.
The food overall was great but the dessert was very disappointing. I would recommend better options for future cruises.
Great Service, done it multiple times. Experience is always amazing. Excellent service and the vibe is good.
The staff, food and entertainment were awesome! It was our anniversary. I’m glad we chose this cruise!
It is advertised as a luxury sunset dinner cruise, and it’s not. There’s nothing luxurious about it. Everything is very mid. The boat is showing its age and the lighting is harsh. The food and service were ok/average. Not horrible., but nothing said “luxury” to me. The should just advertise it as a sunset dinner cruise.
The boat’s air conditioning did not work. They had three large portable air conditioners set up in the dining rooms, but they could not keep up. It was hot.
The food was excellent. The service was outstanding and the staff was very cordial. The view was fantastic.
Glad I found this last minute for date night. The views were incredible and the 3 course meal did not disappoint us at all! The experience overall interacting with other guests and the workers topped it off. The money is definitely worth it!!!
The Charleston dinner cruise was a great experience. Good vibe, good food, good atmosphere, and great service.
Great food, great service and great environment. Very organized and timely. Great view of the sunset and great view at night time
It was an overall blissful experience to engage in with people you love and care for. It was a surprise well kept.
Not a fan of the she crab soup but the rest of the meal was amazing. The beef ribs were very tender and tasty. The chicken was also good. Suggest offering more than one soup option for those who are not seafood fans. The staff was attentive, and the entertainment was good. The weather was really cloudy, so didn’t get to experience the sunset, but obviously not the fault of the cruise staff.
