    Boat left before departure time even though we called and said we were here. Total waste of money and time.

    Amazing

    Kate_O, Aug 2026
    Everything was amazing. Breathtaking views, friendly crew, beautiful boat. There is a great history behind that boat. I think this is the best Chicago boat tour

    Fun fun fun! Would recommend to all.

    Denise_B, Jul 2026
    Different and exciting! Professional and polite, good price and value! Unique experience for families or businesses or couples.

    Ok but not the best for fireworks.

    Beth_W, Jul 2026
    The boat was late returning from the previous cruise. Our trip was to start at 8:30 and the boat returned at 8:46 and then had to unload current passengers. The boat was covered in the back so it limited our views. I was also killing spiders and had a lot of spider webs.

    Get to the boat early. ...

    Get to the boat early. It was a bit too crowded and we were stuck inside and couldn’t see well. Disappointed

    The crew was so kind!...

    Laura_M, Jul 2026
    The crew was so kind! Amazing views! The fireworks lit up the water so beautifully. There was a performance on board that was a little too loud for me, but I luckily had some ear plugs to tune it out a bit. I just have sensitivity to loud noises. I asked the captain and they said that a show isn't always present on board. 10/10 would recommend.

    Fireworks and Chicago

    We had the best time on the fire boat excursion! The staff was so friendly the music was great! The best part was the Chicago skyline and the fireworks! Such a great time. We highly recommend doing this on your next trip to Chicago!

    It was. A great ride I watched the fireworks from Navy Pier closer than ever!!!

    Pick a good, warm time to go!!! It was cold, windy & breezy when I went. But it was still visually enjoyable. Give it a try!!!

    was a wonderful tour to see the fireworks! only thing that could be a bit better is the directions as to where to catch the boat. all was solved for our family with the help of a great bike guy who got us to the location we needed to be at. definatley recomend this to anyone!!! well worth the money spent! grand kids loved it and us adults too!!!
