Featured review
This was a beautiful boat. With a very cheerful and knowledgeable crew. The Boat is docked right downtown . Very easy to get to. It seemed as though the boat was full to capacity however, there was plenty of room for people to move around, which the crew encouraged. They have a small bar and snack stand on board prices more than reasonable. The musician was fun, funny and talented. There were people of all ages on this Sunset cruise. I would highly recommend it. Great price,great value.

Bundle up as it can be cold out on the bay. The music was great. There is a limited supply of food and drinks available on the ship. There are lots of great photo opportunities of the islands, boats, and the downtown waterfront.
Dress warm
It should actually stay out on the water at Sunset as that is the name of the cruise; we disembarked 15 min prior to sunset. Disappointing.
Experience and entertainment amazing although it was a-bit cold so dress appropriately if taking a late afternoon cruise. The entertainment was Gary from Barrie wonderful musician and played one of his original songs. There was a lot of toe tapping to the music so you know it was good. The complimentary coffee was greatly appreciated. Hats and gloves would be an asset for a fall evening. Enjoy! Guests were allowed to participate in raising the sails.
The cruise was great! Gary was fantastic, captivating, and enthusiastic! However, the crew (not the captain) seemed to have an attitude and were not friendly in the slightest.
Wonderful sunset cruise with a great musician and it was not overcrowded. There are drinks to purchase onboard. Definitely bring layers to wear as it does get colder out in the water (September)....I was thankful to have a hat and gloves too. No issues with seasickness at all. A lovely ship and great time!
the trip around the harbor was enjoyable even if the weather was a little off. Music was good. crew was good.
Amazing views of the harbor and I always love it when I have the opportunity to listen to live music.
I had an amazing time with the cruise. We had a musician on board. The crew members were fabulous. The view was incredible. Highly recommend!
Great tour. We lucked out on the weather and had a beautiful sunset cruise. The live music was a great addition.
The ship is easy to maneuver. The crew is helpful, professional and friendly. My husband and I made some new friends during the cruise. We had the pleasure of listening to "Big Gary" and he was charming and had a perfect lineup of songs for easy listening.
Such a beautiful way to view the harbour, learn a bit and have a ton of fun
We loved it and would definitely recommend it to all visitors to Halifax
Had a lovely time. Musician was great. Staff were great too. Full but lots of room to move around and see everything. The weather was gorgeous and we got great sights and great photos, too.
Thank you all.
The sunset cruise was a lot of fun! Great music and beautiful scenery of the harbourfront. I would recommend to anyone!
We had a beautiful evening to go out on the tall ship Silva. The crew was wonderful and Tommy Green Junior entertained us during the voyage. I would highly recommend.
Beautiful view of the Halifax waterfront and its wonderful attractions and numerous restaurants. Bring a sweater and a camera.
Beautiful scenic evening on the tall ship. Entertainment was ok - i would loved to have more commentary on the sites. Overall - good but not exceptional
It was totally nice relaxing and fun the service was great and book ahead just in case you might miss it
It gets windy so layer up. Fun for the whole family. Everyone was very friendly. The music really added to the ambiance.
A nice evening cruise around Halifax Harbour on a tall ship. Good onboard entertainment. Drinks are decently priced.
It was a great boat ride. It was a very pretty view and great scenery to look at the whole time. There was plenty of live music but I wish the seating back better options. We had plastic chairs that were stacked back to back. That didn’t leave much leg more, or personally space with people pushing against us.
We had a wonderful time on the sunset cruise. The live music was excellent and we were lucky to have a perfect weather evening too. We only wished it could have lasted a bit longer. The price was reasonable and felt like good value.
Lovely experience on this old, tall ship. Crew friendly. Music enjoyable. A different way to see beautiful Halifax.
Fun, scenic cruise! Great crew, musician and captain. Made new friends and enjoyed lovely harbor view.
Lovely evening on the ship. Live music was a nice touch. Staff all really nice and engaged with visitors a lot.
Really enjoyed the music and sail around the Halifax harbour. Very affordable too. Music was good for all age groups
The musician was excellent and added a lot to the experience! On a warm summer evening, this sunset cruise was a memorable experience.
We booked the sunset cruise for 8 of us gals on a bachelorette party. We showed up on time so seats were tricky to get but we ended up hanging out on the top deck which was cooler and likely, more fun. The drinks were quick and tasty and the crew get you involved in hoisting the sails! Was a great time.
Great experience! Live music made it especially enjoyable! The ride gave a great view of the Halifax skyline.
Way over priced, not narrated, very dull......................................................................
It was a beautiful sunset cruise with a great singer.
The views were spectacular
Staff were fun and friendly.
