Try to avoid

Colin_O, Jun 2025

Avoid this. I was very disappointed by the experience where I spent a majority of the time on the deck. Wine was bad. Food was average. Performance was meh. Sunset cruise is a bit false advertising. You don't set sail until it is dark. Just disappointing.

The night sky was beautiful but the set up and layout of the dinner tables was difficult. The food was okay. The performances were okay. Our wait staff was good and provided good service.
