Good fun time

The staff were polite and very friendly. They took their time to give us safety guidance and recommendations about where along the river we could stop to shop and sightsee around Milwaukee. Good fun.

Staff was friendly and helpful. Very easy to book online. 4 hours was the perfect amount of time for our family. We will use this company again and will refer others. Just wish the taco truck was open when we got off the river.
