    What a great experience! Friendly crew who answered questions but didn't narrate -- which we appreciated after a long day of sightseeing and listening to tour guides! We brought our own wine, bread, cheese and deli meats, from Pike Place Market, which was plenty for dinner. Regular seating is limited, so be prepared to sit on the deck -- there's not much room to walk around. We were fine but it's not suitable for those with mobility issues. We were lucky to have calm clear weather and enjoyed a spectacular sunset. Two hours is just long enough!

    This was awesome! Me and my 3 daughters did the sunset sail on our last night in Seattle. It wasn’t exactly what we expected but we also had no idea what to expect because none of us had ever been on a sailboat. This was an awesome experience for our first time! Next time, we will remember to dress in more layers and bring blankets. The seating isn’t the most comfortable but the views were worth it! Our captain was so friendly and was happy to answer all of our curious questions. Thank you!!

    From the beginning to the end, the experience was incredible. You literally enjoy every minute of it. My first time but going at 6pm was probably the best time!

    Tourist here! It was an amazing mix of locals and tourists. As someone who likes to meet new people while on vacation, I highly recommend this tour. If you don't like to chat, that's cool too.

    Sailing Seattle…The perfect evening cruise!

    Kevin_S, Jul 2026
    Zoe and Capn Craig were exceptional. They were very friendly, fun and informative. They really made the evening a wonderful trip. It was so nice when Zoe handed out jackets and blankets. The wind was quite chilly on the water. Such great weather, and we were blessed with a beautiful sunset. Thanks to you both!

    Easy and beautiful

    This was a great experience for our family (parents and a teenager). Beautiful sunset and views of the city. Easy, relaxed and relaxing. I would not bring little kids or elderly on this cruise but it’s perfect for teenagers through mid-lifers

    Nice to be able to bring your own feed beverages. Many people sit at the edge of the boat that has railing.

    Cool Evening Sail

    Cathy_L, Jun 2026
    Great evening sail. The weather was perfect. It does get a little cool out in the Sound, so bring layers.

    The best adventure

    Nora_M, Jun 2026
    It’s an immersive experience in Seattle that will make you wanna become a sailor!!! Double the experience if you do;)

    What a great experience!...

    Megan_M, Jun 2026
    What a great experience! The crew was so accommodating! Our kiddo was given the opportunity to steer the sailboat! This was our last planned excursion before returning home the following day and it couldn’t have been a better time! We were all so happy we did it!

    It was a great way to spend a few hours of my bday

    Alicia_W, May 2026
    What an amazing way to see Seattle. The crew was attentive and made sure everyone was included and taken care of. It felt more like family and friends sailing together. A great way to meet people. View was incredible and very peaceful.

    Relaxed night on the water

    Susan_E, May 2026
    Very low key, lovely night on the water. Wear layers, though there are blankets on boardz remember to tip the fantastic crew!

    Fun excursion!

    Kim_J, Sep 2025
    Nice way to see the city from the bay! While the seating is a bit unorthodox, the wind and the quiet of sailing were quite enjoyable. Bringing your own snacks and beverages? Heck yeah! Matt & Zoey were.great!

    Karen_P, Sep 2025
    This was my third sunset sail tour in Seattle and by far my favorite! We saw so many seals and it was so relaxing and fun.

    Beautiful sunset sailing

    Regina_S, Sep 2025
    This was our first experience, sailing and it was absolutely beautiful and stunning and so much more. The captain Phil made it a great experience and his shipmate. Once you check in, they give you a number so there’s no need to rush to get on the boat because your checked in by the way that you arrived so if you get there early, you get basically wherever you wanna be seated on the sailboat we were probably 30th to get on and had a great seat. It seems like every seat on the sailboat is wonderful and they let you walk around and Take photos and it was an absolutely amazing experience. You can bring your own food and drinks when we went it was just sweatshirt weather I would absolutely do this again. ⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️

    Beautiful night for a sail around Puget Sound!!
