    The staff and live DJ were great! The ride was so nice that you didn’t feel like you were moving. I highly recommend the night cruise.

    It is lively. Good music and good sights. There is a good view of the most popular monuments.. Drinks are good especially the rum punch.

    Good Vibes

    Lisa_k, Aug 2026
    This was a good party boat. Diverse music and unlimited drinks,but bottom shelf liquor (just a heads up for the people that do not like this type of thing). Over all I had a good time with friends and the vibe was nice.

    It was horrible. This was not a yacht, it’s a raggedy boat, with a dingy bar. The crowed was wild and obnoxious, the “snacks” were for children I.e. Lays potato chips, Doritos etc. it was terrible. My friends and I made the best of it, but I would never do it again or suggest anyone else do it.

    Leo season

    Black_L, Aug 2026
    It was fun, and I appreciated the fact that the ride was slow and easy to enjoy! The crew guy was friendly and on point with safety precautions. He did not allow any silly stuff standing up on the bench on the top tier. 2 separate females tried to dance and take pics. He stopped it immediately Kudos to him! I met people and mingling was interesting and easy as well! Awesome experience for my Leo season

    Not what was advertise

    Dr_C, Aug 2026
    I definitely thought this experience was going to be much better organized and planned. I was expecting actual snacks or light refreshments, not simply a basket of chips. It also would have been nice to have food available for purchase, even if the options were limited to small hors d’oeuvres or appetizers. On the positive side, my girlfriend and I were able to relax, enjoy each other’s company, and have some really good conversation. The weather was somewhat decent, although it was hot and we did get some rain. The drinks were just so-so; based on our experience, I would recommend sticking with beer rather than ordering cocktails. Overall, the concept has a lot of potential, but better planning, food options, and improved refreshments would make the experience much more enjoyable and worth the cost.

    Had an amazing time on this yacht party! The atmosphere was incredible, the music kept the energy up all night, and the open bar was a huge plus. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure everyone had a great experience from start to finish. The views from the yacht were absolutely stunning, especially during sunset. Everything was well organized, and the vibe was fun, relaxed, and perfect for celebrating with family. If you're looking for a memorable night on the water with great drinks and even better company, this is the experience to book. Highly recommended! 🛥️🥂🌅⭐

    David_D, Aug 2026
    Everybody seems great except there wasn't any lite snacks as it was supposed to be on the list that was free and I don't drink so I had Mocktails but all of my drinks tasted terrible like water and it was my birthday it seemed like something was wrong with the Sprite and had a bad taste to it

    Boomerang Yacht Party FUNNN

    Michelle_A, Aug 2026
    This was a lot of fun. Our tour was the Boomerang Yacht Party in DC. It wasn’t a full cruise so there were less than 20 of us on board, which, for a warm August day wound up being very tranquil and intimate. The crew were super nice and helpful. The drinks were ok and so was the dj. The vibe was very relaxed and we had full run of the boat, always a place to sit and enjoy the upper or lower decks. The boat was timely with departure and arrival so don’t be late if you’re scheduled. A member of our group got stuck in storm weather and traffic and missed it. It wasn’t super hard to find parking, there are street spaces and garages in Georgetown but allow time to park and walk down to the dock. Since they don’t serve food, there are a couple restaurants right off of the boat that take reservations so you can eat right before or after. I liked this a lot.

    Sailing....take me away

    The overall experience was nice. The bartender was attentive and friendly. Weather was perfect. I just had trouble finding the location.

    It's a Vibe!

    Veronica_H, Jul 2026
    So much fun! The drinks, the music, the vibe, the view, all worth the money! I will be doing this again!

    Fun experience!

    Laura_V, Jul 2026
    Good experience but drinks were not amazing and you have limited options. Music was pretty good and sights were nice.

    Disappointed and tried to contact the company. with no answer.

    Teresa_T, Jul 2026
    Didn’t get to go because of the air quality and the extremely temperature. Tried to contact the guide with no answer.

    Lauren_D, Jul 2026
    Really fun time with a group of friends. The monuments at night were fantastic. The one issue is that they do not restock the boat with drinks between trips so they ran out of any canned options (beer , seltzer) at the beginning (our group was first on and they ran out before our own group could all get drinks) which was a disappointment if you don’t want to drink hard liquor!

    Dc fun boat ride excellent experience

    Mechelle_P, Jul 2026

    Lesly_H, Jul 2026
    Where are the fans? The a/c? Something’s for a breeze that was so hot! Also the snack option in my opinion was a bad option cuz it’s hot outside we are probably already dehydrated and you wanna serve salty chips? Music was ok! I think the dj was good at reading the room.

    Consider this review before booking.

    Robert_B, Jul 2026
    If its going to be a hot day, there is no AC on fhe boat. If there is no breeze and its hot prepare to suffer. Staff is inattentive. Some of them even vaped.

    An experience to have

    Beautiful Time!

    Leslie_S, Jul 2026
    Beautiful night! Lots of fun Patriots in for the 4th! Some happy DC locals too celebrating Birthdays 🎂 The views were amazing! The Bar Tender was great! The DJ was grumpy with an not OK play list for the crowd. The rest of staff really did not care to engage. Probably tooooo hot! We all still had fun!

    Chill party cruise

    Cruising down the Potomac

    Valerie_V, Jul 2026
    Despite the rain it was a nice cruise. They keep the drinks flowing. My only critique was the music was too loud. They could have had a better variety.

    The service was terrible....

    Chris_T, Jun 2026
    The service was terrible. Most of the workers were rude! I didn't have a good experience. My finance also share the same sentiments.

    Party boat... LOVE.

    Valentino_O, Jun 2026
    SO MUCH FUN!! Drinks 🍹🥂... great music🎵🎶... and amazing people! 😊 workers and riders alike!🩵 would definitely recommend.

    Fun but....

    Ginette_L, Jun 2026
    The yacht trip was fun, however only gave 4 stars because the add said something about snacks. Well, the snacks were bagged potato chips. Not much food if you are drinking. Wish we had dinner prior to boarding.

    Sunset cruise on the Potomac

    Molly_E, Jun 2026
    Staff was friendly, professional and very engaging. We had a fantastic time and saw a beautiful sunset while listening to great music.

    Fun Time just make sure it is a beautiful day and the open bar will do the rest of the work

    Kristian_P, May 2026
    It is amazing on a Beautiful day and the staff everyone from Marr to Annie was excellent I would def recommend this to anyone trying to enjoy a relaxed fun time in DC.

    cece_j, May 2026
    When I got there there was nobody there the event was canceled I didn’t even get an email or anything like that so didn’t even get to enjoy the experience

    Response from Host, Jun 2026

    So sorry about that. We sent out alerts, email and text, and apologize that they didn't reach you. We understand it was a big inconvenience and apologize. We did provide you with a refund.

    DC night boat cruise I would do it again

    Kathryn_C, May 2026
    Look for the big blue boat called boomerang at least that’s what we were on. We took the night cruise. It was hard to know if we were gonna leave at 7:45 or if we had to be there by 7:45 make sure to leave extra early. Traffic was bad the night we were going downtown DC luckily we didn’t miss it but we were one of the last ones on service was well done. I think they did close the bar a little too early. They did not announce the last call a few people were complaining about that but overall good DJ music good drinks and there were snacks and friendly staff. Very helpful staff. I’ll highly recommend this.

    The open bar and bartender (sorry I forgot her name) were amazing! Great staff, clean restrooms onboard. Good music!

    Best booze cruise

    Meredith_F, Apr 2026
    Very fun cruise with a good mix of music and ages groups. Wear flat comfy shoes and be prepared to walk up and down a few stairs to get to upper deck. Maybe a hat as it’s windy up there. We had a blast!
