Great service, friendly hosts, on schedule, small group. Other boats were packed with hundreds of people playing obscenely loud doof doof music. Our boat had plenty of indoor and outdoor seating with multiple trips under the bridge and past the opera house before returning right on schedule. Highly recommend.
