A pleasant way to spend a few hours
Marisa_A

Good option for something fun without a 4-hour time commitment. Expect A LOT of kids running around without supervision, though. We enjoyed the beautiful Seattle skyline and fun facts about the waterfront - and got a glimpse of Mt Rainier in the distance. The kids were distracting our tour guide so his commentary wasn't the best, but it was a gorgeous day and overall a good experience.

I had fun

I got see things that I haven’t seen since I have been here. I didn’t enjoy waiting on the movable dock. I don’t have good balance and I was nervous about it. The dock we had to wait on before we got on the boat. That is what I am talking about. But I enjoyed everything else about the experience. I always enjoy sightseeing on boats. I always feel relax on them. Overall I had fun!
