Two Tours In One - We took the Sunset Cruise with Captain Jessie and First Mate Liz. It was like getting two tours in one with all of the history and highlights seen by daylight followed by my favorite time after the sun went down when the city lights along the river lit up and the Great Blue Herons could be seen posing in the dusk. I can't wait to go back to Waco to explore the areas this tour highlighted. Jessie and Liz endear themselves to you, becoming a best friend. They know how to spice things up and keep you entertained. We loved it so much we plan to take the Waco Fixer Upper City Tour with Liz!

Phenomenal Tour - Captain Matt and First Mate Dano knocked it out of the park! Very knowledgeable, and funny. I was impressed by the entire tour, especially when they caught mine, and my son’s caps when they flew off almost simultaneously!! 6 out of 5 would highly recommend!!

Great evening on the River. - Our family really enjoyed our time on the river with Captain Matt and first Mate Melinda. They were great guides along the river. They even remembered us the next day as our paths crossed again on the river. Even our teenagers had a good time and enjoyed the ride.
