What a great experience, and we didn’t realize the fun St.Patrick’s Day festivities on the water! Would definitely recommend!

Our guide had a lot of history to share. Unfortunately we sat in the rear of the boat and could not hear a single word.

We didn't realize that parking was 15 minute walk from the departure sight and they couldn't wait 6 minutes for us to arrive- 70+ years old.

I was amazed at how beautiful Tampa is. The tour gives you a close up understanding of how it got that way. It's the perfect way to get an overview of Tampa to help you decide which parts you want to checkout.
