Try a Nice Sail Experience for a Change - Yes I would recommend- excellent value experience! Getting out of the harbor they use a gas engine. Once out of the dock area, since it's a sailboat, they use their sails so its a very relaxing & nice slow paced cruise encircle the harbor. You get a great view of the harbor ports and the Seattle Great Wheel and Seattle needle and building in the back ground and the ocean & other lands in the opposite directions. They offer wine and can soda for very minimal price ($1-few$). Guest have the opportunity to help raise the sails. Upon returning to dock the captain & 2 person crew have to put the sails down and pack them up which expends a lot of energy and reminds me of it show in a way for the guest. I was thoroughly impressed and this is were they earned their tip! I thought the SAILING aspect was a nice change from a ferry boat so give them a try!

Excellent Sailing Trip - The crew were very engaging and made time for all on the boat during the trip. We also really enjoyed being able to be interactive in helping out to put up the sails! We had a thoroughly good time!

Just Do It!!! - The crew was hilarious. One saw I had my jacket zipped up to my nose and brought me a blanket. It was wonderful to get up and move around. The crew talk to us all and shared their stories.

Great crew, awesome boat! - Seattle Tall Ship is a beautiful schooner crewed by friendly & knowledgeable sailors. Two hours was just about the right length, though I’d love to go back for a sunset cruise. It was awesome seeing the city from the water, and the crew made it more enjoyable for guests who were willing, by involving us in hoisting the sails! For sightseeing purposes the weather was luckily clear. Drinks were affordable too! It would be even better if the captain or sailors could provide either a little more commentary about the city or about the boat & sailing maneuvers, etc. Definitely would do again!

Sail away - The ship was beautiful and very comfortable. The crew were very friendly and made sure everyone was comfortable. They went above and beyond, on this trip, to make sure the kids had fun. Highly recommend.

This sailing experience is AMAZING - This experience was phenomenal! We went in September and the crew was so kind. They made sure that everyone was taken care of. The sailing was interactive with spectators becoming volunteers for certain tasks. It started to rain and the crew quickly passed out blankets. Would recommend 10/10.

A great time but arrive early - I really enjoyed this sailing trip through the harbor. Even though it was raining and there was little wind, the experience was definitely worth it. I would love to go again in the summer with clearer skies and more of a breeze. The captain and deck hands were welcoming, knowledgeable, and great to talk to. The one thing you should know is that the time you select for your tour is the time that they STOP boarding. I showed up at the ticket tent with my reservation in hand at 2pm for a 2pm sail and they said that I was too late. While they did let me sprint across the dock to catch the boat, it would have been helpful for this to be explained in the description of the tour prior to booking it. Whatever time you book your tour for, show up 15-20 minutes early to ensure you're not left on the dock. I was not alone in showing up at the appointed time and having to run to get to the boat so it wasn't just me that was confused by the times.
