The weather forecast for the day was not good, but we decided to go ahead anyway. When we got to the boat is was raining but stopped in about 5 minutes.Boarding was easy including getting my handicapped son aboard with help from Captain Ted. The boat was spotless, we were able to open all of the windows and Jennifer was delightful. We had a toal of 16 guests all have sent there thanks to us for a wonderful day.

Jennifer, the tour guide, was great. Very informative with a great personality. The captain was very knowledgeable of the water and handled the boat with ease.
It would be most helpful to have more signs guiding one to where the boat was anchored. It took us about 15 minutes to find the boat. Thankfully we arrived at the boat at 12:55. 5 minutes before departure.

We've sailed with Riverside Tours before and always enjoyed it. This was a new itinerary and it was great. Especially enjoyed going into the bayous where we saw some manatees. The captain and crew were very accommodating and and the information and history provided by Jennifer made what we were seeing even more meaningful. This was a great trip.

Captain Tom called me and canceled the trip for my wife and myself because he didn’t have enough people that had scheduled the ride. We decided instead of a refund that we would wait until he contacts us and lets us know when we would be able to sail. When that happens, I will be able to give you more commentary
