Cigar Smoking Allowed On outside areas.

Everything was wonderful UNTIL a man lit up his CIGAR next to me. It is the ipitome of rude in my book. I cannot believe it is even allowed. There are no ashtrays! Seems like a fire hazard to me. Not to mention breathing hazard. I will think twice before ever doing an activity like this again. I had no where to go. Only option was 3rd level that was air conditioned to at lest 60 degrees and no one was there. Too cold! I had no where to sit or go to enjoy the rest of the evening. Lady was smoking outside on chairs on 2nd level as well. Paying $100 for this is outrageous! Why is smoking allowed? And a cigar!! The worst of the worst.

Nice way to end day one in Savannah.

The cruise was a nice way to wrap up day 1 in Savanah for me and my mom. There is no narration and most of the time you see construction sites and warehouses. Music from multiple decks and outside speakers mixes and is annoying. We did see some dolphins and it was fun that people on land waved to us passing. The price seems high for what was included. It is more about the party inside with dancing, drinks and food and we more in the mood to sit and see the sites. After early flights and a day walking around the city. The lines to board and get off the boat were long so give yourself time for that.

Tale of two floors

Hard core Miami club party on the top floor (lady on lady twerking), sixth grade dance on the bottom floor (lemonade sipping),.

Extremely loud music on...

Extremely loud music on upper deck, just a extreme party boat,I assume sunset cruise as relaxing, not chaotic, would not recommend for over 20 to 30 year olds DJ catered all night to their wims, every one interested in a sunset had to leave upper deck and complained to each other ,talked to people on the trolley bus and told them not to go and 2 other couples agreed, wish I could get my money back
