First.... the Fish Creek Scenic Boat Tour Sunset and Music cruise is a MUST DO experience when in Door County.Cruise originally scheduled for Sept.12, 2023 but received a call from Taylor that Lake Michigan was too rough and unsafe to cruise...we were disappointed but appreciative of their responsible approach. Cruise was rescheduled for Sept. 13, 2023.The cruise left on time with calm waters. Capt. of the boat was "cordial but serious". Music was provided by a solo Singer, named BEN LARSON who played guitar. I have to say I have attended concerts where I paid $$$ for performers who were not near a good as Ben Larson......he was "Fantastic". Great voice and a good guitarist (also acted at your guide & boat hand..they should pay him more money)The scenery was outstanding and the Sunset was stunning. There was 3 in our group and all agreed the Cruise was "awesome.

My husband and I decided to do the sunset cruise tonight. What a great decision! It was absolutely beautiful, even though it was a little cloudy, we still got some beautiful photos. I’m not a huge boat person but with Captain Dave, I never felt unsafe at all. Alan was quite the entertainer and a great singer to boot. I highly recommend the sunset tour! You will not be disappointed.

Our large group went on a Sunset tour and we would highly recommend it to other groups of multiple ages! Kids to grandparents all enjoyed it ❤️ The music/tour guide was informational & funny! It rained a bit during our tour, but it didn't hinder how great of a trip it was!!

Great time on the sunset tour, on a clear and warm night. Alan was an informative and entertaining guide as we took in the amazing views. His music showed how talented he is and the audio was calibrated perfectly to never override conversation. Was easily the highlight of our time in DC, would recommend for any age group. Tip: arrive early and line up on the dock to get choice seating. The rear uncovered space on the boat is the best for photos.

We had a fantastic cruise last evening with our captains David and Allen. We've been on one other Fish Creek Scenic cruise over a July 4th many years ago. This one refreshed our memories. The sunset was awesome over Green Bay. Highly recommend this cruise. Allen plays a mean guitar and has a fantastic voice.

We did the Peninsula Park Caves & Ephraim North Cruise at 1:30pm the other day. Wow! What a relaxing and enjoyable experience. We were in disbelief that this was pet friendly. Our pup was able to join and she was so happy and calm. It was worth every penny. Such a great experience that everyone should try.I enjoyed learning about the history of the area. It was insightful.

The tour was very informative and relaxing. We really enjoyed the ride! We did the West Islands and Eagle Bluff Lighthouse tour. It was about an hour long, and we saw a light house as well as three different islands. We booked online ahead of our trip, and everything was smooth and easy to do. We would do it again, and I highly recommend it. Great experience!

We went on the Millionaires Row and West Islands tour. It was awesome! Betsy was an amazing guide and made the trip so informative and fun. The views were awesome and it was cool to see all the houses. Learning about their history made it extra engaging.She had so many stories from growing up in the area. It was a truly neat experience to hear about Chambers Island and the surrounding area from someone who cares about and knows the region so well.

Did the sunset cruise on a Sunday evening. Be sure to get there early to make sure your group can sit together, as this cruise was full and quite cozy! Adrian and the Captain was very friendly and informative. Lovely cruise that lasted just under 2 hours. Would highly recommend!

We had a great time!We were on the 1 pm tour around Penninsula State Park on a Sunday afternoon. The boat was almost full, but we didn't feel cramped.I had ordered the tickets online, and was sent an email with ticket confirmation. The check-in process at the dock was super easy, and paperless.There were three of us in our group, which is perfect because the benches on the boat fit three people each.Almost all the seats are covered by a roof. We had put sunscreen on prior to the trip, but we were nicely covered by the roof during the whole time. The seats are comfortable.The tour guide was Betsy, a woman who grew up in Fish Creek. She shared many interesting, historic and personal stories about the area while we were on the cruise. She did a great job!It was really fun to see Penninsula Park from the water! The cliffs are much higher than we would have guessed!I recommend bringing some cash money on the trip, because the tour guide and the captain of the boat were so nice. I had forgotten to bring cash. I was disappointed that I had no way to tip them at the end of the ride. They both deserved a tip for their great service!I highly recommend the Fish Creek Scenic Boat Tours!

My wife and I did the Millionaire's row and West Islands tour. It was 1.5 hours long and very informative and relaxing. Jerry was our guide and he knew a ton about Door County history. Before leaving for the tour everyone was fixated on the Fish Creek Marina and the Pershing 8x "Anonymous" yacht docked front and center. Upon further research that yacht is $5-$6 million bucks!!! Lots to see and do on this tour. Highly recommend. Bring cash for a tip for Jerry because he does a great job and has a calming speaking voice.

Our boat tour was great! It helped the Sun was shinning and we got beautiful weather. Also, our tour guide (I believe his name was Jerry) was very outgoing and entertaining. He had so many stories and I learned alot of history about the Peninsula Park Caves & Ephraim! Awesome experience and it's worth the money we paid.

Beautiful sunset boat cruise. The musician would have been better as the deck hand. Played the guitar well with nice voice, but his interaction with the families on board could have been better. I observed little reaction to his comments. Just not relatable for them. More cash went into beverage cooler that night. I would go again! My third trip. First time sunset.

We went on the sunset live music cruise on June 8th, and it was awesome! Great crew, and we enjoyed the beautiful sunset and learning some history of Door County.

We took the sunset cruise on a calm and warm evening. The crew was friendly and professional. The music was entertaining and fun, even if it was not great. The boat was less than half full so it was not crowded. They provided binos! They made a few stops along the way and pointed out interesting attractions. I was disappointed in how little distance we traveled though. No COVID safety protocols were observed.

Betsy was such a delight. She knew a lot of history and you can tell she is very passionate about it. She is very engaging with the guests on board. Her personality is bright and cheery. I liked how she also incorporated her personal experience growing up on and around the island. Awesome teacher.

We had an awesome time! The captain did a great job. The host was outstanding in her knowledge of the history of the boat and area. What a great time. I highly recommend them!!

This is a definite must do for anyone in the area. Fish Creek is a quaint village with lots of places to shop and eat, but this boat tour may be the greatest money you will spend in Door County. The trip itself is lovely on a fine little boat, but the staff is superb. The guide was as entertaining and talented as anyone could ask for. You get to see plenty, and learn some fascinating local lore. See for yourself!

One of the best decisions of our vacation trip so far. We had an excellent musician playing incredible tunes that made the excursion a superbly wonderful event. The only thing better was the spectacular sunset they prepared for us.

Great tour with Jerry and Captain. Our trip was made more enjoyable and Jerry's tips on Door County was spot on. The tour was both humorous and educative. We will visit again in the Summer of 2020. Thank you Jerry and Team. We really enjoyed the beauty of Door County.

We had a wonderful Sunset Live music cruise last night, Ben Larsen was awesome, played some Jimmy Buffet as a tribute. Sunset was beautiful. Wonderful gathering for the 100+Women Who Care group.

Definitely a five star tourguide. Stand up comedian/singer/guitarist/storyteller all in one. The stories were actually awesome, worth listening, entertaining and they have talent for it. The sound of the microphone was perfect. Not too loud.

The boat looked like it would barely hold water. Then the guide started talking, playing guitar, and singing. It turned out to be a simply magical night. Good music, fun stories. Worth every penny.

Our family of four (kids 6 and 4 yo) enjoyed the hour long West Islands & Eagle Bluff Lighthouse Cruise. It was the perfect length for young kids. They had a great time and really enjoyed themselves, but my 4 yo was ready to be done by the end. So this is definitely a good option for families with young kiddos. We had the kids use the bathroom across the street before we left and they lasted the whole time without needing a bathroom. It was, I felt affordable for families as they have a reduced price for kids. We paid around $80 total for the hour tour.We really enjoyed the tour guide and the stories and facts he shared. Be sure to bring some cash to tip your guide at the end! :)It is so nice and cool out on the lake. It was July, but we still all wore jackets and pants for the 11am tour.The boat is coast guard certified and therefore life jackets aren’t required, but are available.This was a highlight of our day in Door County. Highly recommend.
