Family-owned since 1993, the Ben Franklin Yacht offers a fresh perspective on Philadelphia—literally. Step aboard the plush three-deck vessel and watch the skyline, bridges, and Battleship New Jersey glide by while a friendly crew...
This Philly yacht cruise earns strong praise across the board, with reviewers consistently highlighting the welcoming crew and bartenders as standout elements of the experience. The atmosphere strikes a nice balance between lively and laid-back, with guests noting they could sit and chill or get into the energy of the crowd. Scenic views of the city, especially during holiday events like the 4th of July fireworks, add a memorable backdrop to the whole outing. The brunch cruise is a popular option and draws a mixed crowd, so it's worth knowing the DJ tends to lean toward a younger, more upbeat playlist as the event progresses. A couple of guests also felt the food could be more satisfying. That said, the overall experience leaves most people ready to book again, with several reviewers noting they've returned multiple times. For a unique, on-the-water experience in Philadelphia, this one comes highly recommended by a loyal and growing fan base. The staff's warmth and the overall vibe seem to be what keeps people coming back.
Unbelievable service. All of the crew extremely welcoming and big SHOUT OUT to ALL the bartenders! Great crew even better boat trip. If you’re looking to book for a great time, there’s no where else in Philly that comes close. 10/10 experience!
