    We had such a fantastic time on our 4-hour pontoon boat cruise! Captain Jason was an excellent driver—professional, friendly, and made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. The boat itself was amazing with a double deck and double slide, which made it both relaxing and fun. Everything felt safe, comfortable, and stress-free. It was the perfect mix of cruising, relaxing, and just soaking in the day. Highly recommend this trip if you’re looking for a great time on the water!
