No visit to Seattle is complete until you see this beautiful city from the water. Most tourists take the harbor cruise but the boat curise on Lake Union and Lake Washington has great views of the skyline, has better views of the Space Needle, and goes by many things unique to Seattle. Lake Union is located just north of downtown... More

The Argosy Lakes cruise was very different from the Harbor cruise. The Lakes cruise was 2 hours, takes off from Lake Union, and was a much smaller-scale cruise. Our narrator was very good, having gown up on the lakes, and it made it really enjoyable to hear her personal anecdotes, as well as the information about the sights. At a... More

We really enjoyed this cruise. The guide was very informative and we learned a lot about Seattle and saw a lot of things. The CityPass is a great way to go.

The choir was a high school girls group wearing red t-shirts, not a formal experienced choir. Also, the choir was upstairs and all the seats were already taken so it was just like listening to a CD for the rest of us. The “meals” are dry sandwiches and potato chips. There is one line for the meal, and another for... More

We took the Locks cruise & were bussed from the Argosy pier at the waterfront to Lake Union to board the boat. We passed many of the "house" boats on the lake as well as several yachts. Our crew was very knowledgeable about everything, including the neighborhoods you could see as we passed through the ship channel & the attractions... More

We went on the Lakes tour leaving from Lake Union. It went to Lake Washington, past the University of Washington, over to the Medina area (where Bill Gates lives). Saw the floating house that was in Sleepless in Seattle too. Went under some neat bridges and saw interesting architecture and tons of boats, plus the Seattle skyline and the space... More
