We did the two hour cruise going north to Death’s Door. The narrator provided a wealth of knowledge about Sister Bay and the other areas we visited. The staff were very friendly and we had the best weather on the day.
However, the seating on the upper deck proved to be a significant drawback. As we were facing the opposite direction as the narrator's references, we had to constantly turn around to follow along. The seating arrangement on the upper deck is poorly designed for viewing both sides. By the time we reached Death's Door, we were facing the land side but too far away to fully appreciate the view. The frequent turning to view the land side made the tour somewhat uncomfortable, especially with the boat being nearly full and people sitting close by.
For future tours, it would be helpful to inform passengers that most of the references will be on one side, suggesting that they choose seating accordingly. This would allow them to enjoy the tour with fewer...
   Read moreDespite the slight haze in the sky from the recent Canadian forest fires, our 2 hour cruise was a very good experience and quite enjoyable. The Sister Bay Scenic Boat Tour provides unique views and a different perspective of the various harbors and bays and the peninsula coastline. The crew did a safe and efficient job of loading and offloading the passengers while our tour guide/narrator/storyteller was quite informative and told some interesting stories about the peninsula’s history. On the day of our tour, the weather was perfect with mostly sunny skies, little breeze, and the waters of Green Bay were smooth as silk. Unfortunately, the speaker sound system was not quite loud enough to overcome the sound of the boat motor while cruising the coastline so that some of the information (and corny jokes) went unheard. Overall, our cruise with Sister Bay Scenic Boat Tours was a very pleasant and...
   Read moreAbsolutely loved this boat tour! We did the tour out to Eagle Bluff Lighthouse/Horseshoe Island and then back to Sister Bay. About 1.25 hours total. We were able to bring a stroller on the boat for our 10 month old, which was very helpful. Both kids ended up napping for most of the trip (best $5 nap my husband and I paid for). We sat in the lower deck, which is mostly enclosed in the front. The tour was very informative. We went into the different bays along the shores and got to see the towns from the water. The guide gave us a lot of history, and we loved learning about the area! The crew were also so friendly and helpful. On our way back from Eagle Bluff area, they let every single child take a turn at driving the boat. We thought that was pretty neat! Very family friendly. There were drinks available for purchase, and bathrooms also available for use....
