This cruise was like stepping into a real-life pirate story. The crew members were not just staff but true performers, fully immersing guests in the pirate adventure. The crew have a ton of personality and a great sense of humor, and you can tell they enjoy what they’re doing. What is life without an imagination and amazing crew! Their costumes, speech, and behavior transported us into another world. It wasn’t just a show—it was a theatrical experience on the water, captivating for us adults. The actors’ complete transformation into their roles made the journey feel incredibly authentic—huge thanks to the organizers! The music was fantastic, and the energy on board made every moment exciting. The Aperol Spritz was so refreshing and was the perfect summer drink. We were always entertained and the staff were crazy funny and full of energy! The whole experience feels like stepping into a real sea adventure. They will also give you the opportunity to soak in the view of Seattle from the water. Definitely a worthwhile excursion! The attention to detail, the energy, and the fun were beyond our expectations. If you’re looking for a unique adventure, look no further. This pirate ship experience is a must-do! The pirate-themed activities were top-notch- water gun cannons-it was like stepping into a real-life pirate story. Thanks for the great core memories! The crew makes the voyage a memorable...
Read moreWe had the BEST time on the family pirate adventure. None of us can stop talking about what a jolly time it was to climb aboard a safe, well-maintained pirate ship and to be met by an awesome team of kind and entertaining pirates who led a really fun pirate school and a clever treasure-finding caper as we sailed Lake Union. We added on a pirate pack (pirate sword, eye patch, bandana) when we purchased our tickets (pirate hats are available too), but next time i'd be like some others on our tour and also arrive in full pirate attire to get the full experience sailing around and waving to the other boats and people on shore! The best kids age range for this is probably fully 3-12.. the 3 year olds could keep up and it was interesting enough for the older ones to be into it as well. Snacks and drinks are available on ship. 10/10...

The boat is clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully set up for group outings. There's a great little bar on board for beverages, and a central area that's perfect for laying out snacks and mingling. The water cannons added a playful, interactive twist that everyone enjoyed. The crew was fantastic—and skilled at hosting groups to ensure a smooth and unique outing. Highly recommend this experience for anyone looking to celebrate, entertain guests, or just enjoy a unique day out...
