The confirmation I received indicated that Silva would depart at 4 PM. I arrived at 3:30 and waited, but saw Silva pass by at 4:30 instead. This discrepancy meant I missed out on the experience. I have reached out via email for a refund but have yet to hear back.
The afternoon tour of Halifax harbor was beautiful and offered a very relaxing experience. The music performed by Mr. Gary added to the enjoyment.
The crew was very approachable and willing to answer questions. The musician connected well with the guests and was responsive. There was plenty of intriguing information shared about the ship and its surroundings.
We had a fantastic time and would certainly revisit. I highly recommend it to anyone traveling to Halifax. However, it is a bit frustrating that I need to write a longer review.
It was a lovely day for sailing, and the experience was fantastic. The crew was both friendly and humorous. My family definitely recommends this to everyone.
There wasn't much information provided about Halifax and the harbor. Overall, it was a positive experience with friendly staff. It would have been nice if they checked in more often for drink requests.
This cruise is a must-do; skipping it means missing a truly wonderful experience. It was definitely the highlight of our time in Halifax.
Even though the weather was good, the boat spent most of the 2-hour tour using its motor. When the sails were finally raised, it was merely for appearance since the engines were still running, and we barely experienced sailing. Additionally, the live music chosen for guest entertainment was overly loud and not related to the sea, and we were relieved to be away from it when we disembarked.
The ship is charming, and the views are stunning, but the live music truly enhanced our time. Jackson is an incredibly talented musician. This was one of our most memorable experiences!
We had a wonderful time on the cruise, appreciated the musician's performance, and were lucky with great weather and a beautiful sunset. I highly recommend this for a pleasant summer evening.
