  2. Bottomless mimosa brunch cruise on the Potomac River, Washington DC2

    2. Bottomless mimosa brunch cruise on the Potomac River

    4.4· 254 reviews· 2 hours

    Two-hour cruise on the Potomac with a buffet brunch, unlimited mimosas, and views of iconic landmarks.

    I had a fantastic experience. The food was excellent, and our server made sure our glasses were always full. The staff was incredibly friendly, and DJ Rich really knew how to keep the energy up. I also appreciated the professionalism of the young ladies taking pictures; my photos turned out beautifully and cost $43. One suggestion I have is for them to include the boat name on the tickets for easier boarding. I definitely recommend this activity, and my husband and I plan to return. It was a great experience.Demond_R
