“They were professional nice and very accommodating. We had a bachelorette party on the boat and everyone had a great time. The captain and his crew were very friendly and attentive.

Some of our team went out for the best boat ride on the Potomac. We checked in right at Market Pier at the Wharf, were given instructions on how to navigate the boat, and sent out for a leisurely, private cruise on the water between DC and Arlington.
We were able to reserve Gladys for our outing, which is an adorable little red, retro boat that comfortably seats 4 adults. It's a BYOB/BYOF - so we packed some snacks and a bottle of wine, which the other adults were able to enjoy (those not operating the boat). We packed a little bluetooth speaker and truly had the best time.
They had other boat style available to rent too, which can seat anywhere from 4 to 10 people. They do take walk-ins, but you'll definitely want to book in advance to make sure you can secure a boat for your whole party. The booking process was super easy through their website!
Nick, who got us situated, gave us the full run down, answered all of our questions, and made sure we felt confident and comfortable to to head out on our own and steer/drive the boat ourselves! He walked through everything in a terminology that was easy for the general person to understand, so if you don't have much boating knowledge - no worries. This specific boat only went 4 mph max, which was perfect and not scary. They also have a video tutorial online which you can watch a head of time to ease any nerves if you're feeling unsure! He also gave us his phone number just incase we ran into any issues - which was a nice added reassurance!
The founders Jack Maher and Jack Walten, both born and raised in Arlington, VA (woohoo!), were awesome and helped us get situated ahead of time. This was truly a 10/10 experience and we HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking for a fun group outing or private summer date night ideas in DC! We haven't seen anything else like it in this area!
You can bring unlimited snacks and food on the boat. We also brought champagne and wine on with us, but they have a fully stocked bar on board that you can pay individually for (or choose the unlimited bar package).
It was a HOT day out but the breeze on the water kept us cool and the shade from the tiki boat. We connected to the Bluetooth speaker which is a nice one and loud and had a dance party!
Also the company was very accommodating, we originally were 15 people but then added 3 more the day of the boat so I was pleased they accommodated us for that.
The company emailed me prior to day of the boat and provided clear instructions and also were responsive when I had questions.
Overall this was a great time and I’m really impressed with the staff and company. Recommend if you wanna have a fun river celebration day with your friends! Thank you!
The experience started late, did not match what was advertised, and the captain’s behavior became so hostile that I genuinely felt unsafe. I was threatened during the tour, and after it ended I called the police because I feared for my safety.
I have photos and videos documenting what I experienced and have requested a full refund. If you’re considering booking with Bad Boys Tours DMV, I strongly encourage you to think twice and do your research first.
Being able to cruise around by ourselves, take in the views, and just enjoy each other’s company while watching the World Cup was awesome! The boat was easy to operate, well maintained, and had a ton of character.
The staff made everything simple from the beginning and made sure we felt comfortable before heading out.
If you’re looking for something different to do with a significant other, I highly recommend this. It was relaxing, fun, and created a memory we’ll both remember for a long time. We’d absolutely do it again.
From the moment we stepped aboard, Tessa and Rich made us feel welcome and immediately became part of the experience. They were the perfect combination of professional, personable, and fun. Not only were they outstanding sailors who made everyone feel safe and comfortable on the water, but they were also fantastic bartenders and hosts who kept the atmosphere relaxed, engaging, and enjoyable throughout the entire cruise.
What truly stood out was their customer service. Tessa and Rich went above and beyond to ensure every member of our group had a great time. They were attentive, friendly, and genuinely invested in creating a memorable experience for our team. It felt less like we had hired a crew and more like we were spending the afternoon with friends who happened to be experts at what they do.
The boat itself was also in excellent condition—clean, well-maintained, comfortable, and exactly what we hoped for when planning a unique team outing on the Potomac.
The experience was such a success that our team has officially voted to make the Potomac Tiki Club cruise an annual company event for years to come. That's probably the highest compliment we can give.
If you're looking for a team-building event, corporate outing, celebration, or just a fun day on the water, I cannot recommend Potomac Tiki Club highly enough. Thank you, Tessa and Rich, for helping create an unforgettable experience for our team. We can't wait to sail with you again next year!
If you haven't cruised with Sea Suite Cruises / Potomac Paddle Club yet, let this be the review that convinces you.
From the very first interaction, the customer service was outstanding. When we needed to update our reservation, the team handled everything smoothly and quickly, with a genuinely helpful attitude. It made the whole experience stress-free before we even stepped on board.
And then we met Captain Matt and First Mate Malcolm — and honestly, they made the trip. Captain Matt ran a flawless cruise with warmth and professionalism, and Malcolm was attentive, friendly, and just a joy to have on board. Together they created an atmosphere that felt both polished and totally relaxed.
The Josephine herself was spotless — and yes, the restroom was clean and well-maintained, which anyone who's been on a boat cruise knows is worth calling out!
This is a gem on the Potomac. Highly recommend for a surprise birthday party, a group outing, or anyone who just wants a beautiful, well-run experience on the water. We will absolutely be back!
