Fun fun fun!! Professional, courteous, clean boat and excellent boat staff (Tim and Dean? - with the tats!). Our group had a great time even though... there wasn't much sun, it was a little chilly - but it was relaxing and for me, a Groom #1 to do again!read more

Amazing experience- 10/10 would recommend! There’s really nothing else like this in DC and there’s no better way to get a tour of the city.

Took one of their cruises last fall and now I have booked another. The employee's are the best, the boats are new, beautiful and fun, the choice of... cruises are awesome!read more
Had a fantastic time on the trip out of Georgetown even though it was a chilly /windy day. They were prepared and even had blankets. Apparently the... public cruises were just added prior to our booking. This allowed us to have a small birthday celebration with another couple without having to book the whole boat. There were others on the trip, but it didn't feel too crowded for a Friday evening. Good views of the monuments, and it was nice that you didn't have to peddle if you didn't want to. Our captain and "boat-tender" were friendly as well. I'll be back!read more
Had the best time! Chase and Charlie were awesome captains, would recommend to anyone that is looking to have some fun in DC! Can’t wait to come back... again!read more
I booked the boat for my bday and the weather was trash but we had a great time on the boat. The staff was awesome, the boat has everything you could... need. It is great because they charge per person (8 person minimum) and we all know that people flake out and other people want to add, so you didn't need to know the exact number until you showed up. The flexibility was an added bonus. Will definitely be booking again for a nicer weekend. (I'd love if there was a 3 or 4 hour option, 2 never seems like enough!)read more
This was such an amazing experience! Jack and his colleague were super nice and helpful. I would definitely recommend this to anyone whether it's for... partying or just for a chill boat ride with awesome views. Will one hundred percent do this again. Thank you!read more

We were a group of 13 women in Baltimore for a long weekend and wanted a fun way to see some of the Harbor area. The Paddle Tour was so much fun and... a perfect adventure! Our captains Tobi and Dillon were amazing and let us have so much fun, pretty sure the Harbor area was not expecting such a fun crew at 11 in the morning! Perfect way to see the Harbor!read more
My partner and I hosted a retreat this past weekend in DC, and took a leap of faith booking a tiki cruise for our attendees based on Google reviews.... Boy, are we glad we did!

Rented this little dingy for a nice birthday celebration for my wife. The patron was helpful in guiding us to the location along with his pre use... information.The boat itself was nice. I think it needs a little bit more power to be able to enjoy the full scenic boundaries... With stopping to eat our lunch, we did not have enough remaining time to visit further along the river so that was cut short because we had to return to the docks in the allotted time...Overall the experience was lovely, I would definitely rent again and recommend to others...read more

We celebrated a joint 30th birthday last weekend on the Whitlow’s Tiki Boat and had an absolute blast! Captain Luke kept us safe and the crew kept... the drinks and the fun flowing. While it was a bit chilly outside, the clear roll down windows kept us all warm and having a great time on a breezy day. We had about 35 guests on board, but there still would have been a good amount of space if we had the max of 48. If you are on the fence about booking, I 100% recommend doing a private charter on this boat and including the open bar package as well!read more
Having been on multiple paddle club boats I didn’t think the experience could get any better, but no surprises that they’ve outdone themselves again... with the Whitlows boat! I had such a fun time on this massive new boat and will definitely be back! Captains Jack & Jack & Luke are THE BEST in the biz, highly recommend booking this for your next event!read more
Best boat with the best crew ever, can’t recommend this experience high enough! Would give more than 5 stars if possible. Such a fun & unique event... idea.
