We had an amazing ride with Captain Breezy, beautiful sunset an amazing food from Casa Sensei, we arrived about 30 minutes before our ride. Thomas was great, he helped us with shots and a pitcher of margaritas!! Captain Breezy even had a “Happy Anniversary” signed posted at the waiting area since it was our 10th wedding anniversary!! We pre ordered dinner around 2 hrs before our ride, pot stickers, empanadas, spicy shrimp poppers and Korean steak dish we shared!! All the food was hot and delicious!! Captain Breezy was so informative on the area and all the beautiful homes, she was awesome, great conversation, laughs and the most important part— the gorgeous sunset! Even though it was partly cloudy, the cotton candy multi colored sunset was breath taking!! Thank you Thomas!!! Thank you Captain Breezy!! We’ll be back soon!!

One of the best experiences I've ever had! The trip was pleasant and professional, from start to finish. Our boat captain was a wealth of knowledge! He was our own private tour guide. Another great aspect is, their boats are extremely well maintained. I highly recommend this boating service!

What an amazing experience to discover Fort Lauderdale from a completely new angle! Our Captain, Cptn. Royal guided us during 1.5hrs of pure fun!!! She was really knowledgeable and great company! We even wished the tour would have last 3X longer!!! We brought our own wine and she had an ice cooler, glasses and a corkscrew to complement! What else to ask… This tour is a must-do in Fort Lauderdale, no doubt!

Planned it for for anniversary. We were a little uneasy because the weather was cold that day but thankfully it wasn’t as bad as we thought it would be . Our Captain was really friendly and gave us some history lessons . We did an evening cruise for our anniversary because We wanted to see the Sunset in the water and it was so beautiful. Highly recommend for couples or family or friends just wanting to hang and chill with amazing food and views .

Overall good food, overpriced, but great atmosphere. Service was a little slow, but it was valentines during lunch hour.

Absolutely stellar experience you will not regret. The captain was so cool and informative. I left the boat much more smarter than when I got on 😂 This is something everyone must do while they’re still alive.

I am visiting from Germany and celebrated my sisters birthday tonight with a Gondola tour with Capt Royal. We were able to enjoy dinner and great music during our ride. Capt Royal was so knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. If I have the privilege of doing this again I will definitely request her if possible. She was prepared for everything and took the best care of us. She made the trip worth every penny and deserves the best reviews and tips. I cannot wait to enjoy this again in the future. Thank you Capt Royal for creating this amazing memory for me and my sisters. I cannot thank you enough.

My wife and I went on the gondola tour as one of our activities for our anniversary. I can’t begin to explain how wonderful our tour was. The Captain was really nice and l knowledgeable about views and locations on the tour. I would highly recommend it.

I booked the tour for my husband’s birthday, and it was AMAZING, it was so relaxing and romantic! The food was divine! Our captain Mike was INCREDIBLE, he made sure we felt comfortable and enjoyed our time! It was really a night to remember! A 10/10 experience 👏🏻

Wonderful experience!!!! We planned our Anniversary and went on the Gondola. Our Captain Breezy was exceptionally great. She took her time to explain in details the history of Fort Lauderdale River, the houses, the city. She was a great host. We enjoyed a beautiful night on the river. We brought our own drinks and food but you can order ahead of time dinner for a great Sushi place that they offer. I will recommend this to anyone who wants to enjoy a day or night on the river!

a wonderful place. I recommend it to everyone. if you want a nice experience visit Riverfront Gondola Tour

Capt Craig’s the real deal. Had a wonderful dinner with beautiful sights. Everyone at Riverfront Gondola Tours is superb and easy to work with planning from many options they offer. Highly, highly recommended!

One of my most Unforgettable romantic Gondola Tours at Fort Lauderdale's Waterways My Review: As a local Google guide, I've had the pleasure of experiencing many attractions our city offers, but the Riverfront Gondola Tours are an absolute must for both tourists and locals alike. Imagine gliding through the picturesque canals of Fort Lauderdale, often dubbed "the Venice of America," in a luxurious American gondola that comfortably accommodates up to six guests. This intimate setting ensures you can stretch out and enjoy the serenity with just your companions and the knowledgeable captain. Adhering to Coast Guard regulations a maximum of 6 persons (Only Six People), each tour is exclusive to your party, ensuring a private and personalized experience. With a duration of approximately 90 minutes, you'll be taken on a leisurely journey past majestic yachts, opulent mansions, and you'll even soak in a bit of local history. The tranquility of the electric-powered gondolas enhances the experience, providing a noise-free, vibration-less ride without any unpleasant fumes – an eco-friendly choice for the environmentally conscious. The versatility of the tour makes it an ideal choice for a variety of occasions, including anniversaries, date nights, entertaining out-of-town guests, birthdays, or simply for an exceptional sightseeing adventure. Opt for a daytime tour to witness the awe-inspiring waterfront of Fort Lauderdale, catch a sunset tour for a dazzling display, or select an after-dusk excursion to bask in the romance of the city's illuminated beauty. Guests are welcome to bring their own refreshments on board; however, for those seeking to elevate their experience: **Dinner Cruise Option**: Turn your tour into a gastronomic delight with the Dinner Cruise option. In partnership with Casa Sensei restaurant, you can indulge in a sumptuous meal served directly aboard your gondola just before you set sail. This delightful addition is perfect for those special moments, combining gourmet dining with the enchanting backdrop of Fort Lauderdale's waterways. In summary, whether you're looking for a unique way to celebrate a special occasion or simply want to experience the city from a new perspective, Riverfront Gondola Tours offers an unmatched, tranquil, and romantic adventure on the water. I’ll be going back on the tour as many times as I can

Great experience, dinner cruise is way to go. Capt Royal was a pleasure to cruise with, very knowledgeable and fun to chat with. Highly recommend them when in Ft Lauderdale.

I recently had an amazing gondola ride through Fort Lauderdale, and it was truly unforgettable! Our captain, Royal, was not only knowledgeable about the area but also incredibly friendly. She made the experience all the more enjoyable with her warm personality and interesting insights. The scenic beauty of Fort Lauderdale from the gondola was breathtaking, and Royal's guidance and company made it a perfect outing. Highly recommended!

We had an amazing Riverfront gondola tour during the sunset with my family. The captain was not only professional but also incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, making the trip memorable. The stunning views paired with top-notch service create an experience I would happily repeat. Highly recommended! We finished our night with an amazing dinner at Casa Sensei !

Can’t recommend enough! Super relaxing for the whole family. We went on Thanksgiving after dinner and it was a great time. The captain, Captain Royal was wonderful and easy to chat with. She made sure we had everything for our snack, ride, and once we docked. We will definitely be returning with some friends or some family!

This was an amazing experience and Jeff made it even better! My husband surprised me for our anniversary and we arrived and our food was in the table ready for us to eat. Our reservation was for 9:00 pm, weather was perfect and it was an unforgettable date night.

Captain Lee gave us a great evening cruise Friday night! Knowledgeable, warm and professional, he offered the right mix of information, custom music and friendly company. I have made this trip several times and this was the best by far!

This was such a relaxing tour. 10/10 I highly recommend anyone going on this tour even if you are from the local area. Our Captain Jeff really made our experience special & he answered all of our questions! Date night or girls day please add this to your itinerary. Completely worth it!

Fun, relaxing, beautiful scenery and a great way to see Fort Lauderdale! Caption Royal was personable and knowledgeable We had a great time

I booked a dinner ride to celebrate my husband's birthday. It was truly a wonderful experience. Our captain was well experienced and very Knowledgeable. From the time we booked and placed our food order with casa sensei to the time we boarded the gondola it was such a smooth transition. From the hot meal to the stories of their experiences of Saint Thomas. The laughter and smile on my husband's face the whole night will forever be memorable. Thank you ( David i believe our captain name was, we apologize it slipped our minds) however we will return. A truly unforgettable experience ❤️

My boyfriend and I had the most amazing time with Riverfront Gondola! Our captain was so sweet and knowledgeable, the food from Casa Sensei was delicious, and the views were incredible! 10/10 recommend!

Captain Royal was amazing. She is very knowledgable of the area. She Shared some funny stories and ensured we were safe at all times. A very lovely person. Adding the dinner option was a great choice. The food at Casa Sensei is delicious. Definitely recommend to do this during your visit to Fort Lauderdale.

My husband and I went to experience the gondola boat tour and it did not disappoint! We were celebrating our 10th anniversary and our Captain Mike was awesome! He treated us well and he’s a funny guy. He also had a great music playlist! We saw beautiful mansions, enjoyed the sunset and the water was nice, calm and relaxing. We ordered food from Casa Sensai and the food was delicious! Everything was so well organized between ordering the food and having it ready on the boat. It was just perfect! I would truly recommend doing the gondola boat tour! It was truly an awesome experience a great 10th anniversary! Thank you!

I came for a girls trip and we couldn’t have had a better time. Captain Royal was PHENOMENAL! So knowledgeable and entertaining. She thinks of everything and had Girl Scout-level preparation. My friends and I didn’t want to get off when it was time to leave. I would come back to this excursion just to have her as our captain again.

Y'all, oh-em-gee, how have I been living in Fort Lauderdale this long and only now experiencing Riverfront Gondola Tours?!? I was looking for the perfect dinner experience to enjoy with my husband for our 30th anniversary, and this surpassed all my expectations. Book it, don't think about it, and book the dinner option too!!! The gondolas are docked right in front of Casa Sensei which lends itself to the perfect pairing. You simply call Casa Sensei on the special phone number provided at booking, and place your order a few hours prior to departure. You will find your food has been delivered fresh and ready to eat when you board your gondola. We ordered the chicken pad Thai and the sesame chicken with a slice of almond cake for dessert. Everything was seriously so delicious. As we cruised the breathtaking canals of Fort Lauderdale, our super-friendly Captain David provided the most interesting narrative about the scenery. He was so hospitable, clearing our dishes when we finished and providing to-go boxes for our left overs. The weather was perfect. I also loved the timeframe we booked of 7:30pm to 9:00pm because we had the benefit of daylight, catching the sunset and a lovely evening ride. Additionally there is typically less boat traffic in the evening David shared. We ended our evening feeling fulfilled and stomachs filled! I'm already contemplating our next booking which we will share with our grown kids.

Capt Royal was our Captain, she was the absolute BEST!! Not only was the views and the experience great, she made the experience even better. Capt Royal was prepared and had everything we needed. She took pictures for us and found us the best views. Definitely 10/10 recommend HER to be your captain.

Capt Royal was an absolute delight. Such a relaxing cruise with a bottle of wine and my husband. She really made the experience amazing, would recommend to everyone, we will certainly come back when we visit again

My husband and I decided to do the gondola tour and really enjoyed it. The captain knew a lot about the location, wildlife and homes we saw on the waterways. We thoroughly enjoyed the knowledge and relaxation of this tour! We will definitely do it again.

We did the dinner cruise and was 100% satisfied with our decision. Capt. Breezy was awesome and gave us plenty of local history on the many beautiful homes we saw on our trip. The entire experience was exceptional. We are definitely doing this again!

This was our first vacation to the area. I found this while doing researching things to do in the area. Great reviews sold me on booking. So glad we did! Amazing views, professional,knowledgeable, and extremely friendly captain made this worth every penny!

My girlfriend and I booked a gondola ride for a date night and it was absolutely amazing the food from casa senses was phenomenal. Captain Jeff really made the night he was very personable and was full of facts which made the ride even more entertaining. Would definitely recommend!

Captain Royal was simply the best!! We had a fabulous time and dinner was amazing! I would highly recommend everyone in the area do this it was our 30th wedding Anniversary and it was a very memorable evening. Thank you again so much Captain Royal, hope to cross paths again someday!

Took my friends from out of town to this gondola ride and it was perfect! It was a calm ride, we had dinner the weather was great in the evening! Captain Breezy was amazing gave us a bit of history and just great conversation all around! Definitely recommend!

Me along with my mom and aunt took the tour as part of my aunt's birthday celebration weekend in Ft Lauderdale thos past weekend and it was just perfect. The food from Casa Sendei was delicious and the staff was very nice. Our Chaptain (hate I can't remember his name was,stole a pic of him, lol?) was just amazing,professional and very knowledgeable. I will definitely recommend this tour for anyone visiting Ft.Lauderdale.

I couldn’t recommend this enough, especially if you are lucky enough to get the wonderful Captain Lee. He was so knowledgeable and gave just the right amount of commentary, answered all our questions but also just let us sit back and enjoy the view. It was PERFECT. There were 4 of us and the boat was so spacious and comfortable. I want to go back and do it again already. Thank you Captain Lee!

What a wonderful birthday celebration! The five of us took a sunset cruise with a spectacular dinner, incredible views, and a wonderful captain. Highly recommend if you have a few hours - what a perfecr night!! Ask for Breezy !!! She is well informed and a delightful captain.

We did the night tour and our captain was awesome. The lights at night are beautiful so definitely pick any tour after 9. Very relaxing and a delight. You can bring your own drinks, food aboard and just sit back and enjoy the night.

I had always wanted to go on this ride and finally went this past weekend for my mom's birthday. We enjoyed it so much and everyone was so nice! Jeff was our tour guide and he was so kind to us. Also, I had completely forgotten that the instructions said to order food 2 hours in advance. Thankfully, they were able to serve us some food super quickly! I was shocked and super grateful that the crew at Casa Sensei was able to do that too. Jeff shared some information about the houses we passed by and took amazing pictures of our group too. I would highly recommend this whole experience 😊👌

Fun time

Unique experience. Thanks Capt Jeff, very knowledgable and experienced.

Capt Royal was soo patient with our group. Lots of talking and questions. She was a great hostess and tour director for our boat tour!

We loved this so much! Such a great date night. Very relaxing. Captain Jeff was such a great host! Highly recommended!

Capt. Royal was a wonderful tour guide. Would highly recommend! What a beautiful romantic night!

Absolutely loved the experience! Everything was self explanatory on the emails, easy explanation of how to place the food order which was also an amazing addition! Captain Royal was phenomenal with everything. No complaints whatsoever!!

My family and I enjoyed this so much. Breezy was our captain and she was very knowledgeable, funny and sweet. The music was perfect as was the weather. The homes are gorgeous. I was so enthralled that I didn't take many pictures but I took tons of videos. The gondola was very clean as well. I would recommend to anyone. Our next trip will be in the evening so we cam see the sunset as well as the home and lights at night. Thanks for making our Father's Day amazing Breezy and Riverfront Tours!

It was worth every penny, had an amazing time. 10/10 would recommend. Definitely will be coming back. The captain was amazing ☺️

My family had such a great time on this tour! Captain Jeff was super friendly and very informative about the houses and views. We will definitely be booking again!

We had an evening tour with our guide Jeff, it was a beautiful and relaxing time. He was super friendly and made the experience truly enjoyable. I highly recommend!

This tour was amazing. Captain Craig was great, he was very insightful throughout the whole tour he even let us choose the music to set the tone. I took my girlfriend for her birthday, it was a very romantic scenery we enjoyed every moment.

We're two couples who went out for a late afternoon ride with Captain William. The boat is really pretty and because it's electric, it was quiet. We brought our own snacks and drinks and a cooler with ice was provided. Capt. William was knowledgeable and entertaining. We loved seeing the houses and boats and especially liked that it was just us - not like some of the other tours. Parking info was spot on. We would definitely do this again.

We celebrated a birthday on the gondola & it was such a cute experience. Royal was the best captain and made our trip so fun! We enjoyed a charcuterie board we brought and a few bottles of wine. They provided the opener and cups. Everything went so seamless! Highly recommend.

I was looking for fun ways to experience Fort Lauderdale and came upon Riverfront Gondola Tours and decided to give it a try. We had the absolute best afternoon. Captain Royal was so kind and pointed out things to look at along the way and gave us some landmarks so we had a frame of reference for where we were in the city. You get a whole new view of the landscape from the water! We would absolutely recommend putting it on a “must do” list.

Great experience with Captain Michael and Riverfront Gondola tours. Yummy food from Casa Sensei, smooth jazz curtesy of Captain, amazing waterfront properties and yachts = lifelong memories made with great friends!

I can’t say enough good things about this. For a very reasonable rate we got a 90 minute private, sunset tour of the Fort Lauderdale canals while we had a delicious dinner. The scenery was gorgeous and the ambiance is perfect - the boat is electric so there’s no noise or exhaust, the seats are comfy and spacious, the lighting was romantic. By far the highlight though was Captain Jeff. He was hilarious, very accommodating, and 100% service oriented. He gave a great tour and kept it lively with fun facts and trivia. This was definitely the most fun we had while in Fort Lauderdale and everyone agrees this is our new anniversary tradition. This is an absolute must, and you should definitely request captain Jeff too!

Best Gondola ride in south florida...loved the boat dining experience while sight seeing the intercoastal mansions...A must do romantic expirience with your partner..A+
