Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Modeled after the famous riverboats of Europe, this custom-built cruiser was designed specifically for Tampa, offering a unique culinary and cocktail experience along the Hillsborough River. Owing to its ultra-low profile, your captain is able to navigate beneath the city’s many picturesque bridges.
- The bow of the ship sets a romantic scene for vows. Once you’ve said “I do”, the cruise continues as the party moves inside, to the chic, window-walled interior. Our favorite feature: signature cocktails served from the “boat on a boat” bar, crafted from a 1914 wood cruiser.
- Packages can be completely tailored to fit your vision, and give you the option of renting out the entire vessel, or simply one designated space for an ultra-intimate gathering. The boat is available for hosting rehearsal dinners and bachelor/bachelorette parties, too.
