The boat is clean, has a great dance floor, and eating area. The girls enjoyed taking pictures at sunset on the front deck where I later took a nice, cozy nap with my mom while the girls did their teen thing with karaoke in the party area. Maria was incredibly helpful, attentive, and very kind catering to our group every step of the way. This is our second time renting this boat but I can almost guarantee it won't be our last!! Thank you for an incredible space where we get to make beautiful, lifelong memories with family and friends!

Don't worry if you don't have gear, they do and don't worry if you are just tagging along with someone who loves to fish. A great time will be had. The yacht is so clean and very comfortable. There are bathrooms and places to sit. The Captain and crew are so nice. They are very helpful for people just starting out and they know how to help the seasoned fisherman. You can also charter the yacht to spread ashes of a loved one. I have not done that, but some were doing that before we boarded and they had a lovely little ceremony for their parents. There is also a lot to do right in the Marina before or after. You will love it.

From booking to instructions for arrival and parking to answering any questions we had, they made everything super easy. Captain Breydan took us out, assisted by Rhia (Rhea?) who helped us with drinks and organizing our potluck of items we brought. They were both so kind and laid back and dealt with our birthday antics with a smile on their faces. The cruise was a lot of fun and we even got into a pod of dolphins who were swimming under the front of the boat. It was a truly incredible experience and definitely the highlight of the day for everyone. We stopped to swim & it was all around a great time. The boat was clean and looked great. I can't wait to book with them again!

The only downside was it was extremely cloudy after a whole week of it being in the 90's!!! We changed our afternoon ride for the sunset ride but it was surrounded with fog. Little bummed- It's ok. But the captain was very sweet and accommodating. He had blankets for us and took pictures whenever we asked (thanks for that) We brought our own charcuteries, champagne and had a great time. Parking is only 5 dollars and they are very responsive! I highly recommend Thank you for a great time!

Captain Sebastian was super friendly and a fantastic communicator, making sure we had all the information we needed to make it to the launch ramp on time (directions, parking, etc.).

What a wonderful opportunity for a brunch cruise!…read more City Cruises knows how to put on a fun event, whether you're celebrating a birthday, anniversary, or just life. I recommend reserving a window seat so you can get right up close to the view. I am not a big drinker, so the complementary champagne / mimosa options are more than necessary for me. The brunch is served buffet-style. One floor has breakfast items, the other floor has lunch items. Dessert is on both floors. The food is decent - not world-class, but quite good and certainly filling. Go up on the deck for pictures early, ideally before dining begins - people will start hanging out there once they've finished their meal. Service is personable and efficient. I've done a couple of these now, and I've always experienced friendly, hospitable servers. The time goes by quickly, so be sure to enjoy, soak up some sun, eat well, and take pictures!

This was my first time experiencing brunch with city cruise. A gathering for a friend's birthday…read moreand what better way than bottomless mimosas brunch with a view out on the water. The boat is docked at the Fisherman's Village in Marina del Rey. There's plenty of paid parking in the lot out front. Prices are very affordable for hourly or for the day. We did a Sunday funday for the first boarding time in the morning. There was already a few people waiting to get on the boat when we arrived. Beforehand, there's a photograph that will get your picture in-front of the city cruise with your partner or group. She'll come by later to show you the prints which are for purchase. We did pick up a good amount for the group. Anyway, once you board, they do ask to look inside your bags for safety reason. As you get on the boat, you are greeted with a glass of bubble. Seats are assigned which we had the lower level. There's two main dining floor and a third that's the top where you can lounge. Once we got our seat, you're free to roam the boat for a bit before the start time. This gives people time to get on and settle down. So it was nice to come a little early to enjoy the boat. Two floors for seated dining. Our floor was where the buffet was located which made it easier just to get up and walk over to. While the top level had to come down the stairs to get to the buffet. It was assigned which we were first to start. Buffet style with selections of breakfast items such as scrambled eggs, bacons, sausage, roasted potatoes. Then you get to the hot plate of chicken, salmon, pasta, French toast and the carving station. The two tables in the middle consisted of the cold items such a roasted vegetable salad, a mixed salad as well the lox station with bagels and all the condiments. And lastly, there was a dessert table with a selection of mini pastries, and fruits. It is buffet style so you help yourself. Just as the bubbles are pouring, help yourself to whatever you want. We had a big group which our floor was assigned to a waiter to take care of us. He kept the glass full which was great for a Sunday funday. Towards the end of the meal, they also did shoutouts for all the birthdays celebrations and other events being held on the boat. It was a good little gathering with friends to start the day off. For the experience, it was quite fun. The boat wasn't busy which could factor in the day we did it and time. Price was about 95.00 per person for the unlimited buffet and bottomless mimosas. We had the early time starting at 10:30am. The staff were all very sweet and welcoming. From the start with check in, to walking around the boat and checking it out. We had a nice time. It's assigned seating based on your group. Bottom floor where we were seated only had our party of 13, another party of 10 or so and a table of 4. Loads of empty tables left. The rest of the diners were on the second floor. Food was ok. Some dishes were just whatever but the hot dishes were good. Dessert table was just whatever. Nothing fancy which the dessert were probably frozen and thawed out. There wasn't anything that resembles fresh baked at the time. For the price, it was ok. If you like to drink, maybe you'll get your moneys worth. Food was ok. Our waiter what sweet. The staff were all friendly. It was great to arrive a little early to enjoy the boat. I'm sure you can roam the boat during the meal but we just wanted to eat and drink and enjoy the birthday girl. The whole experience was about 2 hrs long and went through the marina. It didn't go out past the jetty so basically up and down the marina. The day was perfect with the sun out so that made it for an amazing experience. Would I do it again, with a group for an outing yes. Just to do, maybe.

Everyone that went really enjoyed themselves and said they would book another boat ride with the same captain and boat. Before the day we sailed out I asked a million and one questions and they were all answered in a timely manner. Instructions on how to prepare for the charter were clear. Directions to where the dock is located were clear as well. They recommend buying Dramamine for motion sickness. You should get it even if you don't think you'll get sick. My group and I did a morning charter and were back by the afternoon. I thought that was perfect since it wasn't too hot while we were out in the ocean. Can't wait to book another boat ride. Thanks, Captain Stephen!
