We were in Seattle for a few days before an Alaskan cruise. We wanted a unique experience so when I found Enchantress Cruises, we were sold on the idea. Experience has taught me to be cautiously optimistic but Tim and Captain John delivered in a spectacular way. Great tour, incredible food and just a perfect way to spend an afternoon. if I could give more than five stars I would. read more

I cannot rave enough about how lovely our time with Enchantress Cruises was! I booked the dinner cruise as a surprise for my husband's birthday. The experience was worth every penny and then some. The luxury, quality, and attention to detail is unmatched. Mark, the owner, was so attentive and a pleasure to work with. He took care of all the details and answered all my questions. The boat was beautiful and spacious for the two of us. We enjoyed the views and conversation with the crew immensely. My husband is a huge Sleepless in Seattle fan and the highlight of the evening was passing the floating house. The food was amazing. Everything was farm to fork fresh and prepared by a chef onboard. I highly recommend the crab cakes and homemade bourbon ice-cream. The pace of the evening was lovely, it didn't feel rushed or lagging. You could tell Mark worked hard to make sure that our experience from the moment we stepped aboard was seamless. He thought of everything, even providing a cozy blanket when the wind became a little chilly towards the end of the night. I cannot recommend Enchantress Cruises enough! Thank you for a lovely and memorable evening! read more

Got proposed on the cruise, luckily it's a gorgeous day and we had a great time. Mark, Chef and the captain are all so hospitality and knowledgable. The cruise was gorgeous, and the dinner was amazing, missing the crab salad soooo much. Big thanks to Mark for capturing the special moment for us, I love every photo he took. We had a 4-hour tour, I enjoyed every minute on the cruise, watching the skyline, the lake and the sunset. The time on the cruise is so chill and wonderful, definitely something we will never forget. Highly recommend this tour!! read more

Enchantress Cruises - Boat Charters Near Me

Mark is a local artist and entrepreneur whom reside in Seattle. A deep and wise soul that have had so much success in his many past endeavor. His boat is beautiful and timeless. The boat is breathtaking from every angel you stare from. Every spot on the boat will give you a wonderful and unique view that would captures in your memory like a canvas inside your museum. The food was a 10/10. I would recommend that you ask for about 1 hour of quite and relaxing time while the boat isn't moving and there is no noice, that way you and your guest can absorb it all in. If you want have a great meal, see Seattle from the water (a must), make a new friend, learn about art, about businesses, about Seattle, about cooking and maybe about life. Book the trip with Mark, you don't regret it. read more

This weekend was my anniversary and I decided to take my wife on a private dinning experience with Enchantress Cruises. Honestly, I was not sure what to expect and I actually found this company by accident when I was looking for a Fourth of July event. Needless to say, they have exceeded my highest expectation in hospitality, food quality and overall experience. Mark has been a wonderful host and chef and I highly recommend him and his company to any couple or a small group of friends that want to spend an incredible evening of celebration. I wish I can give this company more than 5 stars because they truly deserve it. The only unfortunate thing about this experience, is that we do not have an enchanteress cruise in California. But again, it give us another reason to come back to Seattle ! read more

Thank you so much to Chef and Carol M. owner Mark, and his Captain, Greg, for going above and beyond to make our cruise such a wonderful evening. Everything from arranging the cruise to our final moments of the cruise we tried to hang onto for as long as possible were made flawless by Mark and his Captain. Everything about our experience was exceptional. The food, the boat, the service, ect. We were very lucky to have the most perfect weather for our sunset cruise as well! It was an evening that only lasted a few short hours, but will be remembered fondly forever. Do not hesitate to book this wonderful service for your next event, or even just an evening out. We were all long time Northwest residents, so you might not think about doing something like this as locals, but it is definitely a bucket list experience. And if you are not from the Pacific Northwest, it is the perfect, relaxing way to take in a lot of the scenic beauty and wonderful food offerings here. Thank you so much for making this possible! read more

I booked a sunset dinner cruise with Mark and team in July of 2017 for my mother's 60th birthday. Everything was spectacular - from the first time I reached out to him via email to the evening of the dinner. I tend to be terrible with email and follow-up but Mark made the entire planning process very easy for me! :) The food was amazing (Mark used to be a chef), our tour was informational and educational, and the scenery stunning. Mark worked really hard to ensure all parts of the dinner was special and amazing for my mom! We will be back - thank you Enchantress Cruises! read more

Better than we expected and we were expecting incredible. The food, the service, everything was outstanding. An absolute dream come true for us. We combined a birthday party and 4th of July celebration with friends aboard this beautiful 1948 'Woody'. Our host and owner of the yacht, Mark welcomed us with open arms and created an amazing experience as well as 5 star farm to fork cuisine for us. From the get go he always gave us immediate response to emails and phone calls, explaining everything in detail including directions where to meet and designing the perfect menu. Thank you Mark and captain Eric for an experience we will never ever forget, for something we will be talking about for the rest of our lives! We will definitely be doing this again.

We had friends visiting from Chicago last week, and we chartered a dinner cruise as a special night out. It was outstanding - by far the best thing we did during our friends' visit and something they will talk about for years to come. Mark is a gracious, attentive host and blended into our group immediately. He had the perfect balance of making us welcome and participating in our evening - but then disappearing to create a delicious dinner while we enjoyed the sights. Captain Scott was a great host and tour guide for the sights we saw around Lake Union and Lake Washington, and he even laughed at all our bad jokes. Our cruise lasted 4 hours, from 5-9 p.m., so we cruised for a bit and then pulled into a cove in Lake Washington to anchor and eat dinner. On our return we caught the last bit of sunset and saw everything lit up on both lakes - lovely! We selected our menu with Mark's guidance, and the pork tenderloin was absolutely outstanding. His wife had just recently made some mango chutney that we had as a topping, and the meat was moist and delicious. I chose a salad and crab cake for starters, and the crab cake was so large and filling that we had more than enough food. I would recommend this to any group of 6 or fewer for a memorable, magical night on the water in Seattle. read more

The boat is beautiful, expertly handled by Captain Bill. The views were amazing and the weather was ideal. It's hard to imagine a better way to enjoy an evening with friends. read more

I reserved it for a evening cruise for a birthday celebration and I am glad I did it. Mark's boat is beautiful, romantic and the cruise was enchanting indeed. Mark graciously shared his knowledge about Seattle and the history of his beautiful boat. The food was amazing and Mark worked with me closely to decide the menu for me and my friend. I definitely recommend taking the cruise to everyone who is looking for private peaceful time with friends on the lake. read more

We booked a cruise for my mother's birthday. The boat is gorgeous, comfortable, and has many areas to explore (we highly recommend taking a turn on the lounge seats on the bow!), and will reduce your blood pressure by 50%. 2 hours flew by as we talked about Seattle history, memories of various places, and enjoyed ourselves. Mark and his captain Dave were so welcoming, helpful and attentive (without being in the way). My "Senior" parents were totally comfortable navigating the boat (with Mark and Dave "spotting") and had such a wonderful evening. Next time we'll do a longer cruise with dinner. Look no further -- this is the real deal. The boat, the hosts, the whole experience. read more

I didn't even know that a gourmet dinner cruise in a vintage wooden cruiser on Union Lake at sunset was on my bucket list. mark and Carol could not have been more gracious to our small group of friends. The boat is like something out of a 1940 movie set. So lovingly and tastefully restored and appointed. On top of bong a great chef Mark is a wonderful host showing us Seattle and the waterfront in. Way that made the city new to us again. After a lazy long late afternoon rocking in view of rainier we felt relaxed, renewed, pampered and ready to sign up again. Thank you, enchantress cruises. read more

This is an amazing and beautiful 1940s wooden cruising boat that is elegant and comfortable. The dinner cruise was delicious, and we went all over Lake Washington. We pre-arranged what we wanted to eat with the owner/chef, and it was just what we wanted. This would be a great cruise for friends visiting Seattle or for an anniversary, graduation, or other special occasion. read more
