I booked a bachelorette with Chris at Ven Ramada for many reasons but especially because he was so…read moreeasy to work with and so accommodating from the first phone call. The bachelorette turned out to be ah-may-zing in large part to Chris and Tatiana who made our cruise easy and fun. While Chris navigated so professionally while Tatiana handled the drinks and snacks and music - before our cup was even empty, Tatiana had another glass of bubbly for us. We really didn't have to worry about anything apart from enjoying ourselves and pretending to be JLo on a yacht for the day. Our bride to be was over the moon - the boat added an extra level of special to the celebration. We're already planning our next day on the water - wedding or not!

Wow! What an amazing tour! My family and I booked a 1-hour boat tour with Toronto Harbour Tours…read morebefore our flight back home and we were very pleased with the service. The narrator had great energy and you can tell she either really loved her job or she enjoyed telling customers the history of the Toronto waterfront. I can't quite remember her name (apologies!) but our tour was on 05/27/19 at noon and our crew (especially the girl who gave the narration) had amazing humor, charm, and sass. We had also missed our 11am tour because we ran late in storing our luggage at a nearby storage locker and the staff person at the window had no issues rescheduling us for the 12pm tour. Amazing!

We did the 1 hour harbor tour and really enjoyed it! We had many great views of the skyline and…read moreenjoyed seeing the islands as well. The two person crew did a great job both driving the boat and talking about the sights we were seeing. I enjoyed learning a bit more about the city. One heads up...the stairs down into the main seating area are extremely steep. It's only a few, and the railings are sturdy, but for someone with balance or mobility challenges this could be hard. It might be worth calling ahead to see if space on the small back upper level is prioritized for those who can't navigate the stairs.

We went for the Vegan Boat Cruise organized here and it was great…read more The boat has three decks, so theoretically there is plenty of room to move around but I guess for the vegan fest, they overfilled (at least it looked like) the boat and it was quite cramped. The top deck is from where you get all the views. The cruise was of about 4 hours and it moved around from the dock to the Toronto Islands (mostly Center Island) and then, for about 1.5 hours, just circled in the Inner Harbour. It views are absolutely amazing once it's dark and the downtown lights come out. The event itself was great. It was an all-vegan fest and plenty of vendors showcasing their business - food as well as non-food. Many amazing food items and we had a great time. The DJ on the top deck was great and we had a great party too. Absolutely recommended.

Got a social living coupon for my mom's birthday. We went this past weekend which was on the cooler…read moreside but sunny. I lost the tickets I had printed (recently moved, so papers a mess right now). On Friday I tried calling to make sure we wouldn't have a problem. No answer. The office closes at 5 pm and closed on weekends. But there's no Q&A's section to the website which would be really helpful considering you're closed on the weekends and I'm sure it wouldn't hurt to have that. Anyways I didn't mention anything to my parents and went anyways. I took the confirmation email I had received. I didn't need it. They go by a list a reservation list. So if you're ever in the same boat (haha get it? Boat!), don't worry!!! I liked that they were on time! We lined up and got on the boat, quickly. And left the dock at 7:30 exactly. The seating is very cramped and uncomfortable. You're literally on top of the people next to you. My bf and dad had to move their chairs to the corner of the table to make more room for us. Second, the bar only carries water and pop for non alcoholic beverages. Not all adults drink but that doesn't mean that when out for a meal they wouldn't enjoy a nice punch or beverage other than coke or cranberry juice. Anyways, that was annoying for me! The food was okay. Salad, steamed vegetables, plain rice, baked chicken and salmon. Everything was oaky, nothing special. The salmon was delicious. We all enjoyed that. Dessert was brought to the table. Slices of chocolate cake and a dates cookie pie thing, I don't know what it was. I mean in a way it's good the dessert wasn't good cause I didn't end up stuffing my face with sugary goodness that I went prepared to do! Coffee was available but it wasn't announced and it was only on the upper dinning room. We didn't know until we were heading upto the top deck. The best part was the views. I really enjoyed the concept of dancing under the stars and having the city views. It was romantic and I enjoyed it. The "dj" was okay, there's a lot of different types of people to please and he did his best. I'm happy we went and especially happy I got it with a coupon! Or else I'd be annoyed. Don't get me wrong I still spent a pretty penny on it, for 4 of us after taxes and gratuity it still was a little more than $200. Plus $20 parking and cash bar. (I went on mariposa cruise a few years ago and the food was better and more choices but I believe the regular tickets were more)

Five Stars! Massive Yacht, Seamless Party, and Top-Tier Service…read moreWe chose this company to host a major event, and they delivered! The yacht itself is a stunner--huge, spotless, and feels brand new. They also provide excellent catering services. My party for a large group went incredibly smoothly. The on-board staff are helpful and friendly, and I especially appreciated that the owner is always present to personally oversee the events. While there was a slight hiccup with initial communication, their customer service quickly rectified it. The biggest surprise was the value; what seemed expensive initially proved to be completely justified by the high-quality vessel and seamless experience. Plus, when I realized I left something behind, the office team was wonderfully nice and secured my item immediately. If you need a premium event venue that doubles as a huge yacht, look no further!

Came for an event June 15th 2024 and was having a good time until things took a turn for the worst…read more I was with a group of 5 people including my girlfriend. After some time she began feeling sick like she needed to throw up and was sent to the main floor to throw up off the side of the boat. I was with her when our friend hosting the event told her to go to the washroom to throw up. As she needed to go down some more stairs my friend said I should go as well and make sure she was good which I did. Just in case she was to trip or fall down the stairs I helped her into the bathroom and then to the stall where there was an out of service toilet in the middle. As the two other stalls were occupied it was the only option and I moved the trash bin out of the way for her and held her as she was vomiting. While doing this a woman grabbed me out of the stall and told me to "GET OUT" aggressively. I dismissed her and was only focused on my girlfriend. The female then placed herself between us and began forcing me out of the bathroom by walking into me. Once we got to the stairs my girlfriend was trying to hold this female and tell her to stop. She decided to put her hand around my throat and choke me while I was trying to grab my girlfriend's hand. As this is happening a security guard came down the stairs and grabbed my hair pulling my whole head back. I stood my ground for about 10 seconds before turning around and realizing it was security where I then stopped resisting and was escorted upstairs. In the end I was told I was being aggressive to the female who was A STAFF MEMBER the whole time. After the event a random girl said that I put hands on the other woman (she wasn't even there). Another staff member as well as the girls in the washroom stalls said I was being aggressive with her even though they were in the stalls the whole time. My hands never went up once but because I am a man I was told that I was the one who was being threatening. There were a million ways this could have been handled better and the fact that I was chocked and had my head pulled without consequences for those involved because the other females defended the staff member is DISGRACEFUL. She is still on the boat go at your own risk.

I have to admit that I actually didn't take the boat for a cruise, but I was tormented by it for…read moretwo weekends in a row. the music is way too loud. I tried to had a relaxing time at the Ontario Place on a Sunday and Saturday afternoon, a picnic with friends... what I got instead? overwhelming and throbbing beats from Stella Borealis that seemed to be moored in front of Trillium Park in the Ontario Place for a more than an hour not going absolutely anywhere. next weekend the same sh%#. seriously, this boat is suppose to cruise around Toronto Islands, yet it spends more than an our around the Ontario Place two weekends in a row. till I've read these reviews I thought honestly nobody on board cares about where they go as long as they have music and booze, and I wanted to suggest going as far from the waterline as possible (like middle of Ontario lake seriously, to spare all beach/park goers, not to mention just Toronto or Toronto Islands residents ears). can the management of the company consider how obnoxious to so many people their enterprise is? Can they play the music not so loud, or make the boat go farther away from he shore? or have it actually moving along instead being moored at the same place for more than an hour? Stella Borealis inflicts torture, it ruins experience for people who live in the city, don't own cottages and just have nowhere else to go but to the lake to cool off. I used to think jet ski were loud, but comparing to Stella Borealis music, jet ski engine sound is like a whisper. I mean it.
