It entails a 90 minute excursion on a boat with a roof so you are provided shade if you want. We had a great tour guide presenting information to us about Presque Isle, saw some light houses, some beaches (Kite beach was great as there were several beautiful kites being flown). I think it was well worth it.

I did a 5 p.m. narrated tour on a Sat. in July. I bought tickets at the booth. The tour guide was…read morenew and mixed up her words and left/right sometimes, but she seemed nice and knowledgeable. I initially sat at the front of the boat, but I could not hear the narration, so I moved to the back. The information was interesting and I enjoyed the views. The tour had a large, separate group in attendance. One person in their group distributed tickets one at a time when it was time to board, while people not in their group were already queued and waiting to board. It would have been better for those not in the group to have the group distribute tickets before boarding to not hold up the line. I went to the booth the previous evening, Friday, for the 8 p.m. sunset cruise. I was disappointed to learn there was only one ticket left, when we had two people. I regretted not booking online earlier (mostly because I didn't want to pay a ticket fee). I called earlier around 3 p.m. to confirm the departure time; it would have been nice if the person advised me to get a ticket early.

We are anxious to ride the Victorian Princes... it's going to be the highlight of our summer experience. All because of Ms Dee and her passion in customer service! NEW UPDATE: You do not need to sail on the Delta Queen when Erie, PA has the Queen of Lake Erie! What a great time we had on the riverboat! Paddle wheels kicking the water; the Captain giving a complete historical account as we travel along the shoreline shipping lane! To top it off... the Director of the Victoria Princess, MS Dee welcomed everyone as we boarded the vessel! Trust us...

To be completely transparent, I am their niece and have been sailing with them for over 20 years. Sailing with them is my favorite activity when visiting during the summer. And now I love taking friends and my partner with me, often times for their first sailing experience. Here are a few things to know. Whatever your comfort level on the water, Captain Ed and Mary can meet your needs. If your interest is a relaxing sail with some snacks and the tranquility of the water, this is for you. If you're considering taking sailing up as a hobby and want to learn more, they have a wealth of experience and information to share with you. I suggest taking bionine if you're prone to sea sickness, and staying on the deck helps too. You can also walk around to the bow of the boat while sailing - don't forget your camera! Parking is free and available close to the deck. If you live in the Erie, PA area or are visiting from out of town, this is a must do. Treat yourself to a charter and spend time with some lovely people!!

There was no disappointment in any way. The event planner did a fantastic job coordinating everything with us! Great venue, decorated beautifully, along with good food! My parents are members with a boat and jet ski so family/friend gatherings are a must in the summer. They have a dock for boats to gas up. There is a restaurant and the food is really good as well as the service. Events are held in the summer with family friendly events as we as live bands. Plenty of restrooms and they are typically really clean. Plenty of parking everywhere! Gorgeous views all around! I suggest watching the sunrise and sunset, they are stunning!
