There is something for everyone. Lots of shtick by the clever and enthusiastic staff. Varied activities throughout the cruise and lively music kept our spirits high, even though it was raining. The staff knew how to get everyone involved, from shy 3-year olds to too-cool teens. Some fun surprises - you'll have to go to find out. Good value - it's the experience and the memories.

For the 2nd year in a row we've gathered some friends and family for a day drinking ride on the pirate boat. It's a good silly dumb time. Just buy into campiness and live it up! Also bring a cooler of your favorite beverages and enjoy the ride. The crew is the best on the seven seas.

Best decision we made in the Baltimore Harbor! My 8-year-old loved every minute, so did his dad and I. The staff is funny and welcoming, the harbor views are beautiful, and the show is engaging. Even with blazing sun, it was a super fun boat ride.

Unexpected fun! A friend wanted to try this, so I begrudgingly went, and ended up loving it! I tend to get seasick, but was not a problem at all.

The 7 year old loved it! He had been a few years prior but didn't remember it. This time he had a blast. The crew is really engaging and does activities with the kids the entire time with few whole family activities thrown in. Definitely arrive early. Everyone gets a pirate name, and kids can get tattoos and scars. There is seating around the perimeter but no shade. There is a restroom on the boat but no food or drinks available.Parking can be a challenge, especially at the Broadway pier. We parked in the lot at Caroline and Thames and cut through the building walkway to the boat. Expect to get a little wet as there are water cannons for the kids to shoot off the deck but the wind will blow water back. The ride itself is about an hour. I'd say this is really targetted at 5-10 year olds. The toddlers were a bit too young to do all the activities and older kids might find it too juvenile. There was a good variety of activities from dancing, to limbo, a story, singing songs, a game, and attacking a rival pirate. this si not a quiet boat ride around the harbor. The crew did a good job of engaging the kids but also letting those who weren't up to it to participate at their own pace.
