What a great time we had! Captain Nathan and First Mate Liz really made the time enjoyable with so much information about Waco and the Brazos River. They were so much fun, and took time to learn the names of each person on the cruise and call us by name.

Liz and Harrison were fantastic. This was such a lovely evening on the river, learning about the city and meeting a few new people. The tours are small and manageable. There's time to just sit and enjoy as well as plenty of information to absorb. Even on a hot day it is cooler out on the water and as the sun goes down. I'm so glad I did this in the middle of my work trip.Kyleejorg

This was definitely my favorite part of our girls trip! It’s a must if you are visiting Waco. I didn’t realize all of the history here. I would definitely do the tour again.
