Detailed itinerary

We tour the yachts and mansions as we cruise through downtown Fort Lauderdale. As yacht capital of the world, this city has plenty of awesome sights to see. Your Captain and Crew will guide you through some of the notable owners while you enjoy the scenic route. Enjoy sunset while cruising past the Yacht Club with a nice view of Downtown in the background.

Our tour coasts through this massive port to explore the cruise ships and cargo freighters that pass through. This also gives you a perspective of how much water we are surrounded by in South Florida. With 160 miles of canals, no wonder they call it the "Venice of America".

Stop 3 Pass by

The Las Olas Isles are where some of the wealthiest people in the world live. Surrounded by water and yachts, these mansions are always a sight to see. And you bet there are some good stories to go along with them.
