Took the evening trip. Saw sunset over the lake and watched buildings light up one by one. Very enjoyable evening. The staff were great and knowledgeable.

I'm not a huge boating fan, so this wasn't a favored experience. Companions enjoyed it more so, and would say the price was fair to the experience.

Took my 6 year old grandson and my daughter. What a beautiful day, very relaxing. The highlight was when they let my grandson steer the ship. It was a wonderful day.

The boat itself was very clean from top to bottom. the crew attended to our every need including blankets for those who needed them including me. The Pearl Street... More

The Spirit of Buffalo is a marvelous trip and the crew provided informative information when we sailed away. The leisurely sail allows for time to enjoy the sights. Hospitality includes crew offering drinks for purchase. Don't miss a trip down lower deck to see captain's quarters and memorabilia. If you have kids, the crew will be very accommodating to those...

do not miis a trip to this architectural treasure. Tough city parking but worth the walk. May be boring for kids and a great little gift shop on site. History of the place is fascinating and well worth the admission.

What a wonderful trip we had aboard the beautiful sailboat, "Spirit of Buffalo." We sailed during the late evening of what was probably the only stormy day we had in Buffalo this summer. The poor weather subsided and we had a beautiful nighttime cruise. Everyone associated with this boat does their best to be sure that you are happy! It... More

My husband and I took the Spirit of Buffalo 2-hour sail in July 2012 with a group outing, and I have to say it was one of the highlights of our summer! Aside from the fact it was a beautiful night (cruise went from 6-8pm), with calm, sunny weather, everything else seemed just as tranquil and exquisite! The cruise is... More

Awesome! Smooth sailing on a beautiful ship. Even the weather cooperated although they can cover it in a hurry if necessary. The crew was every thing we could have asked for. Added a glass of wine and had a great time!
