Argosy Cruises - Seattle Waterfront

Went on this as part of a team outing. I’ve lived here for 20 years and still learned a lot. The views are amazing and they even went into the shipyard area where we watched containers and grain getting loaded into ships. Highly recommend if you’re here as a tourist or live here and are looking for a fun activity. Don’t be scared off by bad weather. They have an indoor area with a bar!

We did this as part of the CityPass. It was a great tour, you see a lot more than you'd expect. The guide was great and had lots of interesting facts. Well worth doing it you visit Seattle. We were lucky with the weather which really made the views impressive.

Argosy Cruises offers a great route with beautiful views of the city and waterfront. The boat itself and the chairs feel a bit dated, but the experience is still enjoyable overall. They sell beverages on board, which is nice, and just be aware there can be a lot of motion. The water can get pretty choppy, so expect some rocking during the ride. A solid way to see Seattle from the water.

If you are looking for a unique way to see the city, the Argosy Cruise in Seattle is a fantastic choice. We recently took the one-hour harbor cruise, and it was a fun experience from start to finish. It is the perfect length of time to get out on the water, enjoy the fresh air, and see the skyline from a completely different perspective. The highlights of the trip were definitely the incredible views. Being out on the Puget Sound gives you a stunning look at the Seattle waterfront, the shipping terminals, and the Olympic Mountains in the distance. Even if you have spent a lot of time downtown, seeing the city from the water is a totally different experience that really helps you appreciate the landscape. What made the trip even better was the live narration. There was a guide who spoke throughout the cruise, sharing a great mix of interesting stories and historical facts about Seattle. They pointed out specific landmarks and explained the significance of what we were seeing, which added a lot of value to the tour. It was not just a boat ride; it was an engaging way to learn about the area's history and growth. Overall, it was a smooth and enjoyable outing that worked well for our group. Whether you are a tourist visiting for the first time or a local showing guests around, this cruise is a great way to spend an hour. I highly recommend it for anyone wanting a fun and informative look at the Emerald City

Our tour guide was knowledgeable. The narration made the experience more enjoyable. The views of Seattle from the water were beautiful. We were lucky to see a U.S. battleship docked nearby. We also passed a large cargo ship where an employee was operating a crane to move cargo. Our captain honked at them. They honked back to acknowledge us. Lastly, shoutout to the woman at the customer service desk on June 27th. She was very friendly and helped us change the time on our tickets.
