The Buffalo Niagara Harbor Cruises Charter Services have hosted our corporate event for the past two years. The service provided is timely, detail oriented, and makes for a stress free and enjoyable experience. I would happily recommend this as an option for a large social gathering. I’ve worked with Rachel for the last couple of years, and the process is quick and seamless. Contact the charter online, and they will reach out to you to confirm dates, group size and additional amenities like food and drink. I do recommend planning several months ahead, but they have kindly worked with us with less advance as well, which is greatly appreciated. The staff is courteous and prepared, they coordinate well with each other and with you as the guest, ensuring things run smoothly without being overbearing. Food and drinks are regularly refreshed, leaving any hosts free to mingle without needing to worry about the fine details. We had one charter with great weather, and another with poor rainy weather. What’s nice about the Miss Buffalo II is she is a fully covered vessel, and the staff was kind enough to deploy plastic curtains to protect us from further wind and rain, while still being able to see outside. They kept the floors as dry as possible. Rain or shine, this is a unique and relaxing experience that anyone can enjoy, with plenty of space for large groups to wander around, or find a comfortable place to sit and watch the waves go by.
Kelly at the tickets was great and got us to take the trip. The crew was good and Marla was a fun and engaging narrator. The snack bar people were nice and helpful. The captain was not polite and didn’t respond to us as me and my family boarded. We’ve been on this tour before and it’s interesting and they do a good job. They need to give some sort of discounts for seniors and disabled people. I come on it whenever I entertain out-of-town relatives.
The Imperial Court of Buffalo has been chartering the Miss Buffalo for 33 years with over 35 individual Cruises as one of our primary summer FUNdraisers. Every year we start getting asked in January when our boat cruise is. The entire crew is exceptional and helps ensure all of our guests have a good time. THANK YOU for over 3 decades of helping us raise the much needed $$$ for the non-profits we support!
We booked a tour for a large group of our family members during a recent family reunion. The narrator was very gracious to acknowledge our family group during her introduction. This was a lovely 2 hour tour. There were so many historical facts that I, even as a native Buffalonian, didn't know. The tour guide gave very in depth information. My family enjoyed the water and tour.
Miss Buffalo cruise was a blast...Everyone should go on it...It was amazing with Back to the Bars band playing while we cruised....

Experience Buffalo's waterfront like never before on our scenic and historic harbor cruises.
