Excellent trip out the food was good we had an excellent table and our waitress was lovely, we were lucky as it was a beautiful day so could go up on deck for a while and enjoy the lovely views and sunshine. The entertainment on board was also very good would highly recommend.

One of the best trips we have done in a long time. Absolutely brilliant. The only thing is when you arrive at the place to walk up to the house, there is a little bus that will take you up for free. I strongly recommennd using this, anyone can, it meets the boat and as I said it is completely free. The walk up in the mid day heat, slighly uphill can be a bit much.
So get the bus, the boat cruise is just fantastic, smooth, beautiful scenery, fresh warm breeze, excellent staff. You arrive, get the little bus up to the Home of George Washington, staff here better than you could get anywhere, so helpful, friendly. See a little video, short, in all airconditioned, go on a guided tour of house, all aircondition also. Very informative. Grounds brilliant, little shop etc. and back to the boat for 1.30pm and I think we were back where we boarded at 3pm ish. It was a brilliant day and I would highly recommdend this trip. Enjoy.!

The cruise was great and we loved the tour of Mount Vernon. My friend and I just wished we had even more time to spend visiting the museum. We had a delicious lunch there also:)

I found the staff of the tour company to be really helpful. The boat was clean and in good repair. You get enough time to have a look around, eat and buy souveniers. Overall it was a good tour.

This trip was fantastic. It was informative, relaxing and fun. My Grandson loved it. Capt. Bucky was A-1. He new his infomation and made it very interesting. He also had rider participation by throwing out some questions about what we were observing. I have been promoting this trip at work. Thank You for a great experience.

I wondered when we booked if this was too long to spend but could easily have spent longer here. A grea tour - loved the cruise as a start and finish to the day and Mt Vernon did not dissapoint.
