Nice

What a nice relaxing afternoon cruise this is. We went to a cute little Island to see some birds and such, had a hot dog, an ice cream, bought some nick nacks and cruised on back to dock. All the while being told about all the millionaires houses along the way! I loved it and my 2 year old daughter loved it!!

When one lives by the ocean , there are always people that you hardly know that suddenly become your "best friends" when the weather turns cold up north ! :-) The Jungle Queen is a wonderful way to show your "tourist" friends the city and most of its sights . Ft Lauderdale biggest draw is the water , what better way to see it then on the water ? And the best part ? you dont have to do a thing ! just sit there or take a nap while the captain tells your "tourist" friends all about the city and it's wonderful sights ... By the way there is a local tradition amongst the local boater to flash the passengers on the Jungle Queen ! ENJOY !

• Pros: all inclusive, see most of the city, exclusive water views
• Cons: heat, rain
