"I was raised in upstate NY and knew about the Erie Canal, but had never visited. We're here on vacation from California and I jumped at the chance to cruise with Sam Patch. My only complaint is I wish it was hours longer. Great commentary, the ride is super and even the box lunch was great. So much to learn about this amazing piece of engineering. Plus, it is a great time on a nice vessel with a lot to see and a very different experience watching the boat rise over 20' in one of the locks."

"I threw a 70th Surprise Party for my Mom on the Riverie! I cannot say enough amazing things about this experience. From the ease of booking, to the staff, the boat ride and the history shared it was an amazing amazing birthday! Great views of downtown Rochester and a fun experience going through a canal lock! We had Board N Bacon Cater it and it was Awesome! 10/10 would recommend!"

"We enjoyed the experience thoroughly. The guide was very knowledgeable. He shared interesting facts of the geography and history of the area. The audio system was very good. You could hear the guide very clearly inside and outside. I highly recommend it."

"We did the sunset music cruise and it was a beautiful night on the water! We enjoyed the beverages for purchase and time on the boat. The staff was great and it was a wonderful way to spend the evening!"

"Wow! Great experience on this recently newly commissioned river tour boat on Rochester’s Genesee River out to the Erie Canal. Cruise past the U of R, Mount Hope cemetery and other notable Rochester landmarks! They serve drinks on board so sit back, have a cool drink and enjoy the cruise!"
