Things have changed considerably for the Continental Breakfast cruise so be mindful of that if your expectations are for the pre-covid cruise, I imagine due to staff limitations. No provided mimosas or hot breakfast, it is literally pre packaged muffins and fruit salad and coffee. Still fun if you want to cruise the lake but it is the same price for a worse experience. Beautiful views. Look into the night cruises.

Took the Fiesta cruise. Not everyone gets a table and chairs, so if you’re not the first 30 people on board then you’ll have to stand, which makes it hard to eat hard shell tacos. Half of the people on the boat did not wear masks the entire time, which made it uncomfortable to walk around, and those were the same people who kept talking right under all of the food. The boat ride, itself, was lovely though, but will not do it again.

We hosted our wedding on the Harbor Lady - it was the best decision!! Lindsey and the Edelweis staff were AMAZING to work with and went through every effort to make our day perfect and seamless!! We added 1 hour to make a total 4 hours wedding event; every guest said it was a night and experience they would never forget. We chose the burgers/brats for our food, which were delicious!!

My colleagues and I did a cruise on The Harbor Lady and it was wonderful! The staff were all very accommodating, eager to make us happy, and the food was great! My favorite part was just getting to hang out and relax with my colleagues while taking in the sights of Milwaukee. This is a must for a relaxing and enjoyable cruise around Milwaukee

Great time was had by all ages from 9 months to 90 years. Extremely helpful and courteous crew. Very spacious boat. You have the freedom to walk pretty much anywhere on the boat. It had a fully stocked bar with specialty drinks, a great liquor selection and a decent selection of beer. The drinks were a little pricey but what are you going to do, you aren't going anywhere. The bathrooms were clean and also quite roomy. The views were spectacular. This is a great way to see Milwaukee and all it has to offer from a different point of view.
