I heard about Emerald City Pirates through a networking event at the South Lake Union Chamber and thought it would be great for son's 8th Birthday! The team did not let us down. They made for an exciting and fun boat ride and my kids and family enjoyed it! Thanks for a great day!

We took this cruise with our four grandchildren age three to seven and it was so o o o o good! The pirates were appropriately scary/funny and the activities were packed with fun and education! We would highly recommend this to everyone because all ages would enjoy it. We're hoping to take the adult cruise next year with our adult children. It was a beautiful day on a beautiful lake.

Fun filled hour and a half with Trusty John. Great shows and a fun atmosphere with games. Great with kids - Trusty John was attentive and gave his time to every kid and seemed he had a sense of their capabilities. My son is on the Autism spectrum, the speakers were loud at times but had lots of fun and Trusty John gave him the right amount of interaction. They made it fun for adults too and also provide drinks and Snacks for a fair price at their snack shop including adult beverages.

This was actually a really cute, fun experience for my 2 little girls (age 5 and 6). The cruise around lake union is about an hour long and the kids attention is taken with activities and games played on board. They also have a store on the ship for snacks and even a few adult cocktails for purchase. The ship was the perfect size so that even seated I could keep my eyes on where my kids were at! Will definitely do this again!

Amazing time out on the water with Emerald City Pirates! We had a party of 21 adults, it fit us perfectly. We were able to bring our own booze (once filling out a banquet permit). Peter and Mickey were so accommodating and extremely friendly. The booking process was a breeze and Peter was very responsive throughout it all. I would highly recommend to anyone, it fits all types of groups and all different ages!
