Argosy Cruises - Seattle Waterfront

My daughter and I had a wonderful time! We were a guest of one of the crew members, so we were escorted directly onto the cruise with no waiting in line. The tour guide was so knowledgeable. We really enjoyed hearing the history and stories about the harbor. We had a sandwich and a drink and they were both really good.

Argosy Cruises offers a great route with beautiful views of the city and waterfront. The boat itself and the chairs feel a bit dated, but the experience is still enjoyable overall. They sell beverages on board, which is nice, and just be aware there can be a lot of motion. The water can get pretty choppy, so expect some rocking during the ride. A solid way to see Seattle from the water.

Argosy Cruises’ harbor guided tour from the Seattle waterfront was an exceptional experience. The staff provided excellent service, assisting my mom with pre-boarding and making her feel comfortable as a disabled guest. The facilities included an elevator and clean, comfortable restrooms, which made the whole trip very accessible. There were great deals on drinks; the margarita and the signature blue cocktail were delicious and worth trying. The tour guide was incredibly descriptive and kept everyone engaged with fascinating insights about the city and harbor. The boat was spotless, spacious, and offered fantastic views of Seattle’s skyline and waterfront. The entire process was organized efficiently—no wasted time—and the cruise was truly worth every penny. Highly recommended for visitors looking for scenery, comfort, and outstanding service. Parking: Platinum Waterfront Parking is a scam. Crazy expensive. Use near by garage a block away for 1/2 the cost. Street parking ($7/hr) is even cheaper. Max you need is 2 hours. Else, use way.com to find nearby cheap parking. Don’t waste your money on Platinum parking.

It was my first time on a cruise, and it was such a wonderful experience. The tour lasted about an hour and was guided, which made it even more interesting. The narrator, Emma, was very knowledgeable and delivered an impressive presentation despite the wicked wind. It was relaxing to see the city from the water and learn about Seattle’s history, architecture, and waterfront landmarks. The views were beautiful, and the staff were friendly and professional. I would definitely recommend trying this cruise when you’re in Seattle to learn more about the city and see it from a different perspective. I also recommend buying a CityPASS so it’s not as expensive, plus you get to visit four more destinations. The Argosy Cruise is located at Pier 54, which is conveniently close to the Seattle Aquarium.

Our tour guide was knowledgeable. The narration made the experience more enjoyable. The views of Seattle from the water were beautiful. We were lucky to see a U.S. battleship docked nearby. We also passed a large cargo ship where an employee was operating a crane to move cargo. Our captain honked at them. They honked back to acknowledge us. Lastly, shoutout to the woman at the customer service desk on June 27th. She was very friendly and helped us change the time on our tickets.

We did this as part of the CityPass. It was a great tour, you see a lot more than you'd expect. The guide was great and had lots of interesting facts. Well worth doing it you visit Seattle. We were lucky with the weather which really made the views impressive.

Kyle.... that is all. No, but seriously, an amazing tour for folks who are traveling to Seattle and want some interesting facts. Kyle made it fun and his dad jokes are top tier. Book it and enjoy the views!!
