Beautiful scenery

Beautiful place to come sightseeing!

Great views of LOTW and kenora

The cruise itself is very good, the crew is very unprofessional. Would still recommend it, just don't expect too much from the staff.

Paul W

Fun time, and really good food.

Didnt get to go. They wouldn't honour my ticket then they claimed the boat was full. Idk if I'll even try use my ticket now.

Andrew Warren

Everything was fantastic about this cruise. We took the sunset edition. The history provided over the PA system made the cruise especially interesting though they didn't turn the volume loud enough till the last 2 minutes (btw: I am NOT hearing impaired). We did not have a meal so I can't comment on the food.

David Philpot

Great cruise, awesome staff.

Dano Uki

This is such a nice cruise considering we do not have the Paddlewheel anymore in Winnipeg. I love the drive out and the city cruise afterwards. An absolutely beautiful province :)

Lindsay Elle

If you go on the cruise, you definitely want to reserve a table and pay for the meal. When we went it was very very hot and the only part of the boat that is air conditioned is the dining tables. The tables on top are lovely to sit and watch the view but it can be difficult to hear the tour guide and when we went no tables were available due to the crowds. It was a nice experience but could have been more enjoyable if we had a dining table/air conditioning.

Geoff Prophet

Was good

Francis A. Amara

Nice touring with them

George Catchpole

Awesome experience

marlysegura

It was good and it's a nice place to spend a moment with family..

Ken Carlson

Nice evening cruise

Trevor

Thoroughly enjoyed the food and the tour. Highly recommended. And be sure to get the meal, then you get unlimited food and drink and an air conditioned cabin.

Jeff Cove

Excellent supper, outstanding customer service, friendly, very accommodating & you cannot beat the view, absolutely beautiful

Trevor Trottier

All meals are extra unless otherwise noted should be clearly emblazoned on every sign and ticket as to the casual observer one might mistake that it is part of the cruise and be lead into eating expensive mostly frozen and deep fried bar food. HOWEVER with that in mind the history and sights are great and anyone who is visiting the Kenora area during the summer should totally check it out.

Petrus Josephus

Informative, scenic, inspiring, safe, affordable. Well worth the trip there and the ticket price.

Terry Driedger

Very nice cruise around the lake. Nice audio tutorial of the area as you make your way around the lake. Found it to be priced right. good value!

Victor D

Comfortable great staff

Ryan Beaumont

Get to know Kenora and the Lake of the Woods aboard this wonderful cruise! Excellent food at a reasonable price. Excellent tour with interesting facts and stories. This is a must whether you are a one-time visitor or a long-time resident!

Steve JACKO

Beautiful boat ???? and once its active after COVID. The trip and sight seeing of Lake of the Woods is very beautiful and relaxing. All new visitors should go on the M S Kenora Cruise Boat. Highly recommended

Claudio Jonas Giesbrecht

Cool

Bobby

Mark Enge

Don't Miss this One

Alice Soares

We went on the 3 hour tour...deadly ..boring.. they try to announce "interesting " facts..m I would have rather just site see... distracting and well boring

Lydia Calhoun

Fun experience on the water! Lake of the Woods is such a beautiful area. A great way to see the sights.

Naseer Mansoor

Fantastic

Bruno's Taxi

Very nice cruise on Lake of the Woods. Food was great as well as the Service. Very enjoyable experience.

Shamsher Singh

I will recommend this cruise to all. Its amazing. The Cruise is nice, staff is very friendly, Help is immediately available. Food quality and taste is up to expectations. You can click pictures with aeroplanes and there is a nice restaurant across the street. Two suggestions; Increase volume on speakers or speak loudly. There is no point of guided tour if people can't listen to interesting facts and stories. Please have dedicated place for families with Children to sit, pressure horn is not good for their ears.

What a nice place

John Delisle

A really nice way to spend 2 hours on the lake learning Kenora and lake trivia. The kids loved it. Food was very salty, but otherwise good.

Brett Roberts

Friendly staff, good food.

Dimitris Protsios

Great experience. I think it's a "must do" when visiting Kenora. Lots of interesting information during the excursion, from the tour guide although the volume was very low at some parts. The food (if you go for the diner ) was tasty, portions were big and the service was nice. Worth the money for two full hours. Welcoming and friendly staff aboard the ship.

Karl S

This 3hr cruise on Lake of the Woods, Kenora, is relaxing and informative with excellent commentary about the many islands, homes, vip's and the long history of this historic and beautiful area. Meals including buffet dinners are available on some cruises and make this an unforgettable tourist attraction. Recommended for all those who love natural beauty, clean waters, eagles, and much more

Henry Wesley

good

Bonnie Peters

It was closed. Very nice day to spend but disappointing how little was open.

Good experience

Mani Brar

very nice

Andy Crawford

Nice 1.5 hour cruise around lake. Excellent food and drink service. Recommend it.

Gleb Rodov

Not bad cruise, but not enough space to all guests on the upper deck and no A/C on the lower deck, so for seniors it was hard.

Shaun and Angela Martin

A really nice way to view the area and get history lesson as well. Very interesting.

Prabh Dhiman

Nice place for boating

Meire Anne Mario

That was amazing..the food, the atmosphere and the staff..really recomended it..

Guy thierry

(Translated) Excellent lakeside resort, beautiful Lake of the Woods and its many islands (Original) Excellent lieu de villégiature lacustre , magnifique lac des bois et ses nombreuses îles

Roman Abad

Good food.

Jarrett Decker

It was a great time for me and my family. Even though it was a little dreary outside the local folk lore and stories told by the captain (pre-recorded) kept us entertained. The food looked amazing and reasonably priced. The one draw back keeping this review from getting 5 starts is the lower deck and out side chairs. Both items are old or at least appear to be old and well weathered. If the boat had been full and we were forced to sit in the lower deck I wouldn't be writing a warm review. The outside seats were plentiful but very sun faded and rough looking. Two small detractors from an otherwise entertaining boat ride.

Iván Castiblanco

Great crew. Cool ride. I had never been before and I hope to coming back soon.

Nacho Boveri

Super cool!

Uri Zaprudsky

Highly recommended, the views are breathtaking

M Flemming

Great

Beautiful!

Very informative tour guide. Nice to sit down relax and have a few drinks and enjoy the view. Done this three times probably will do it again.

Rod N

I took my Church youth group on the boat as part of our study on creation, this was a great experience for them as we floated along seeing some amazing scenery and experiencing God's handiwork. Great facility very clean and reasonable pricing for lunch!

Seymorque

Make sure you sit on the right side, if you want the best views

John Stewart

A+Cruise A+Food scenery is Priceless!

philip Cochrane

Great tour !

Ray Mackintosh

Such a great time. If you like history this is the cruise for you. Super friendly staff that actually can hold a conversation. Drinks are reasonably priced and the cruise is just long enough.... Bathrooms and you can even smoke on the poop deck...least that's what I called it. Great time had for sure. It's worth the 30+ per person.

Tennille Bartelings

Great afternoon or evening activity. Whether you're a local, visitor or a summer home visitor this cruise takes you on a trip through the history of the area and points out all the interesting spots on the big lake! Bonus points: there's a bar and food.

Greg Kroeker

Always a real treat. We prefer the longer and more colorful evening cruise but the afternoon cruise is good too.

Morgan MacDonell

Beautiful day cruise on the M S. The story telling was great with enough pauses for conversation, the views were lovely and though we didn't eat the smells of lunch were mouthwatering.

Marina Smith

The tour was fun, you toured around for almost 2 hours all around, bring a jaket though because it can get breezy in the evening.

Shelby Manaigre

Drove all the way out from MB to go for dinner, tried booking online but as we dont have a credit card we couldnt pay. Either way, they didnt sail that day, even though it was on the schedule. They had nothing posted at the docks either to explain if they were or not, waited in the parking lot for 45 minutes and saw nothing. Pretty disappointed after there was ads everywhere for the "last chance" of the summer

Larry Litt

Scenery is outstanding!

Mudd Monk

Nice boat ride

Marnie Johnson

Loved it.

T Henry

Great views on the top level, enjoyable cruise.

Just beautiful and well worth the price of admission

nandan satheesh

Went for the cruise, It was a nice experience not at all boring Food was great Tried the signature cocktails, it was disappointing Mimosa too didn’t feel good.Beers are dependable..

Christopher Schuitema

Was a relaxing yet interesting tour around a part of the Lake of the Woods. There were a lot very nice lakeside homes, cabins & even a castle! The history of the region added to the experience. Would recommend it to anyone visiting the area who wants to do & see things out of the ordinary.

Awful customer service. Answering machine is always full, they don’t answer your emails. I had to change my plans and cancel my trip to Kenora. I bought the tickets 2 months before the trip and tried to negotiate a refund 2 weeks before the cruise. They haven’t answered back. Awful!

Levi Kehler

Nice tourism place

Absolutely wonderful experience.... wonderful views... great tour narratives of the sights.

Jenna-Marie Tymko

This was my second time aboard the the MS Kenora and while I would have loved for the weather to cooperate and have sunny skies, the ride did not disappoint. The staff were so kind and so friendly. The prices for drinks are affordable and reasonable. Great views. Definitely recommended!

Dave Purscell

Fun trip. Brought our Yorkie. She enjoyed everything except the boat horn.

Darlene Klassen

Boat ride was very informative. But I thought a little pricey.

Kirk Scott

Fantastic way too see the lake!

John Wright

Great service loved the veiws

Jagdeep Singh

Awesome

Matthew Klassen

My wife and I celebrated our 13th wedding anniversary on this boat, and we highly recommend the "million dollar cruise." The brunch is quite good, and the ship is licensed as well. The pre-recorded audio tour is very interesting, and the captain will also point out a few sights along the way. Great way to spend an afternoon.

Tonya Slater

Lots of fun. Will go again

jason duane

A nice way to enjoy the lake

Brian Schollenberg

ROHIT NADDA

outstanding experience love it

Great experience

Manmeet Grewal

Little bit expensive

Rick Harrison

We have taken this cruise several times over the last few years. It's enjoyable every time. If the weather is good you can go on the top deck for the best view. If it's rainy or cool, you can remain inside in comfort and watch from the large windows. We usually reserve a meal when we take the cruise. The food has always been good. The captain gives a running commentary of the history and the names of some of the famous current and past residents of some of the many islands on the lake. Kenora is a fun getaway spot from the city and this cruise has always been a big part of the experience for us. The co-ordinates for the marina parking lot, for a GPS or map program are: 49.76691 N, 94.49217 W (Decimal), --or-- 49° 46' 0.88" N 94° 29' 31.81" W (Degrees, Minutes, Seconds )

Jean-Marc Christophe

We came on board and said we wanted to eat dinner. They said I'm sorry you had to make reservations. Im sorry were full. We said we asked the girl we bought tickets from and she said you just pay for dinner on board. We said o.k and we went up on deck. Not 2 minutes later a girl comes up to us and says we found a spot for you. Come with me and I'll seat you. Fantastic Thank you to the MS Kenora for not disappointing us. Our waitress was great to. I highly reccomend it. It was beautiful cruise.

phil kliewer

I'm from out of province so I called them for information about prices and they gave me a price .I asked if the price they gave me covered the dinner and the cruse. I was told yes so I drove the 250km trip payed for the tickets and then was informed that the food was over and above what I payed..ended up getting a refund and driving back home and enjoyed our anniversary at a different place

Doreen Willey

Loved it and great detail information

Vero Nika

Nice, relaxing cruise on Lake of the Woods. Captian is very knowledgeable of the area. A bit pricey though.

Colin Hazell

Definitely a highlight for a trip to Kenora. The captain was knowledgeable. Dinner (the schnitzel) was great. Our server was very nice and helpful. The scenery was spectacular.

Went for the cruise few times Before , so this time tried the dinner cruise- so the buffet was amazing. The only issue we had was the air conditioning was turned off during the middle of the trip, the boat was full& it was a hot evening & nearly chocked us off, being the top was filled like anything! After making the reservation, driving from Winnipeg to there, also spending more than 100$ just for food . We felt like we were in a hot tub- improvise customer service when u r on full capacity!!!! Now I have to think twice before making another trip to MS Kenora again... One Bad Experience will make customers go away, so won’t realize how many will u be loosing in a season? When My wife looked at the thermostat which showed 85F at that time- Ac turned off. Ac was Turned on Again before 15 minutes at the end... Rest was Good.Also We had to call them to check if our Dinner was reserved or not.. No confirmation mails whatsoever- the explanation was internet was Down- then No calls?Busy season & Taking people for Granted? So Disappointed in the service.Boat was Also overcrowded for the comfort.

Jim

A very busy but nice boat tour gorgeous scenery

Will Kennington

Always a great cruise. A little pricey but worth it for visitors.

Irene Dare

Very good. Well worth the trip to Kenora. Beer & food service was great. The tour guide told everyone a lot about the area and the people, famous or not, who lived or frequented the area. Very interesting.

Jeff Koroluk

Fun little excursion. Great way to see the lakes.

Mike Lalonde

Good direction

Robert Grancich

Very nice for what it is.

Cynthia Peloquin

The food and cruise was wonderful, but the booths a little tight.

Tammy Christine

We did not really enjoy our experience on the cruise this summer. Ticket prices are very high for such a low quality experience. There were too many people on the boat and areas way over crowded to enjoy experience. We expected the food to taste very good but in fact it was not very good at all and way overpriced. Customer satisfaction not guaranteed no refunds no exchanges lol

Barbara Nelson

Not running this year - someone said because of Covid.
