Reviews of Island Queen Cruise (Zoo)

Ghata V.

Beautiful view from floater airplane Highly recommend this activity for those that are looking for a new/different type of adventure

Lou Rocha

Very enjoyable 2 hour cruise. Great for families.

Balaji Devaraj

We went twice now. This year was not as good as 2019 as there weren't much of fall colors at the location. But the cruise itself is a good experience for kids. Next time planning on flying with grill.

Dawson Young

Good views and cool if you don't ever go on boats like me

Justin Hopkins

Took the 2 hour morning cruise--it was informative and thought out. Nice way to spend a few hours on the water!

Lindsay Batista Quesada

My family and I went for the 2 hour morning cruise from 10am to 12pm. We loved it! There is plenty of seating. The boat is very clean and spacious. It was so relaxing!

K C

Very comfortable relaxing ride. Spectacular scenery even on a cloudy day. Snacks Beer if you like. Rest rooms. Great gift shop at the dock.

Tammy Frakking

Although we did not take the boat ride, we did visit the gift shop and ice cream stand and we IMPRESSED to say the least at the size of the ice cream scoops!!! Delicious and a great experience, thank you!

Darshan Patel

It's was a nice journey through various Island... Nice view of fall colors.... However, I felt 3 hour to be little more and could be completed in about 2 hours...

Alex Reinhart

Nice place for icecream, and cute gift shop. My only complaint is the lack of organisation around ordering icecream. You order, then wait outside, but there isn't a good way for you to know when your order is ready, other than checking back regularly/standing outside the door with your ear pressed to it

Luis Galvan (NochesSinLuna)

It's a beautiful ride, safe, comfortable, and with amazing views. I was here in the summer, and have to come back in a different session for a different experience.

Rachel Strickland

Beautiful cruise around the islands. Very friendly staff.

Neil McFarlane

A great Canadian experience

Chino Linkz

Even though we went on a rainy day it was still enjoyable. Beautiful scenery going through the 30,000 islands.

Dennis “DMACZ” Macaso

You get your money's worth doing this cruise. It is really amazing to see the waterways of Georgian Bay. Everything there is I love it. I would definitely recommend this on their list if you are in Ontario area.

Fabio Angelini

Great cruise around parry island, covid safe with social distancing, highly recommended if you want to get out of the ordinary!

leto BG

Great ship for post covid day trip. Breath taking scenery and good staff. Food is okay.

Harkit Bhandal

It was interesting to gain insight of the Georgian Bay, and really look at the wonderful scenery that exists. The beverage and food option was a great add on to this tourism attraction. We're looking forward to coming back here this summer. :)

Dave Oliver

It was neat to see the Georgian Bay outer Islands.

Jordan Watkinson

It's a great cruise to enjoy with your family and friends great food and great staff!

Terri Di Mauro

Great cruise with lots of Canadian history!

Roland Smith

Beautiful scenery. For folks that aren't familiar with the area it is a spectacular way to see the area in all its beauty. Stunning views....Anytime of year.....Especially the fall!????

Deidre Atkins

Long trip looking at a lake and rocks. Took the kids... 12 and 10 at the time. They enjoyed it. Remember your hat, sunscreen and sunglasses! You will need money for beverages and snacks... we brought on our own small soft sided cooler with sandwiches... good thing. The history was interesting.

Emily Weber

Great Cruise! They give lots of info through out. On-board cafe and clean bathrooms. Sit back and enjoy amazing views!

Dékány Tibor

It was very interesting and a lot of sights. Much nice housing on the island.

Martin Fischer

Great views of the beautiful Georgian Bay landscape and a very informative audio throughout the comfortable ride...

Marina A

Lovely experience. Great views and sunset !

Don Muir

An absolute delight. We did the three hour afternoon tour. Beautiful scenery. Plenty of room on the ship. A perfect sunny warm day maximizes the experience, sometimes not always the case when making reservations in advance. Hope you hit the right day????

Jag Patel

Very nice cruise

Ayaan kumar

Awesome cruise experience. Can improve on board eatery services by adding more menu items.

Nadeem Khan

Very gud service and very friendly staff, specially dave was very friendly and informative.

Stephen James-Yeoman

Stunning views. 3 hours well spent enjoying the scenery and looking at the cottages of the rich and famous (and everyone else). Good commentary. Would definitely recommend.

RV, Ontario

Do not miss this Cruise at any cost and this statement gives you an idea what an exceptional experience it was even when it was a cloudy day so I missed blue lake water but that's fine. We loved the time we spent there on the deck. Our dog …

Mohammad Sabir

Had 3 hours 30,000 Island Cruise, a great time to enjoyment, friendly people on board, beautiful scenery all around, attentive staff at Reception and Cruise crew. Would recommend to acquaintences whenever they visit Parry Sound then it's a must to experience.

Alex

A great thing to do for the day. I did the afternoon Cruise a d it was fantastic. Plenty of seating and being in the top deck with view of everything around is just amazing. Tons of pictures will be taken and even get some historical and general information during the Cruise.

Jatinder Singh

Very informative and Good experience overall.

Kristy Chown

My boyfriend and I did this yesterday for the first time and really enjoyed it. Amazing views and nice breeze even on a hot day. It was quiet with covid but made for such a nice experience not fighting people for views. Beers and food are fair prices. Would go again!

John Ledger

The cruise was the highlight of the summer. It showcased the best on natural beauty in Ontario. It was truly awe-inspiring.

diane cowling

Lovely dock area beautiful scenery

Archie Ives

we had a great cruise for 3 hours. It is a wonderful way to spend part of the day. The boat is large and clean, There is lots of beautiful scenery> I will certainly take this tour in the fall when colours are at their peak.

Sherrie lee Cormier

Great tour but never saw the top deck

Ann Sloss

Food was great ,service was not so good.The veiw was beautiful though.

Shiham Ghouse

Great cruise expereince on the bay

Cat C

Went for the 3h afternoon cruise last weekend and had a beautiful time! Touring around the 30,000 Islands area was gorgeous. Crew were knowledgeable and helpful, provided hand sani and information that supplemented the informational recordings. Bring a face covering - it's not always possible to keep 6 feet away from other passengers. Lots of parking at the dock and was happy to note that a canteen to buy snacks and beverages was open on the ship. The boat also has washrooms on board.

Fola

Went on the 3-hour cruise with the family and we all had a lot of fun. We also learnt a lot about the different islands including those for sale.

Patto Sanchez

It's an espectacular trip!!

Matthew Smith

Well-run cruise outfit. Good narration, not excessive. I did like the old route better but it's only a slight difference. Great viewing of the 30,000 island archipelago.

Sam V

Very good cruise ride...3 hours of calm and quiet ride.

H M

Great 3 Hr tour of the islands

James Pitson

2 hrs is enough for me, unless you do the music or dinner cruise. Clean and comfortable

Alex Dugal

Lots of people in the area, unfortunately the ship wasn’t running when we were there but we stopped off to check the gift shop. Great spot to take a walk.

Earle B

Well maintained boat. Beautiful scenery with good narration. Excellent value and close to other attractions.

Etienne Lefebvre

I'd never even heard of this attraction. I have family that live in the area and recommended it to my wife and I. We did a 3 hour cruise where we got to see the colour change of the leaves along the shoreline and checked out many of the cottages in the area. The tour has a recorded tour guide that provides you with some unique history of the are that I would have never known about. Totally worth the cost to do it!

Teresa RC

Recommed this trip ti anybody who wants to enjoy the serenity of waters and island views. Very nice.

Albert Jebanesan

We took the three hour noon tour, it was very calming. There were alot of cottages and beautiful landscape. Incredibly beautiful! The cruise does offer some food and drinks, accepting cash and debit. Three hours was a bit long but beautiful none the less. They should warn you when they are sounding the horn as it is extremely loud and really hurts the ear drums.

Kate Smith

Took my 2 boys on the 2 hour cruise and it was amazing!! The sites and education tht come with the cruise are worth every penny. My kids loved it! Definitely will be back! Parry sound is also a beautiful town to explore.

Vikki Morrison

Lovely views, would have enjoyed more narratives of the area

Joe C

It was raining and not enough seats in the covered deck. Many people ended up standing for the full 1.5 hours cruise. Staffs are helpful but the super crowded situation certainly impact the overall experience.

Nick Scullion

Took the 3hr tour in the morning it was very beautiful cruise ship had lots of room to walk around to other balconies and sitting areas staff was friendly and helpful. Definitely will be doing again

steve gee

Must see for anyone going to the area beautiful relaxing cruise with a great view of the islands

Albert Hui

We rode on a boat tour to Henry's fish and chip, had lunch and came back. The whole tour took 3.5 hours. It was fun and their staff is friendly. It was a great experience.

Alex G

Nice 2 hours cruise between the islands

Ronald DSouza

Had a beautiful 3 hour afternoon cruise. Very well narrated.

Doctor FPS

This was one of the best cruises I’ve been on, Good job!

Saurabh Warke

Amazing Cruise ride. BEAUTIFUL PLACE!

shane hotti

The boat ride was great and the lunch at Henry's was excellent. Definitely will be returning for this again.

Mark Carrasca

Loved the two hour morning cruise!

Jane W

A fun amazing experience. We went on the 40 passenger boat, could not have been better. Don't miss an opportunity to experience this boat ride. Staff were friendly, attentive, professional.

Volha S (SuddenGoods)

Great service and great time! The island queen offers exceptional cruise around the islands! Interesting facts about Georgian bay and nearby islands are given during the trip, so you know the history about this gorgeous place. The crew is friendly and the ship is spotless!

Jean Bedard (Jdbed55)

Thank you to the staff for accommodating my needs as a handicapped person. The line-up and the wait was long and the heat just made matters worse but they let me and my wife pre-board. Again, thank you for being considerate.

Katie Bradbury

So much fun I used to go more as a kid with my grand parents i wish i could go again i miss it so much.

Sean Shaw

This is a great place to visit

Rocco Rosa

We went on the Craganmor Point Resort Lunch Tour on the Islander Adventure. It was a great way to spend a few hours. The open boat was great. Lunch at the Craganmor restaurant was good. Pre ordering food is a great idea as the food was ready promptly.

Parul Bhatnagar

Amazing Cruise ride to 30000 islands. The views were simply breathtaking .Loved every bit of it ????

JJ Galavants

Always a wonderful. You see so much, and many, many insta-worthy places and sights to be seen and experienced.

Geo Mall

Great 3 hour tour through the Georgian Bay islands.Very informative tour about the area.

Carl Baillargeon

Great 3 hour Afternoon Cruise here is view from back of ship

prabhjot singh

It's a good experience but I'd say it gets a bit boring after a while. 3 hours is a little long. Rest good fun for one time. Little refreshment cafe is nice though.

Troy Buttineau

Nice cruise. Great to be out on Georgian bay Parry Sound area

Kevin Griffin

Enjoyed the day with a great lunch!

Boniface Viegas

Nice pleasant ride. Reasonable prices for snacks and drinks, boat prices. Very scenic area.

Laurie Ballentine

Two hour ride is just the right one for little kids to do would do it again

Curt Crossman

The cruise was great and the ship was very clean. The food selection could be much better, seems like a huge missed opportunity. Nothing for vegetarians to eat either.

Steve Caron (Huxley)

Oh yeah, finally got to go on this cruise! The 3 hours flies by as you soak in the rays on the deck and listen to the occasional broadcast of ecological and historical facts. Good for families from anywhere in the world.

Bill Harner

We did the island adventure tour and the whole family thoroughly enjoyed it. I don't think my kids would have enjoyed the 2-4 hour cruises but this was perfect with a little sight seeing plus time on an island.

Gilles Smith

You must add this cruise to your list if you plan to be in Parry Sound. The 3 hour signature cruise is absolutely brillant! The tour is guided and narrated and the view is breathtaking.

Vee O

Beautiful ship and wonderful cruise. Come in the fall it's great

Liisa Kokko

It would been perfect but it rained.

John Barnes

I was surprised to find the staff doing very little to ensure that people would wear their masks.

Sherri mailloux

Really enjoyed the ride!! Very friendly staff and knowledgeable captain. We were lucky enough to catch a gentle man playing bag pipes on one of the islands!! I would go again

Paryse Giommi

The afternoon Island Queen Cruise was lovely. My boyfriend and I enjoyed it very much. The staff are just wonderful. The views are perfect and the boat is so smooth. Don't forget your sunscreen!

Kimber

Excellent experience. Beautiful well kept ship. Very clean , well run , great staff. Smooth sailing on Georgian Bay , breathtaking scenery. Relaxing , fun and great experience. I'd go again any day of the week !

Darrell Harnish

Probably the most enjoyable afternoon of the season, comfortable ride, not over pa ked even when full so you can move around and glorious views the whole way out and back! Definitely take my whole family next year

Brant Richardson

Nice relaxing cruise on a dreary and rainy day. Rain didnt dampen the experience

Dar Woodley

Calm scenic cruise. Great information on the islands. No kids jumping from the whole in the wall today I was hoping to see that. Oh well next time!

Adela Walker

Great boat trip with lots of info on history of area and points of interest along the way.

Robert Kokosin

Great cruise for seeing Perry Sound and surrounding areas.

Free Rider

This was an amazing experience, we had a great time very relaxing and very nice staff !! Thank you

Christopher Prokop

Very interesting cruise for nature lovers, more nature, less cottages. Relaxing and comfortable three hours of cruising among the 30,000 islands.

andre andre

It's very cold but you see some nice scenery on the cruise

Jodi Chapman-Good

As a surprise 75th Birthday to my dad we surprised him with a cruise to Henry's Fish and Chips aboard the Islander. My mother ended up being a little unwell (after a recent fall) at the time of the cruise and the care and concern that the staff took with her to ensure she was okay and cared for during the excursion was above and beyond. I am happy to say that all 11 of us ended up having a wonderful time (my mom was and is fine and she too enjoyed herself). The cruise is fabulous, the staff fun and knowledgeable and of course the food at Henry's was amazing! From the 75 year old to the six year old and all of us in between we had a great day! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Heather Morgan

Beautiful views, clean, well-maintained ship. Lovely option for a day trip!

DEAN BEATTIE

Totally worth the money. Great cruise and staff. They just need to warn about taking young kids to the front. Had NO idea how loud the horn was going to be.

Les Marozsan

Nice cruise. Good commentary about the history of the area.

Peter Charles Aspery

This is a really neat experience. People are very friendly. What food or drink will be offered seems to be inconsistent, so I would ask ahead, if like me a 3 hour tour required a drink or two. It's a bit steep, considering other experiences, but I really don't know how much it would cost to run a boat like that. Certainly worth trying once though. I feel sorry for the people trying to enjoy their cottage when the ferry tugs by and blasts its horn 2xday!

William Thuot

Very disappointed in there COVID 19 protection There was no social distancing in the common areas. People were not wearing masks. We called ahead and inquired about the practices in the place for covid as we are seniors and like to take precautions. We were told that they would be going around and wiping down surfaces every 20 minutes. We never saw a crew person in our area. People were asked to wear masks when going out side where social distancing was not possible. That was totally ignored. We now have to quarantinee for fourteen days because the cruise line does not take their passengers safety seriously. I recommend waiting till we get a vaccine before taking a cruise on that boat.

Janice Vincent

Beautiful day for the cruise in a zodiac boat through Georgian Bay's 30,000 islands. Fish lunch at Henry's on Frying Pan Island was tasty. Would recommend.

Rebecca Foresi

Beautiful and breath taking views Of Georgian Bay

Fenge Loo l

30000 islands you will not see any where else

Alexander Ivanov

We enjoyed the cruise and we recommend it to others.

John Gough

Lovely day on the water! $10 discount coupon in Killbear park paper was a bonus!

Jennifer Keech

Most amazing cruise!! Beautiful@ highly reccomend.

Tamara Collison

Always amazing no matter you take the cruise or just stop in to check it out. Love the car show every Tuesday as well

Amit Patel

This cruise for 3 hours and can visit 30000 island in georgebay lake.very nice exprience.Go with family.

Devon Witheridge

great time for the whole family, lots of good snacks, windy on the deck by comfy inside.

Greg

I feel like it is my civic duty to give this place the best review possible after I witnessed this man lose his innocence to this ice cream cone. I apologize to any innocent civilians who had the unfortunate experience of witnessing this.

Libby W

Went on the Huckleberry Island tour and really enjoyed it. The walk was about 30 minutes but that was only because we stopped frequently to listen to interesting facts/history about the island (likely about a 10 min walk if you didn't stop, a few steep short hills but otherwise a very easy walk, but NOT mobility-device friendly). Our tour guide, forget her name, was really engaging. It was clear she was excited about the topic and keen to share her knowledge with us. Would recommend this excursion to others.

Sharon Gerulath

Cliff jumping at Hole in the Wall when we got up close and personal with the Island Queen. She's part of our summer life!

Mark Wiskerke

This is a must to do. The big tour shows the magic of the 30.000 islands you cannot see from the shore. It is worth the money.

Parth Patel

Good experience, one of the bast things to do in Perry sound. The view of rotating bridge is mesmerizing. And the cruise too good.

Erika D

Clean, great historical information during the cruise about Georgian Bay.

Lorne Tingle

The cruise was lovely! The views were great and the info was very interesting. Staff were super nice and quick with getting your order done. If I had to nitpick I wish the speakers playing the audio for the outside decks were a bit louder but other wise fantastic!

Tim Reynolds

I first took this Cruise when I was a child of perhaps six or seven years old and I am taking the cruise many times throughout my life as I am now in my 50s. It's the largest freshwater boat cruise that text you through some of the most scenic and historic sites throughout the thirty thousand islands of the Georgian Bay! I would definitely recommend people go on this cruise at least once in their life.

Al Linton

This was our second trip on the Queen this year. Always a fun trip. The boat was full on this holiday Thanksgiving weekend. Beautiful scenery through the islands.

Maral SHOKRI-HARATI

We were on the Island Queen Cruise in Parry Sound on August 3, 2020. I needed to come here on this page and say thanks to everyone on this team. There was a young gentleman constantly sanitizing all frequently touched surfaces. Another gentleman was always walking around sharing facts and information with a smile and the friendliest attitude ever. He also made sure everyone is safe. The two ladies at the snack bar were super friendly and the more mature lady never stopped smiling. We also loved that we could bring aboard our own food and drinks even though there’s a bar and a snack shop. Thank you! ????????❤️

John Demianiuk

It was a good cruise around the islands. Very informative, too. Food was reasonably priced.

Nancy Misner

I went for the three hour cruise this afternoon and it was great! The boat is lovely and the tour was beautiful, well guided, price is very reasonable and the people who work on the Island Queen are friendly and efficient. Don't forget to layer up for when you go outside!

Fida Rana

This is excellent and recommended. A great way to see the bounty of nature. They got two trips 2 hours and 3 hours. I would recommend 2 hours for groups with kids. Only recommendation I have for the ship operator is to add more narrative to the route map. Am sure there is a lot more and rich history of these islands that the visitors would love to know.

Patrick Gamache

The staff was excellent. The boat ride was also exceptional would recommend it for sure

Donald Gill

A really nice, simple cruise on Georgian Bay. 3 hours. Beautiful!

Anna Good

We were up in Parry Sound had a visit with family did not go one the island Queen but next year might have a chance to take a trip on it. AG

Nasim Rahimi kh

It was good. But unfortunately, some families didn't care about wearing masks inside. Hope one day people take the pandemic seriously and follow the rules. I was nervous today and also surprised. I think people still don't get Covid 19 serious.

naupraptor

Great staff, friendly to chat with and beer!

Amanda Sharples

Awesome experience, so relaxing out on the water with beautiful scenery. A must try

Olver Briceno

Very good trip

Frazer Warren

A great way to spend an afternoon! Riding the boat through the islands on a sunny day was so enjoyable. Do it!

Allison Halterman

Such a nice, relaxing way to see the Georgian Bay and learn about the area.

Bill Ahmed

Me and my family loved this cruise, the staff was courteous and the cruise was superb, highly recommended!

A Y

We took the 3 hour Trip. It was nice. I had an issue with ticketing but the management took it seriously and it was resolved quickly.

Kanwal Pannu

Amazing time with Amazing crew. Worth every penny.

Milan “milanniki” niki

Beautiful experience 3 hour cruise 1 to 4 pm from 9 Bay Street parry sound Beautiful scenery and 30000 island description on ship narration Nice beer drinks and food on ship as well u can carry yr own food It was rainy day cruise ship follows all protocols 1 family per alternate seat bench Very convenient and safe Mask on deck washroom and entire cruise when away from yr seat

Cole Brillinger

Great sight seeing for tourists. If you've been to the lake before you wont see much more than you've already seen, but at least you can have a beer on the boat!

Ann McInnis

We enjoyed the scenery. Saw many beautiful homes etc. that we never would have seen from land.

Lenni Nickelo

The Island Queen cruise is always a delight, especially when you want to get away from it all, for a few hours, Peace and quiet, love it.

Claire Salac

Relaxing 2 hour cruise of Georgian Bay. Beautifully smooth ride & the narration is informative without being obnoxious.

Robert DJI - Pilot

Wicked crew with very friendly captain and crew. Tasty food and affordable drinks. Recommending for sure. Thank You guys...

Seemo gaming

Awesome they have bar bathroom great route they take you on. Boat pretty fast very good trip

Scott MacGregor

Great time. The crew and the ship are excellent. Police escort on route back to port.

Zelda “Sally” O'Connor

Excellent cruise. The captain and crew are friendly and knowledgeable. We thoroughly enjoyed our cruise of Georgian Bays 30,000 islands

Elizabeth Harden

Such a pleasant tour throughout the islands of Georgian Bay out of Parry Sound. I loved all the on board amenities including the patio on the 1st deck with all the sun umbrellas over bistro tables and cafe/restaurant, the bar on the 2nd deck, and the open air viewing deck on the 3rd level.

Jennifer Morris

Great views. Great customer service.

Shamiul Karim

3 hours trip through islands. you can enjoy fall color if you go just before thanksgiving.

Tammy K

Chilled, beautiful and fun stories explaining the area

Rick Moncauskas

Nice tour around Parry Island. 3 hours was a bit long. Maybe the 2 hour tour might be better. It's very pretty and a bit monotonous. But the 2 hour tour takes a northern route. The 3 hour tour goes south.

cassie frazer

We went on the 3-hour northern channel tour and it was so worth it. Beautiful scenery, very clean boat and friendly staff, good information about the area. What a great way to spend a summer afternoon!

Jonathan Ryeland

One of the best ways to check out the 30,000 islands Georgian Bay. Take a lovely cruise through some of the worlds best fresh water boating on the safe and comfortable Islands Queen.

CC White

An experience you will never forget!

Arthur Zubarev

Stunning views guaranteed!

ChristinaLH Photography

Best 3 hours spent on holidays so far! So many islands and wavy waters. History was told along the way. Saw osprey too and perhaps cormorants. Had hot dogs, great coffee and beer onboard because excitement builds hunger. Lol was also pizza and other snack foods. Lots of photos! Thanks!

Topher Ellis

We spend the day in Parry Sound and checked out the sights and the shops downtown. We ran into a couple who recommended this cruise so we drove down Bay street to check it out. It was a fun and relaxing trip. Staff was very friendly. Its very popular especially on a nice day. Definitely nice way to see the Parry Sound.

Amy Thompson

Cruise was great, beautiful scenary. Some of the passengers took away from the experience a little.

Agostinho Botelho

Second time on this cruise with the wife, except this time our daughter came along. With many islands to be seen, some with a cabin or a couple cottages on them...talk about isolation. Again the weather was perfect for such a cruise in this locations weather environment. I even met a new friend called spidie on this trip. The pre-recorded tour guide over the speakers explaining history of the area is a wonderful idea. The ice cream bought in the souvenir building is delicious...a must try.

Brian Reavely

So relaxing and less crowded with COVID and during the week

Chris McDonald

Excellent tour of Georgian bay

Avry J

Great trip, really nice to go around all the islands we have in Ontario. Recommend bringing a nice jacket if you want to enjoy the full day in the open air. The commentary on the boat is very informative concerning the islands and there history

Kelly Kerr

Beautiful! Great crew and very informative

Mark Phipps

Review of gift shop: Plenty of local swag, but prices were high. One teammate provided excellent customer service, the other was half asleep and not listening to me or other customers. Clean store. Sold ice cream.

Kory

Really enjoyed taking this cruise

Olumuyiwa Eleyinmi

Absolutely fantastic. Great insight and depth of historical insight.. 3 hours well spent!

Inspired Kitchen by Sharul Mathur

Great cruise and huge ship easy to keep your distance. Enjoyed it

S Middleton

This trail is dangerous for biking. The bridges have gaps which makes the trail unsuitable for road and hybrid tires. There are no signs advising of this hazard.

Jana Zamecnik

It was a three hour cruise full of beautiful views, good commentary. The boat was clean and comfortable with viewing areas under the skies, fully covered or just under roof.

Mike Wulkan

Nice relaxing ride around the bay, but I found the three hour cruise a bit long and I felt like I was done at two.

Aqif Hassen

Fantastic time, 3 hours flew by, great scenary. Some crew members were really friendly and nice!

Debbie

Lovely cruise!

Bharat Chhiller

Nice nice

AJ Morin

Great food, clean ship, and great staff to make a wonderful experience

Marcus Savage

Great if you want to learn some local history, also if you like geography. Gives you a sense of how vast Georgian Bay is. Nice views of the cottages and camps. Islands, islands and more islands. Definitely worth the money. Spend the whole day walking this harbor if you wanted too. Enjoy my days off down here. Definitely go again on this Cruise around Parry island.

Daniel Velicaru

Nice cruise around the islands, quiet and relaxing.

prashant

Best value for the money. Had a great outdoor adventure from the comfort of a steady and very stable ship with comfortable seats and breath taking views of the Georgian bay. Superb!

Shuvo Chowdhury

This is a great idea if you want a relaxing cruise around the beautiful 30,000 islands! The views are so pretty and the water so clean! The staff is courteous and the tours leave exactly on time and come back exactly on time. There are refreshments available for purchase on the boat but you can also bring your own picnic! It's a great day for the family and well worth the ticket price! Pro-tip: get some ice cream while you wait to get on the ship. The locally made ice cream is excellent and the serving sizes are enormous!

Navin Patel

Very nice

Victor Vasconcelos

Was very enjoyable relaxing for 3 hours see islands food and coffee prices are crazy there but they didnt show 30,000 islands as described i been counting tgem only saw 150 for price go there $50 person

john musicco

One of Ontario's best private boat cruises going , over 30,000 islands to see .Please check out there Web site for further details and schedules.

Artic Sky

Highly recommended, esp the 3 hour-cruise in the afternoon. Fantastic scenery and really decent commentary. Would love to come back for the Fall colour cruise

Ruth Croft

The 30,000.00 Island cruise in Port Perry was absolutely breath taking. So peaceful and beautiful.

Dr. Ratna Chaudhary

Parry sound is s paradise for colour watching. About 3 hours away from Toronto. The tickets for this cruise are reasonable so decided to take this cruise. Was just in luck to get them on the very last day if the season.Happy that will be cruising the Georgian bay for 3 hours on Thanksgiving afternoon.But. As you can see from pics, the 30000 islands were cruised from an outer route. All we saw was expanses of water and Evergreen trees. It appeared like a Summer cruise instead of Fall colours cruise. What a waste. So disappointed. Read carefully as you book.

Tolu Nelly

Great activity to observe and appreciate the history and beautiful environment of Georgian bay

Timothy Bloedow

Loved our cruise. Very peaceful. Beautiful weather. Educational.

Barb Anderson

I was at the water front enjoying the view. Island Queen doesn't run at this time of the year. But, I have taken the cruise several times over the years and always really enjoy it every time.

J. Birtch

Lovely cruise. Two hours is too long for little children.

Anthony DeCesare

The staff could be more attentive to those sitting on rails, standing on seats and generally being very unsafe. Found it made us very nervous as other patrons had to speak up as staff was no where to be found . Otherwise the cruise was nice.

Steve Crouse

Did 3 hr cruise great day lots to see lots of info on history of the area very picturesque.

Amy Kicklighter

The afternoon cruise is nice but long. It takes you around all of Parry Island.

Lori Peesker

Really enjoyed our cruise yesterday. Very interesting tour and also educational.

Paul D Kingshott

Always a nice relaxing cruise

Holly mcclaskin

It was a relaxing afternoon and very informative

Brenda Crowder

This was overbooked for compliance with COVID19 policies. There was no mask wearing for 45 minutes (indoors) until the captain finally made an announcement. There were not enough seats for rain conditions. Ultimately, we got off the boat before sailing due to the unsafe conditions. We would not recommend it until safety precautions and sufficient seating are in place.

Scott McAteer

Great cruise. Crew were nice and helpful. Great scenery.

Rick Kerr

The Island Queen V , is the best ever. Nothing can beat the 2 hour or 3 hour cruise. The 30,000 Island Cruise Line is the very best ever

A W

Clean ship, good staff. Great job island cruise.

Rohan Akmeemana

Parry Sound area has a wonderful ambiance A very calming effect on you

Kirby Freeman

Stopped in for some ice cream. Good selection of flavors and very generous servings! Staff members both did their job, but didn't particularly seem to be enjoying themselves. Also nice to be able to go out and sit in the grass with the kids or walk out on the town dock to eat it. Will definitely stop by for ice cream again, primarily for the serving size.

Jerry Kempel

Great 3 hr cruise. One of the best through the islands.

We took the afternoon three hour cruise. We started on the gift shop. The prices were high but the quality did seem good. We felt that the best part of the gift shop was the ice cream bar. Humungous serving of tasty ice cream. Then onto the ship. The interior was clean and modern. We had our ice-cream so we didn't sample anything from the snack bar. The pizza did smell good though. We spent the entire three hours out on the deck watching the amazing scenery go by. Georgian Bay is rich with history and gorgeous sights. During the cruise there were commentaries about the sights as we passed by. Finally although it isnt really part of the cruise, I was amazed at the captain's skills as he navigated some incredibly tricky maneuvers. Finally if you go bring a jacket and a camera. The wind can be chilly.

Lovely tour of 30000 islands. Amazing crew and staff. Rugged beauty, wonderful Canadian scenery. Worth the trip. Thank you. We love visiting Parry Sound.

Wendy Thomas

Amazing day and a great crew Wonderful experience Great covid measures A must trip

Worth 2 Share

Taking 3 hrs tour, seems too much and soon you get tired doing nothing but sitting here and there or sleeping. Bring your own food if you eat healthy ! It was a clean and well maintained ship. I didn't see much fall colors as I expected. Overall was a good trip and enjoyed it.

Angie Terrell

Beautiful scenery. Would have been just as happy with the shorter tour for less money

Spike Moody

What a great experience...views were absolutely stunning....highly recommended

Stefanie Naumann

Great cruise, amazing landscape to see, food could be a bit better.

Tammy Love

Amazing tours all summer long...we are planning our next tour for Summer 2022

The 3 hour 30,000 island cruise was amazing. Rain or shine the Island Queen Cruise ventures into the Georgian Bay Biosphere. The 3 hour cruise is in the afternoon. You travel around the outer islands. Some of the sights you get to see are the Hole in the Wall, Killbear Provincial Park, Rose Point Swing Bridge and the 5 Mile Narrows Osprey Nest that gets used every year. There are 3 levels. With Indoor and Outdoor seating and great observation decks/windows. There is food and drinks as well that you can buy during the trip. My mother and I were on the top deck in the pouring rain, no one else around except the captain. On one of the islands we got to see a black mama bear and her cub. Very close. It was perfect. Would do again again. Next time i will do the morning cruise.

Steve Matheson

Very nice cruise, made an announcement to wear masks, but no one enforced it. Many people walking around for 3 hours, and no masks!

Diana Robinson

Awesome 3 hours

D Elad

Great place for one day picnic, amazing views

Jagbir Phogat

Very nice and scenic 3 hour cruise. The Island Queen was very clean and all staff was very courteous and professional. All three level sitting was fabulous. Strongly recommended.

A Palande

Did not get to see the town itself. Reach just in time after our stay at wasaba beach. It was quite a nice drive. The cruise itself was nice going through different parts of the very clean lake. Wished had extra time to spend in town to take trails. Left for Ottawa after cruise. Next visit might visit some camp sites in the area.

Mr. & Mrs A

loved it! they are following covid safety protocols. Have closed every other seat on the boat and give you sanitizer when entering and leaving. online booking system was effortless and they had our tickets already printed organized by last name. loved the system the information while on the cruise was lovely and pointed to key lookouts. snacks on board were affordable and good variety due to covid they operate at half capacity and it was quite lovely and we thoroughly enjoyed the 3 hour afternoon cruise.

Scott Johnston

Big boat smooth ride

P C

Very nice experience. Better if you go on July- Augusto, because is warmer. It's a three hours trip in ferry.

Island Queen Cruise was recommended by family as a beautiful lake tour of the 30,000 island. They were spot on. We booked the 2 hour morning cruise and it was perfect. Youre taken on a beautiful tour of the waterways around Parry Sound. Picturesque scenery at every turn, and information from the guides that did not distract from the tranquility of the cruise. Would highly recommend.

Amit Brahme

The huckleberry island cruise was awesome. The beach was great, the captain and guides were very helpful. The island is beautiful.

Rich Bloomfield

So much fun and very beautiful

Karen Austin

Loved the 3-hour Cruise.

Flore Tatiane Kamdems

Wonderful day!! For me, it has to be in the tourist "to do list" in Ontario.

Michelle

The Island Queen is as always an amazing journey through the waterways of the Parry Sound area. 30,000 Islands are so beautiful to behold. Reasonably priced and runs rain or shine. There are indoor and outdoor seating. As for Covid, protocols all are in place but not adhered to strictly. The seats in the closed decks were ropped off which was good but the masks were not enforced. They did tell people to wear a mask when walking around but many didn't bother and they weren't told to. That was disappointing as it was a less than a safe atmosphere. However, we police ourselves and keep ourselves safe. Definately a pleasure to behold our little part of Canada ????????!

Jill Harris

The cruise was awesome. It took you to a place that few people get to see unless you own property on beautiful Geirgian Bay

seen meataku

Too crowded. Not enough seats. Audio system too soft. Dangerous ramp to board. Not enough washrooms. Nice and clean. Nice scenery.

Julian Cutajar

Great trip for anyone looking for something to do while in Parry Sound. The fact that you can bring your own food and drink is a great way to save some money and be sure you have what you want.

Steve Blainey (Sebe)

Went on the three hour cruise it was good but could have been a little shorter. The two hour cruise leaves at 10am, maybe long enough. Three hour leaves at 1pm

Thomas Drennan

Super cruise liked the commentary .would recommend it to everyone. Thanks... Would do it again

Muhammad Imran Ghaffar

Nice ????????

Brandi Gordon

What an amazing experience! We did the Henry's tour, our captains Lauren and Archie were fantastic. Archie was very informative and taught us alot. All of the staff were wonderful to deal with and very helpful and accommodating.

Anthony Borges

Love the 3 hour cruise very interesting tour ????

Monique Welton

Loved the cruise but was very surprised that the information announcement were only in English. Ontario/Canada are bilingual no?

Garry Allen

Great cruise but hard to board in a power wheelchair.

Monica Sleegers

The cruise was awesome! We had a great time on board and the staff were amazing! Will definitely recommend this attraction.

Douglas Anderson

My wife and I went on the Islander X to Henry's for lunch. This is a great trip it feels more like a ride on a locals boat as opposed to the cruise atmosphere of the Island Queen. The crew were excellent at helping passengers on and off the craft and pointed out local landmarks. The lunch at Henry's was very nice. Generous portions of fish, good fries and beans with coleslaw. Great time was had by all.

Aysha Malik

Pleasant cruise. ????

Patricia Bickford

A very nice ride on Georgian Bay. Took the 3 hour rour. Great for adults and older children might be too long for young children.

Jamie Reaume

Hot, but beautiful day on the tip deck. What am experience. Should not be missed if you get the chance. Go early. Seats fill up quick.

Sara J

What a very nice, scenic and relaxing cruise. I chose to go on the 3 hour cruise, which I enjoyed and it cost $42 for an adult ticket. The boat has 3 levels and provided good commentary on the history of the area and points of interest. I also liked the fact that you on bring your own snacks in a soft cooler. They also have food on board you can purchase like pizza, hot dogs, popsicles and drinks etc...

Conrad chen

Very nice trip. The staffs are friendly and responsible.

Denise Diltz

LOVED this 3 hour boat cruise! It was very relaxing and SO scenic!

Wendy Watkinson

Food & drink on the ship plus bathrooms and seating areas inside and out. Went for the 1 hour cruise and enjoyed it with my family.

Leanne G

Lovely tour of the area.

Katrina Nunn

Enjoyable experience for the 3-hour day cruise. Helpful and friendly staff and proper covid precautions on board.

Karen Nelson

Love it, every time I go. The weather today was awful, lol. Such beautiful country side. The Island Queen is awesome! Thanks so much again...see you soon!

Nora Borbon

All aboard the Island Queen! What a boat ride to view beautiful cottages on some of the 30,000 Georgian Bay Islands. We took the 3 hour (1 to 4pm) non stop cruise on a sunny Friday afternoon. The tour offered snacks and drinks for purchase on board in case you were hungry and thirsty:). Find yourself near Parry Sound ON? Go on and hop aboard it's worth it!

Ida-Mae Roberts

Wonderful trio. Pleasant crew. Great food to purchase. If your in Parry Sound don't pass this up.

Sharon Mosher

It was the most relaxing trip we have had in a long time.A very informative excursion that we will always remember.

An amazing experience. The view is beautiful, and they served beer and food on the ship. A relaxing 3 hour trip.

Gina Chapman

Great day on the water

Valerie J. Tingey

Great way to experience the islands and learn all about the history of the area. Reasonably priced, coffee and drink cafe on board. Open air or closed cabin seating. Had a great afternoon on the water.

Sandra Berube

A great experience, and fun ride.

Francesca Mendez Barcelo

A perfect way to spend a hot day. Beautiful scenery along the route.

Rohit Patel

We enjoyed the cruise, well manged under covid restrictions. I recommend this cruise.

Island Queen Cruise is a beautiful tourist destination. There are 2 routes that only happen in morning and afternoon. In the morning, it's 2 hours route, it'll take you to north east around the island. In the afternoon, it's 3 hours route, it'll take you to south east, very long and relaxing. Inside, you can buy drinks and foods. Captain of the island Queen is very knowledge and share the great experience! People will naturally wave at you. So wave them back!

Bonnie Rayfield

We did the trip to Wreck Island yesterday. What an awesome trip !! The boat ride thru the 30,000 island is outstanding and the crew are great to inform you of the headlights of the area as you pass. The best part of the trip was the hike over Wreck Island. Such beautiful rock formations and views, again with the guided information done excellently. Highly recommend this for an outstanding day trip !

Derek Marks

Had a great experience! Weather was perfect.

Sandra Bennett

M&M Neophytou

Amazing time for the family. Learning about Parry Sounds history. I highly recommend the 2hr morning tour.

Michael Francone

A very enjoyable cruise for 3 hours around the bay. Covid19 protocols in place.

Ken Silvester

My girlfriend has travelled the world with her late husband but had never experienced Georgian Bay. The Island Queen cruise “blew her mind”. She was thrilled with the scenery & the commentary & the comfort of the ship. A thousand photos (half of which went to Facebook) & she can’t wait until next summer to do it again (we sailed in early October).

Cheryl Whitehead

Wonderful scenery plenty of parking food and washrooms on board and lots of viewing deck

lilach eyal

Nice cruise. But I much prefered the 1,000 island cruise near Kingston, ON, which is much more impressive and a lot more fun.

Elizabeth Acchione

We have been on this cruise in the past. an awesome value for the money. We are planning to go back this year.

Valerie Fox

A nice change of pace from driving all over Ontario.

Amarjit Matharu

Great 3 hours tour on Island Queen Cruise with only $50. Nice parking lot to park your car free, Clean Cruise, nice & clean washrooms, good seating capacity, great on-board food / Coffee to buy with cheap price. Good co-operative staff.

Amin Lalani

We had an excellent tour on a sunny day. Worth spending your weekend.

Gabriela Dudas

It was a lovely day for a sunset cruise thanks to Shirleen of the AllPointsnorth group.

Richard Berard

Great Cruise people were very nice and get there early top seats are full 40 minutes before it leaves

Eric Anderson

The Island Queen has been a staple in our cottage community for years & is the best way to see this area of the 30,000 Islands. If you are local or a visitor seeing the Captain & crew pilot the Queen through the small channels is amazing. When in the area, do not hesitate to book a tour.

James Heaslip

Simple. No real tour, just a boat ride.

Tracy Porter

This was a lovely cruise. We sat up top and enjoyed the beautiful scenery. The number of islands was amazing. Staff was courteous. I would highly recommend this trip.

murtaza patanwala

Excellent one day excursion spot from Toronto. The waubuno beach is good for one day picnic along with the cruise. Found the cruise little long but definitely worth the ticket price.

Jess I

Unfortunately we couldn't fit a cruise into our schedule because of the cruise times, but we did enjoy the ice cream here. Generous portions and a fantastic selection of delicious Kawartha ice cream.

Lucrezia Thompson

We took the 3 hour cruise. A lovely relaxing way to spend an afternoon. Commentary throughout with history etc.

Claude Briere

This was a great 3 hour boat cruise through Georgian Bay. The boat was very good, the weather was great and the scenery/ view was amazing. We sat or stood on the top deck and took a lot of pictures. I would recommend this boat cruise to everybody.

trevor frettsome

Another Parry Sound gem. All cruises are spectacular. All crew are very courteous and friendly. Reasonably priced. Great for all ages. Highly recommended.

Judy Lipnicky

Took the 30000 island cruise.

Suzanne Ryan

The boat ride and staff was excellent. Soo many islands, so much to look at. The fish at Henrys Restaurant on Frying Pan Island was amazing. The servings were HUGE. Highly recommend this tour.

Drew Lichtenheldt

Excellent experience, super clean amazing boat and very friendly staff. Best way to see Georgian Bay

Jan Burgess

Good cruise, lots of running commentary with some breaks. We took the two hour tour - they also have a three hour tour which has a little different route. They have some light refreshments you can buy on the cruise and some munchies. I didn't take pictures of the ship, but of some of the scenery - attqcheď.

Christina Toner

Had a great time, even in little bits of drizzle. Definitely be back

Steve Lord
