Sunscreen, a sweater if it's cool because the boat is open, maybe a playlist. But please no food, drink, coolers, large tote bags. We have a liquor license and due to NYS Liquor Authority guidelines, all beverages must be purchased from Syracuse Boat Tours. We have to enforce this policy and failure to comply will result in a return to the dock. :(
We depart from a sweet spot on the Seneca River named Dutchman’s Landing Dock, just three miles west of Liverpool, 7439 Hillside Road, Baldwinsville, NY. There's plenty of parking!
No please! We have a cash/credit bar on board to serve soda, water, beer, wine, summer specialty cocktails like Mai Tais, Margaritas (and mock), Pina Coladas, and Fall cider concoctions. We also have snacks, and individual charcuterie boards. Our liquor license prohibits us from allowing you to bring beverages aboard. You can order sandwiches in advance (Big Boat BLT, Club sandwich, or Chicken Wrap). Call or text to (315) 516-4719
If it's a light rain, we cruise. We will offer you a raincheck or refund if we can’t depart due to severe weather conditions. Tickets non-refundable and we reserve the right to reschedule a tour due to weather issues. (Sorry, no refunds for no-show, or late guest arrivals.)
We have a Personal Flotation Device (PFD) for every passenger and crew, and all the safety equipment (and more) required by the US Coast Guard. Our boat holds a current Coast Guard Inspection (COI) and was recently inspected for this area. If you are bringing more than 10 children contact us, to ensure we have the proper size PFDs for your little ones.
Yup! There's a small, marine commode is onboard , and a more comfortable port-a-john is at the dock.
It depends on the tour you choose – they can run from one hour to 90 minutes, or you can charter the boat for a longer cruise. Just contact us with what you want and we’ll work it out with you.
