This is a great way to take in some of the history of Cleveland. I remember riding this as a kid and enjoying them honking to get the bridges to lift. It's kind of neat to go under a lift bridge and see the traffic stopped for us as we go by. I also appreciate the narrated tour. There's a lot to take in.

The second half of the tour is very relaxed as you just enjoy being on the boat while it goes back up the river and then makes a big turn around in the lake. We went on the Friday of the Air Show weekend, so we also got a little bonus show watching the Thunderbirds practice. But even without that it would be a great time.
