What People Are Saying About Seattle Fremont Avenue Ferry Service
Featured Review
Contributor
Contributor
The Experience – Captain Larry Kezner's boat, the Fremont Avenue, cruises the lake 12 times every Sunday, giving passengers a little time on the water along with a little history. Sneak a peek at the work of Northwest glass artist Dale Chihuly, see the now famous Sleepless in Seattle houseboat and get a close up view of the Kalakala, a streamlined Seattle ferry that shuttled passengers across the sound from 1935 to 1967. Kezner's mix of Seattle history along with off-beat humor provides an entertaining journey that comes to an end after 45 minutes--a length that feels just right.…
Editor's Tips
- Where to Sit:
- Sit on the right (starboard) side of the boat for the best views of the Lake's attractions.
- The Extras:
- After the boat is under way, you can sit in the pilot's cabin for an up-close look at the helm.
- Know Before You Go:
- Once the boat is under-way it will feel as though the temperature has dropped 10 degrees--dress appropriately.

Great Party Rental
by KaseyG at Citysearch
My friend rented the boat for her husband’s 30th birthday party. We turned it into a ghost ship! It was so much fun! It was a three hour cruise around Lake Union and Washington. We were able to bring our own decorations, adult beverages and food. We had around 30 people and had plenty of room to move around. If you want to try something different for your party you should call!
- Pros: Private cruise around the lakes

about the ice cream
by UCLARah at Citysearch
whoever heard of a chocolate root beer float? It's VANILLA ice cream!! when I asked the captain why he doesn't offer both vanilla and chocolate he said.." I'm the captain, it's my boat. I like chocolate, we only serve chocolate." Chocolate root beer floats taste awful... my opinion.
- Pros: sweets are a treat
- Cons: chocolate is not for a root beer float
