Winter Park boat tours

Anyone been on the Winter Park boat tour and was it any good?

[truesdpr]

Yes - we did it last trip. It was lovely - lasts about an hour and goes thorugh some of the canals and into the lakes. Not a great deal to see - some big houses and Rollins College but a pleasant way to spend an hour. We went about noon and then had a nice lunch in Panullo's on Park Avenue. It was lovely!

Thanks Pam, tried to find it last May 05, may try again in Oct, I'm determined to go on it, read about it in my guide book.

We went on it last January. We got good weather which helped :grin:
The guide talks you through the history of the lakes/canals and points out the houses and who lives in some of them....very nice houses they were too. We paid to have the boat to ourselves rather than share it with others and this was still pretty reasonable.
We then went for a meal at Brios nearby .... that was scrummy :thumbs-up

We went last year in May and really enjoyed it. The houses were really nice and it was a good way to spend a morning! We fell upon it by accident - though we were trying to find it!!

I did this in 1988 on my first trip to Orlando. You have brought memories flooding back :spin:

It was a lovely day. The houses were fabulous. We were told who owned some of them. (Can't remember now sorry! :o: )

Also did Dave and Vince's ski school. Fantastic afternoon. Don't even know if it is still there now, but I have spotted Dave's ski school on Mapman's map, so I assume he got rid of Vince! :d:
