  • A Private Cruise with Twisted Tiki Cruises gives your group exclusive use of our tiki boat for 90 minutes. You’ll have a licensed captain and a crew member onboard to help your event go smoothly.

    You're welcome to bring your own food, drinks, decorations, and music playlist to make the cruise your own. Our crew is happy to help carry items down to the dock before your trip begins. There’s only about 30 minutes between cruises for setup and cleanup, so we recommend keeping things simple and easy to manage. We also have soft drinks and pre-packaged snacks available for purchase on board. If you're looking for something more, Dockside Brewery is a super convenient option for grabbing a few snack plates or platters before you board.

    There is also a bathroom onboard for your group’s comfort during the cruise!

    A few things to keep in mind for private cruises:

    • Ice: We do not provide ice, so please bring your own if needed.

    • Cups, plates, utensils, napkins, etc.: These are not stocked onboard, so we recommend bringing what you’ll need. Reusable items are always a great way to cut down on waste!

    • Decorations: Feel free to bring décor that can be tied down or weighted — just nothing that blocks the Captain’s view. Please no loose balloons, streamers, or confetti. Keeping the River clean is a top priority!

  • Yes! We strongly encourage you to order your drinks & apps from Dockside’s bar before boarding. You may also bring your own food.

    Soft drinks and packaged snacks are available for purchase on board.
