Nice cruise but not for insights

A little disappointing.

We had booked Le Bateau Mouche cruise in order to see more of the city and learn about it but felt this cruise didn't really do either. Understandably, there is only a small portion of the city that can be seen from the river but felt there were only a few sights that were pointed out which was disappointing. It was also quite difficult to hear the commentary on board when passing the sights. However, the drinks and snacks menu was extensive making it a more enjoyable experience and allowing the opportunity to take in a different view of the city. The staff as well were lovely and very attentive. If visiting Montreal again, I'd give this cruise a miss unfortunately as there were better ways to see the main sights.
Never again racist wait staff

Being only 2 black people boat and then going downstairs to the drink and food room and being overlooked. Every white person in that room was asked and served a drink except for me and my mother. Finally my mother went over and asked why no one came over to us. There were at least 3 wait staff workinf the room. Finally some came over and of course we did t order a think. No thanks for making my memorable vacation hurtful . Will not recommend and will not take this boat again. It was quite clear to us.

Cruise needs quite some Improvements

It was +34 Celcius, that day. The AC was on but not strong enough, people inside were sweating like hell.
Please turn on the AC higher on the hottest days. As well, the service can be better: Granting people a fresh bottle of water should be included, it is not that expensive to do. That is the peak of Customer Service: show your clients they mean something to you, without them there will be no Bateau-Mouche Sightseeing Cruise.
I like the fact to be on a boat that's why I give a 4 Stars, I Love boats. Unfortunately they go through some routes twice to make the 90 minutes cruise. Add more points of view for the routes, and please don't go twice in the same place of view. You actually deserve a 3 Stars or 2.
Response from Host , Sep 2021
Hello Patrice,
Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback.
It is a disappointment to learn that you didn’t enjoy your cruise at its fullest. We are deeply sorry about the discomfort you felt and we will be making sure that this situation doesn't repeat itself.
As for the cruise route, we believe that we offer the most interesting itinerary for cruises in Montreal as the design of the Bateau-Mouche allows us to go to places where other boats cannot explore. Per example, we are able to navigate the current behind the Le Havre jetty and observe Habitat 67, the island Notre-Dame, the Casino and 3 bridges in this region.
If you wish to discuss any other issues, feel free to contact us at 514 849-9952.
It would be our pleasure to see you again on board.

Montreal - Boat Cruise

The journey was dull as there was not much to see in the route, it should be scenic and or interesting, and also there was no commentary at all to know what we are seeing or passing by, hope some better route is taken.
Response from Host , Jul 2021
We appreciate that you take the time to give us feedback from your experience. The 90 minutes cruise is a beautiful getaway on the St. Lawrence River; We are sorry that you did not enjoy the itinerary. Can you tell us on which date you did the cruise in order for us to proceed with proper verifications.
Sincerely,
The Bateau-Mouche team.

How not to hamdle customer
Daniel_P
, Jul 2021
Bought the ticket, there was no specific time on it only the day. So basically it was suppose to be throughout the day. So went during the afternoon at 16h and was told there was no more sightseeing cruise available for the day. Only supper on the cruise. Spend 45 min waiting next to the booth to talk to the manager and there is nothing he can do. Spend another 15 min on the phone with customer service of viator to be told they will get back with a possible refund once they iron it out with the local cruise. So basically wasted 1h for nothing. Good luck with the services.
Response from Host , Jul 2021
Good morning,
We thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that this happened and be assured that we contacted Viator to correct this as there is alway supposed to have a date and departure time on each ticket otherwise we cannot guarantee the availability. Also, during Covid we have a reduced capacity aboard to ensure everyone safety.
Have a beautiful day,
The Bateau-Mouche team
Wonderful experience

Pleasant ride on the river. Info from tour guide PAsystem was disappointingly superficial made worse by the loud passengers all around us who seemed to be on board for a booze cruise. Individual earphone sets linked to a well-researched and scripted explanatory talk would have been appreciated.

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
