First time in FLL for a family trip and we knew we had to do a boat tour! This was an amazing, well organized boat tour that was audio guided. Took us about 1.5 hours to complete it and it was nice they had a little bar upstairs as well for drinks and snacks. Thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend.

I rated a 3 because when I arrived I had to repurchase my tickets, wasting $44 that I paid online. I purchased tickets for Saturday, I called the same day and was told I could come the next if I wanted to since the tickets doesn't expire until Sunday. I showed up Sunday and was rudely told by a girl there, I needed to call the third party company to reschedule and they currently had no reservation for us. The girl I spoke to over the phone didn't mention any of this. The rude girl says its on the purchase details, but I didnt see it. The girl I spoke to over the phone didn't say anything about this or else I would have called the third party to reschedule. I drove over 3 hours to be told this to spend another $40+ to get on the boat. Nevertheless, the boat experience was good.

Wow! We had such a great time. The tour guide was hilarious and had so much knowledge about the homes and taught on the water. When we arrived at the island we were pleasantly surprised with just how beautiful it was. Felt as if we were on a tropical island. Dinner was good. The ribs and fries were amazing. The chicken was bland as heck but the server was so amazing it didn't matter. Then we watched the variety show. Was so fun and interactive. Juggling, comedy and a Polynesian for dance. It was so fun! My friend and I were even brought on stage to dance with the dancers. We moved our hips for the gods! We had the best time on this trip. I would definitely recommend and can't wait to do it again when we return.

Whenever family or friends visit south Florida the jungle queen is a must. 87 years in service , always fun and interesting. This year we went for New Years, given it's outdoors. First time for me on New Years and so much fun. Everyone on board was out to have fun and all the waterfront parties on our trip made it especially fun to pass by . The dinner buffet of ribs and chicken was fantastic as always. Best ribs in the area if you like " fall off the bone" . The do a show after dinner with a few acts to satisfy all the groups there then back on the boat returning to the starting point . They timed it perfect to be positioned in the main waterway at midnight so we can see all the fireworks . They did a perfect job on this New Years adventure.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Questions & Answers

We have taken the dinner cruise and show twice. Last year and the year before. The show was the same both years and we would love to do it again this year but are wondering if the show has changed or is still the same?

Janet Hillier | Aug 21, 2020
Jungle Queen Riverboat | Aug 21, 2020

We have 13 different acts that rotate based on their personal availability. I am sorry that you got the same show twice. You can ask when you make your reservation who the acts are on a given night.

the sightseeing trip is it 90 minutes each way

raymond perrone | Aug 22, 2018
Jungle Queen Riverboat | Aug 21, 2020

It depends which trip you take. We have a 90 minute cruise that takes you up the New River into downtown and then into Port Everglades before returning to the dock. We have a 3 hour tour that takes you to our tropical isle for a visit to our small zoo and alligator wrestling along with an opportunity to hold a baby gator and beautiful birds. Lastly, and most famously, we have our 4 hour Dinner and show cruise. You take a 45-60 cruise to our tropical isle where you will get off the boat and enjoy our lush landscaping and enjoy an All you Can Eat barbecue dinner of Baby Back Ribs, Chicken and Shrimp along with all the fixings. After dinner you will go to our outdoor ampitheatre ( weather permitting) and enjoy America's longest running variety show before a peaceful trip back down the New River. ENJOY

Irfan Jaffery | Aug 22, 2019

It depends on the age of the children. In my opinion, it is good for teens on up. Young children won't get much out of adventure.

Yes, leaves at 6 sharp. However I saw or heard nothing about being there 45 minutes early. We got there 30 minutes early but the large majority at least when I went got there about 20 mind before hand. Maybe 45 minutes if you want to make sure you're not late but I didn't see anything where they want you there that early. They were letting people on board with tickets up til almost the last minute.
