Last month while in Key Largo we decide to take the African Queen cruise because it is my favorite old movie. We had a great time. Our Captain knew so much about the history of the boat and the pictures from the movie were really neat. Both my husband and I got to take over the rudder for a while.... More

How great to know someone cared enough to restore the African Queen boat. It's in great shape and they do a good job of telling the history of the boat and keeping the magic alive. There are even photos from the movie and a guest book for all to sign. It's a slow ride down the canal into the Atlantic,... More

The attraction here is obviously the boat. It is the real deal and the first 10 - 15 minutes of the trip are spent telling you about the history of the boat and how it got to be in Key Largo. It is so authentic our trip was delayed about 15 minutes while repairs were made to the steam engine... More

A thrill to be on the water in one of the great vessels of movie history. The captain and reservationist are terrific people and the pre-sail stories of the boat are fun. I do wish the trip was a little more varied and the captain kept the stories going. But that is a minor detail in the overall experience. Any... More

Nice boat ride and you can bring your own food and drinks. Fun at the helm, steering the African Queen down the canal towards the Atlantic Ocean. The history of the boat was nice but imagine being on the same boat where Bogie and Katherine played their famous roles. Looking at the boat you could imagine how they said their... More

I was a little skeptical of how interesting this would be but from the initial contact with the ticket seller to the end of the cruise it was a great experience. You don't have to be a fan of the movie The African Queen to enjoy this trip. The skipper dresses the part (Bogart) and gives a full history of... More

If you love the movie you must take this wonderful cruise. The original African Queen has been rebuilt in the original form and you can take a cruise. I got to pilot the boat for about 15 minutes and have lots of photos and videos. The captain has a album of original photos from the movie shoot and how they... More

I couldn't wait to do this trip - in fact, we booked in the UK to ensure a seat and stayed at the Holiday Inn adjacent to the African Queen berth. It was worth the wait. We were very lucky to be the only two aboard, (maximum 6 people allowed) with Captain Wayne at the helm. He was very informative... More

Although the 4 of us chose not to do the $49 canal cruise, we were able to get up close and personal for pics of the African Queen. She is definitely an old beauty with her working steam engine and nostalgic striped canopy. There are Bogart pictures and history on the landing pier near her berth. A free must see... More
