Our guide and Captain, Nate, was knowledgeable, competent, and accommodating with our large group of retirees. The cruise was lovely--we lucked into one of the finest days of autumn--and everyone learned some fun tidbits about Lake Placid.

Excellent and interesting tour. The boat captain's narration showed great knowledge of homes along the shore. Ride was smooth and fairly quiet.

Not what is use to be. We take this tour every summer and always enjoy it. It’s a nice way to get out on the lake. Price has jumped to $25 pp. Our tour guide Tim should educate himself better before giving a tour. Much of what he said was completely inaccurate. Plus our route was shortened despite the second tour boat going the usually route past Kate Smith camp and Lake Placid Lodge. Huge disappointment this year and over priced.

Wonderful way to spend part of the afternoon in Lake Placid. Our tour guide John was great and did a good job informing us about the history of Lake Placid. I get sea sick, but the pace of the ride and the water wasn’t bad at all. The day was beautiful and the tour lasted a little over an hour. There is parking available around the corner (it’s labeled Boat Cruise Parking). There are also bathrooms (which are decent).

My family and I had a wonderful time on our boat tour. The weather was great and our tour guide John was funny and had a great personality. He was very informative and professional. Definitely recommend to see Lake Placid and tour the lake...

Great tour of the lake. Captain Tim was great. The lake had really neat house and boat houses.

Absolutely worth it, the Captains thoroughly enjoy what they do and make sure everyone has a great experience. MUST bring a sweater and pants, everyone on the boat was freezing and this was mid August

Open but covered boat tour of Lake Placid. Many people think the lake in downtown Lake Placid is Lake Placid, it is not, it is Miirror Lake. Lake Placid is a very large lake near Mirror Lake. It is not easily accessible, only one public boat launch. With that background the tour was great. As I said unless have your own boat this is the only way to really experience the lake. The lake is large over 2mi long. The boat tour circumnavigates the whole lake and takes about an hour. This is a guided tour, talking about the history of the lake and the region. One of the main draws is viewing the "camps" built along the shore. Most are actually multi million dollar mansions. Interesting to see how the upper Uber rich live. Our Guide/Captain Tom did a great job! Highly recommend this tour. Remember to bring some cash to tip the Captain you will want to. Cheers!

Very informative of the areas history past and current, also some of the most beautiful (camps) as they are called by the locals although they are actually multi-million$$$ mansions. All in all quite the experience for 25$ per adult on an hour ride. Photo below of fiance and I at the end of the dock.

Good experience. Gorgeous views of Lake Placid and its islands. Our experience was marred by another family with completely out of control kids who were incredibly loud and detracted from the experience by drowning out the narration from the boat captain and running around rather dangerously on the boat in spite of requests from the captain to remain seated. Nevertheless an enjoyable trip with gorgeous gorgeous views and reasonably priced to boot... might go again in future
