  • 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, you’re welcome to bring your own alcohol onboard your cruise (21+)!

    IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: In accordance with Dockside’s liquor license, you must arrive with your alcohol in sealed, closed containers.

    Open containers are not permitted on the Dockside premises before or after your cruise.

    Security reserves the right to ask you to leave the premises and you will miss your cruise.

    Please help us respect our host venue and keep the good vibes going!

    We reserve the right to cut off any passengers from alcoholic beverages for safety.

  • All Twisted Tiki Cruises are BYOB and BYOF—so feel free to bring your favorite beverages (alcoholic or non-alcoholic) and snacks or small bites to enjoy during the cruise!

    We recommend:

    • Small coolers or bags—space is limited, so pack light

    • Paper goods, napkins, and any utensils you may need.

    We reserve the right to cut off any passengers from alcholic beverages for safety.
