I participated in a Nautiste birthday party celebration cruise and it was incredible, one of my most memorable experiences in countless years. The host, Captain, crew, and chef were all fantastic. The food we were served was amazingly delicious. We happened to be blessed with a beautiful day of weather and that was a big enhancement to the overall delightful experience.

We previously booked Nautiste for our daughter's prom and graduation and she and her boyfriend had an amazing experience. Because of that experience, we recently had Nautiste help us celebrate my parent's 95th and 90th birthdays. Hannah was very responsive and helpful explaining every aspect of what to expect, what our options for boats and dining were, and accommodated all of our needs. She, Sam, Captain John, and Chef Troy made the experience one of a lifetime and helped fulfill a dream of my parents to do a dinner cruise on a river. We highly recommend Nautiste to make your event a memorable one!

We booked this for our wedding day, and it was a great cruise around DC, which served as nice break between our ceremony and our reception. The crew was highly professional, attentive, and made sure all of our guests were very comfortable. We had numerous questions before the trip, to plan for food, drinks, seating, and they Nautiste was highly responsive and informative. The ship itself was beautiful, too. I highly recommend Nautiste for a lovely day out on the water.
July 2025 • Group-Trip Party
We booked this trip for our 8th grader because her school trip was cancelled. Our goal was to make it a magical trip she’d never forget. When we decided to see if we could see the fireworks privately on a boat our search lead us to the Nautiste website, which lead us to Hannah. From start to finish it was a pleasure. Hannah was so wonderful to work with, we had multiple conversations and even a zoom to be sure we had everything we needed to make this special for our family. Everything was specific to what we wanted and hand selected by a company that truly cares and strives to provide an amazing experience. It was a night we won’t forget and better than I could’ve imagined. I can’t wait to go again. Worth every penny. Also the oysters were the best I’ve ever had. We booked the boat Independence and loved it, the vintage wood, it is a gorgeous boat. Meticulously cared for and plenty of space for our party of 8.

Nautiste was a fantastic experience! We wanted to escape the crowds for the fireworks show for Cherry Blossom Festival, and still wanted to be a part of the special time. Hannah and her captain and crew made that happen! We were delighted by the food and wine, which were paired perfectly to our tastes. The night was unforgettable!

This was such a fun time! Hannah and Art were amazing. We had a beautiful ride that was a celebration, food experience, and tour all wrapped in one. If you’re in Alexandria or DC don’t miss an opportunity to see the area by water with Nautiste.

I did an boating experience on two of the vintage yachts and had a really awesome time. The Independence boat is both absolutely gorgeous and comfortable. The American Pie Boat makes you feel like you're on your own private family boat. Highly recommend

This is an unparalleled experience with great seafood and wine pairings as well as a beautiful sunset scenic tour of DC. Incredible and intimate experience curated by chef Troy and others.
