Clayton Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

The boat ride was very pleasant (although it was a cool day and the protective windows were closed) it was very informative, lots of history in this area. Went into Canadian waters and under the international bridge connecting Canada n USA. Of course the major attraction was the Boldt Castle with 1.5 hrs visiting time. Crowd size was minimal because of the time of year, late September. Staff on the river cruise and at the Castle were very friendly and knowledgeable. Price was very reasonable.

The tour was fantastic. Just the right amount of time on the water and at Boldt Castle. We particularly appreciated the knowledge, stories and personable nature of our guide Liam.

We really enjoyed our Ultimate tour. We are from Texas and had never heard of 1000 Islands region. We learned a lot from our tour guide, Liam. He is VERY knowledgeable about the area and gave lots of fact along with some fun!

We had a great day on this tour; Brad made the entire trip very interesting. The views were spectacular. The Boldt Castle was a highlight. We had our included lunch there at their picnic area. I highly recommend this tour.

My husband and I really enjoyed the sunset cruise. The weather was a little chilly, so we came prepared wearing sweatshirts and I brought a blanket. They also had blankets available for anyone to use. Jack was our Captain and Liam was our guide (and our bartender:) Liam provided some information on some of the places we saw along the way, but the sunset cruise is more of a relaxing cruise so there’s intentionally not as much talking. The sunset was absolutely gorgeous. It was way more beautiful in person than it is in the photos I took. We enjoyed some beers that we purchased from the bar. If you’re looking for a chill, relaxing boat cruise while looking at some beautiful scenery, I would definitely recommend this tour.

Great Guide very knowledgeable of local History

I came here with my family for the boat tour. The lighthouse was pretty good and the few dozen minor stories as we were sightseeing on the river were enjoyable.

Beautiful tour! We experienced an amazing sunset and other parts of the thousand islands. A must if you are in the area 🌇

Great tour of 1000 Islands. Liam was such a great tour guide! He was funny, personable and so informative! Highly recommend!

The price was very reasonable. The boat guide did an excellent job as did the captain. Boldt Castle was beautiful and I was impressed that you could explore the whole castle from attic rooms to the basement at your leisure. It was a perfect way to end our vacation !

Our tour was with Liam and Gary (the captain). Both were so much fun while at the same time being professional and knowledgeable. Felt super safe and the 5 hour tour went by quickly

I recently visited the Thousand Islands with my wife, and our cruise through the region was truly exceptional. From the moment we boarded, the views were breathtaking peaceful waters, beautiful island scenery, and a relaxing atmosphere that made the entire experience feel special.The highlight of our trip was exploring Boldt Castle. The history, architecture, and romantic story behind it added so much depth to the visit. Walking through the castle together made the day even more memorable. We also stopped at a decommissioned lighthouse that has been transformed into a charming tourist attraction. Its preserved structure and panoramic views were absolutely worth the visit.This cruise gave us a unique blend of history, beauty, and tranquility. It’s an experience we’ll always remember, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the Thousand Islands region

The Sunset Cruise was Awesome!! We absolutely loved every minute! The weather was wonderful and the sunset beautiful!! The Captain and bartender were Great!! We would highly recommend this!!!

Very nice , wish they told more history on the voyage. It was relaxing.Easy check in. Had a good time.

It was very interesting and fun climb to the top of the lighthouse. Actually went to a different part of the river than other tour boats have taken us to.

It was an amazing experience being out on the river. The lighthouse Island has a treasure hunt for kids that get a little special treat at the end. The boat ride was super comfortable. Just a good time.
