Which of these North Georgia boat tours looks like the most fun for your group?
I’d love to go on this boat tour. If there is a magical moment in the day is the sunset, day and night merge into a spectrum of colors that contemplated from the sea make it a spectacle to share with a loved ones. Friends or family, sharing this sailing experience with whoever we love is awesome.
I love the different boat tour options that are available. I haven’t been on an airboat since a trip to the Everglades decades ago, but I would definitely love to take the airboat tour of Lake Chatuge!
I have come across much information which is thrilling about North Georgia from your posts. This has induced much enthusiasm to tour to North Georgia to explore all the amazing and beautiful features I have read; I have come across much this far and I’m really excited to travel there. And yes, boat tours are fun indeed!!
Hello! I can think of almost nothing more relaxing than a day spent riding around in a boat. I hope you found the perfect boat tour for your group!
Wow, boat tours in the mountains sounds divine! I’ve never been to GA. The Lake Chatuge option sounds really fun with the lodging, dining, and water park. Is there lodging and dining available near Blue Ridge as well? The Aqua Tiki looks a little cheesy but what ever “floats your boat” ;).
Hi Molly, Thanks for considering Georgia for your next vacation!
There are some rental properties available on Lake Blue Ridge, and also a waterfront restaurant where you can dine after your day on the lake.
The Aqua Tiki was created for fun times on the lake — it might look a little cheesy but people have a great time on those little party boats!
Hi and thanks for sharing this. I could see us trying all of these. The airboat tour has to be great fun even though they do look as if they could easily capsize. But equally well the Aqua Tiki is just so over-the-top but has to be a great way to take a tour on the lake with friends and drinks. Thanks for sharing these great ideas. I just hope one day we will be able to visit this part of Georgia and enjoy the scenery, the lake, and these tours. Best regards, Andy
Hi Andy, If you haven’t tried an airboat ride, I definitely recommend it for anyone who likes a fast boat ride. It’s surprisingly smooth and a lot of fun!
The Aqua Tiki will let you enjoy a more leisurely pace as you sip drinks with your friends.
Either way, it’s going to be a great day on the lake! 🙂
I thought Captain Joes looked a little pricey. Are his prices about average for this type of adventure?
Probably for mine the Tiki boat tour looks about my style. Something where I can get good photographs.
However they all look good. Who knows if I get up that way these old creaky bones might even hop aboard the Airboat.
Hi Michael, The Capt’N Joe’s boat tours include the captain and can be tailored to what your group most wants to see or do. The 5-star rating that Capt’N Joe’s has earned on Facebook and TripAdvisor suggests that he provides a great value for your money!
However, I think you’ll have a great time no matter which option you choose! Have fun!!
