“History with a view!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 May 2012

The Destiny Harbor Tour is a great way to learn and see the history of Gig Harbor and the Pudget Sound. Not to mention some spectacular views of Mt. Rainer and the Narrows Bridge. I highly recommend the tour to a day visitor or even a new resident of the area. More

We just went up to Gig Harbor and it turned out to be one of those gorgeous days...perfect to go out on a boat and see the area. Captain Tom and his wife were definitely knowledgeable about the area....Tom had been there since he was 10 and was definitely proud of Gig Harbor. We met lovely people on the boat,... More

“Beautiful scenery combined with informative orientation”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 August 2011

We took the two hour tour out of Gig Harbor on a beautifully clear day and it was a fun and outstanding experience. Captain Tom is a long term and very knowledgeable resident of the area and as the tide was coming in he could find quiet spots where with the engine off the boat stood still. At a point... More

“Captain Tom was teriffic...truly outstanding”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 July 2011

We had eagles, harbor seals and wonderful views. Reasonably priced. We had perfect weather which just added to the experience. This is one harbor tour that... More

“Fantastic Time on the Water”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 July 2011

Enjoy Captain Tom as he navigates through Gig Harbor and out beneath the Narrow Bridges--Excellent running commentary on everything from the tides to the history of the settlers, and the various boats as well as the animals. See eagles, seals, million dollar homes, and some gorgeous scenery. More

“Well worth the money!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 July 2011

Captain Tom was terrific! We thoroughly enjoyed the 2 hour tour - it was informative and educational. Just seeing bald eagles in their natural habitat was breathtaking. Mount Ranier was 80 miles away, but the view from Puget Sound was awesome. More

We had a great boat tour of Gig Harbor with Captain Tom Drohan of Destiny Harbor Tours. We explored Gig Harbor for 1.5 hours and saw bald eagles and a baby seal in a cove. It was our first visit to Seattle and Puget Sound and seeing the sound from the water was amazing. Tom's knowledge and love of Gig... More
