Scenic Boat Tour, Winter Park

About Scenic Boat Tour

Scenic Boat Tour operates hour-long guided cruises through the lakes and canals of Winter Park's chain of waterways. Visitors board one of six pontoon boats and navigate narrow passages lined with lush tropical vegetation while viewing local wildlife and natural scenery. The tour passes magnificent mansions and historic homes, Rollins College, Kraft Azalea Gardens, and Isle of Sicily. Tours depart hourly throughout the day from the dock at the east end of Morse Boulevard on Lake Osceola, located fewer than five minutes from downtown Winter Park's Park Avenue shopping district. The boat trips suit first-time visitors seeking flora and fauna as well as local residents looking for an off-the-beaten-path experience. All tours operate on a first-come, first-serve basis, though private tours and larger groups can be arranged in advance. The attraction has operated since 1938 in Winter Park, Florida.
