Fremont Avenue Ice Cream Cruises are a Treat!

Fremont Avenue Ferry

Rain, wind, sun or snow....we go. The little ferry Fremont Avenue is in it's 10th year of operation and in it's third year of operation from (South) Lake Union Park. The Sunday Ice Cream Cruise is a year round event. This 45-50 minute tour of Lake Union is a favorite for Seattle area, regional guests and tourists. The tour is lightly and humorously narrated with plenty of time between narrated sites to just sit back and enjoy the views and some funky old music while working on a chocolate root beer float or other ice cream treats. Hot chocolate and hot tomato soup also available in the winter.
