If you get the chance, definitely hop on an Urban Pirates cruise! Within my group of friends, we had some doubters. By the end, everyone was having a great time. The pirate crew did a great job of making sure that every moment was filled with fun bits and games. I appreciate that we could bring our own drinks aboard. What a fun operation they’re running! Great idea and great execution.

Such a fun experience! My kids (ages 7, 8, and 10) enjoyed it. The crew was lively and kept the party going. There were games, songs, activities, and of course the kids loved the water cannons and just being on the boat itself. They're already asking to go back and do it again. Get the deal on Groupon if you can.

It's a fun kitschy thing to do. Went with a small group and we had a lot of fun. Clearly the more you buy into the gimmick the better. Also it's BYOB so bring more than you think so you can share.

We’ve gone on two family sailings, one last summer and one this summer. Both times, our time slot had to be rescheduled to another time on the same day. Knowing this was a possibility, I kept our day flexible when planning. I would recommend to others to do the same. While last summer was a good experience, this summer was even better. The captain was great in making sure everyone knew the safety protocols and encouraging anyone to speak up if they were feeling unwell due to the heat. They had fans with ice that were really nice on board. They had water if needed and were also selling bottles at a cheap price around $2 (not like the $6 you might pay elsewhere). There are pirate themed items you can buy and, again, the prices are very reasonable. The “pirates” were great with the kids. In particular, a man nicknamed Skully was wonderful with my son. He immediately picked up on my son’s vibe, who can be a little cautious and anxious at times, and connected with him. They encouraged him to participate in the games and immediately respected his decision if he wanted to just sit and watch instead. The way they interacted with him made him feel comfortable and by the end he was participating fully and having a great time. The staff this time around was truly wonderful, we will be back.

A Swashbuckling Good Time with Urban Pirates! Our experience with Urban Pirates in Baltimore was absolutely fantastic! The crew was full of energy, humor, and pirate spirit from start to finish. A special shoutout to Zephyr, who kept everyone entertained and in high spirits, and to Captain Bagel, who handled the ship like a true seasoned pirate, smooth sailing all the way!

We had a blast doing this with our kids. It was an insanely hot day so that did make it a little harder to enjoy but the crew/entertainers were amazing and put on a great show/adventure even through the heat. It was a great experience and I would recommend it for anyone with little ones. Was one of the highlights of our vacation.

A fantastic​ FIVE-STAR bucket list pirate cruise in Baltimore Harbor!​ WARNING: Our ship, the Relentless, was​ unmercifully “attacked” by a rogue pirate​ while in the harbor;​ ​however, the rapid response by the kids​ with the water cannons saved the day! (​see photos) The super crew kept everyone engaged with stories, music, dancing, and games while we​ enjoyed beautiful harbor views and cruised past historic ships, including the USCGC Taney (a Pearl Harbor survivor), the USS Torsk (a World War II submarine), and the USS Constellation (a Civil​ War-era warship).​ Top-notch captain and crew making it fun for all ages. Souvenirs on the dock, and you can bring your own drinks and snacks.
