Do not book this attraction
Elena_M
, Jul 2022
We were not able to get to the boat! The was departing at 8:30 pm. Due to the unexpected traffic because of the accident we were running late. Eventually, we were able to get there and pick up our tickets on time. At 8:30 we were standing there, the boat was still there too. They did not even closed the doors yet, however, the crew did not let us in. We have tried to explain the situation and asked to be boarded since they didn’t even close the doors yet. Around 8:35 they started closing the door in front us. Then we were talking to the captain for another 20 minutes. No one was willing to assist. Extremely rude crew

Paid for Odyssey Boat for two and placed on Spirit of Chicago after waiting two day for Odyssey sit down dinner.
Vivian_T
, Jul 2022
I paid $500 for dinner for two on Odyssey and was displaced to the Spirit of Chicago with drinks. There is no substitute for the Odyssey Cruise Line sit down dinner I got married on the boat decades ago and I am still trying to understand why I was charged Odyssey prices then displaced to the City of Chicago Buffet dinner.

The fireworks and the good food. We had the worst service in the food area. Never received our drinks and did not even have our water refilled. The boat was nice, but it was hard to ignore the non-existent service.

Special night ruined by false advertising
Lanetta_O
, Aug 2021
This experience was awful. I really want my money back. It was false advertising this was a BUFFET NOT A THREE COARSE DINNER. They over charged according to the price I saw on the ticket. I didn't eat or drink anything. I was seated directly in the line of the buffet, everyone brushed pass me everytime. Please do not purchase from this company. Zero stars... if select negative stars if I could

Viator engages in unethical business practices
Patty_F
, Jul 2021
I paid $425.00 for the premier Odyssey dinner cruise for a special occasion. When we arrived at the Odyssey booth to claim our tickets we were informed that the cruise was booked and that Viator, a third party vendor booked us on the Spirit cruise. This was a much cheaper cruise and not the top of the line cruise we booked. This was done without our knowledge or consent. The Spirit cruise was only about $140 and Viator pocketed the difference. Odyssey is aware of these practices and apparently does nothing about them. Beware of booking anything through this company. The Spirit and Odyssey cruises are not comparable. This is a big scam. Wish I had done my homework on Viator.

I bought tickets for the Odessey, but my date and I were put on the Spirit of Chicago. I paid for plates food, but we were given a self serve Buffett. Very disappointed, and unacceptable for the amount of money we paid.

Deception
Kenneth_B
, Jul 2021
I did not receive the packet that I purchased. I am disappointed by this. I read the many reviews by prior customers concerning this very issue. I paid for the three-course meal by ended up on the boat with a buffet. Since I read this in the reviews, I called before I purchased my tickets and was guaranteed that would not occur. After being seated I informed my server of the mistake and showed her my confirmation email. She took my phone and showed her manager, then told me that the manager would be by and talk with me. She also said, that my drinks were on the house. The manager never came by, I don't drink, however, I did order a drink which I was charged for. I am disappointed by the deceptive matter in which I was treated and I am requesting a full refund. If I do not receive a refund from the vendor, I will contact my credit card company. Just a lying company! I'm just saying! Stay away if you want the package that you pay for, that may not happen at all.
