Customized Cruises for the Win with City Cruises Berkeley

The City Cruises Berkeley team can help you choose a vessel that is perfect for your networking event, and we have several of which to choose. The Sunset Hornblower boasts an interior as impressive as the vistas outside and is the perfect venue for medium-sized groups of up to 100 guests. Polished hardwood columns and exposed overhead beams emphasize her charm, and new plush, neutral tones round out her fresh and updated look. Spacious upper decks display gorgeous French doors that open to spectacular views that make a stylish backdrop for your event.

Hosting an event for around 130 people? The Pacific Hornblower will captivate guests with comfortable amenities and expansive views. Her second-deck dining salon capitalizes on natural light as the wraparound windows provide spectacular views of the bay from every seat. Natural hues and rich mahogany adorn the intimate deck space. With her large outer bow, interior dining setup, and 360-degree views, the Pacific provides the perfect setting for a one-of-a-kind event.

With classic charm and style, the Empress Hornblower can accommodate up to 250 guests and resembles a turn-of-the-century riverboat. Her two interior decks feature art deco-inspired brass chandeliers, wall sconces, rich mahogany bars, and plush carpeting that furbish the dining areas for a simple and elegant ambiance. The wraparound outer and top decks allow guests to step out and take in the sights of the bay from any level, and her spacious sundeck opens to picture-perfect views of San Francisco.
