Here are our 2024 private yacht charter hourly rates:

*The hourly rate of Medium and Large yachts is based on 12 passengers. Additional passengers above 12 will be charged a flat fee of $250 per person.**Wednesday half-off rates are applicable for up to 10 guests only.

Here are our 2024 per-person rates for a one-hour champagne cruise:

* Note: There is no minimum passenger requirement for this charter; however, there is a minimum charge based on the required minimum passenger count. For example, you can come with two guests on a 1-hour champagne cruise, but a fee for a minimum of 4 guests will be charged. All cruises are private, meaning you have the entire yacht and crew to yourself. We do not mix groups on one yacht.

Bareboat charter means that the crew is not included in your charter price, and either you or your hired crew is responsible for operating the yacht. This is akin to renting a car. A crewed charter, on the other hand, is when Toronto Yachts’ permanently hired crew are in charge of your well-being as well as operating the vessel. Toronto Yachts offers both services. Before making a booking with any company, please ensure to ask for their Transport Canada Approved Insurance and Transport Canada Safety Inspection Certificate or Small Vessel Compliance Permit.

Toronto Yachts is the only Transport Canada-licensed yacht charter and boat Rental Company in Downtown Toronto, offering crewed charter services in the Power Yacht category for yachts with a capacity of 100 or fewer passengers. Numerous yacht operators are unable to legally provide this service due to Transport Canada’s stringent safety equipment, procedures, and extensive personnel training requirements. Consequently, some operators advertise the service illegally, risking public safety. For further information, please refer to the Global News press release by Toronto Yachts:

Picture yourself savoring a glass of champagne with your loved ones while cruising Toronto Harbour. Additionally, we offer yachts without a Liquor License, allowing clients to bring their own alcoholic beverages aboard at no extra cost.

Light rain typically does not warrant a cancellation, as it often lasts only an hour or two during the summer months. In such cases, we can usually adjust the timing of the trip to accommodate and ensure a pleasant experience for all passengers. While we operate in all weather conditions, our preference is always for clear skies and sunshine.

However, in the event of heavy rain or unsafe weather conditions, we ask clients to provide us with three alternative dates and times in order of preference. We will then make every effort to reschedule the charter for one of these options. It’s important to note that weather-induced rescheduling is solely at the discretion of the Captain and not the client.
