Waterways Cruises was founded in 1994 by Hilton Smith and grew from a small family operation into Seattle’s most upscale cruise and event company.  Originally starting with a single yacht for private charters, Waterways successfully expanded its operations to three luxurious vessels (Emerald Star, Olympic Star, and Destiny), accommodating upwards of 30,000 guests per year in the last 16 years.

In 2010 Waterways Cruises launched Lake Washington Dining Cruises, departing from the Southport Pier & Promenade in Renton and from the Waterways’ HomePort in Seattle.  Featuring new menus, scenic cruise routes and exciting entertainment options, Lake Washington Dining Cruises bring fine dining experience and sightseeing opportunities to Lake Union and Lake Washington.
