Mariposa Cruises
The largest Toronto Harbourfront tour provider, Mariposa operates seven ships: The Captain Matthew Flinders, the Northern Spirit, the Mariposa Belle, the Oriole, the Showboat, the Torontonian, and the Rosemary. Boat Cruises operate from mid-May through September. The fall season is a beautiful time for a Toronto Island cruise.
Mariposa offers Sunday brunch cruises, casual luncheon cruises, and three-hour magical dinner cruises. Weddings, corporate events, parties and other celebrations can be arranged through private charter. A local favourite is a narrated cruise aboard the Oriole. A Great Lakes Steamship replica, the Oriole is a classic, decorated with varnished wood, wrought iron, polished brass and plush upholstery. The large dining area is warmly lit by brass coach lamps, and has large picture windows with an oak stool bar.
