Capacity has been limited to just 50 people, which is a quarter of the boat's usual operation.
The team also has a list of COVID-19 protocols to ensure the health and safety of passengers and crew.
While you're there, you can check out one of the trolley tours, too.
In particular, the Ghost & Mystery Trolley Tour takes you on a beautiful drive with some gorgeous fall scenery, then stops at places like the Cataraqui Cemetary, the famous Kingston penitentiary and Rockwood Asylum, an abandoned asylum from the 1800s.
Perfect for Halloween and spook-lovers. If you dare...
