Fun but not as expected
Otto_B, Feb 2024
This is a fun experience if you are looking for more of a harbour tour where the Captain talks most of the time (little facts and anecdotes about the Navy and Coast guard, history of the area etc). That's fine if that's what you pay for and how it is described. It is described as more of a private sunset/chill/BYOB experience and we expected to be able to hang out with our group and talk/drink rather than be given a tour where the Captain talks the whole time. Be aware the waters can be rough as well and the boat is small so you will get wet and I wouldn't recommend for anyone who gets motion sickness. While the Captain was extremely nice and genuine, it was unexpected that we'd be essentially listening to him talk the entire time. At the end he made it clear that an expected gratuities $50+ per couple which is 26% or more depending on what you paid at booking. I found this to be a very high expectation.
Response from Host, Feb 2024
Dear Otto_B, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your recent sunset cruise with us. We appreciate your honesty and understanding that your experience wasn't exactly what you were expecting. We take all reviews seriously and use them to continuously improve our offerings. It sounds like the Captain thought you were enjoying his narrated tour and we apologize if he read your group incorrectly. We have guests who want to crank the music and party, do a narrated tour, or enjoy a romantic sunset with just the sound of the ocean. In the future, we will make sure the Captains have communicated more effectively with the guests regarding their preferences. While we appreciate your kind words about the Captain being "extremely nice and genuine," we understand that having less time for private conversation amongst your group due to the commentary wasn't ideal. Regarding the waters being rough and the boat size, we do mention these potential factors in our booking information and disclaimers. However, we'll reiterate these points more prominently to ensure guests are fully aware of the potential for choppy waters especially for those prone to motion sickness. Finally, we acknowledge your feedback regarding the gratuity suggestion. While we never want to pressure anyone, the suggested amount reflects the industry standard for tipping in the service industry, and gratuities are entirely at the discretion of our guests based on their satisfaction with the experience. We'll review how our Captains communicate gratuity expectations to ensure it's clear and informative without being perceived as demanding. We truly value your feedback and hope you'll consider giving us another chance in the future. We're committed to providing an enjoyable and memorable experience for all our guests, and your insights help us achieve that goal.
Beautiful sunset cruise
Maria_C, Dec 2023
Everything was wonderful. Captain Jimmy was great and very informative and friendly. The boat was the perfect size for us all to be together. The bathroom was also a huge benefit.
Response from Host, Dec 2023
Thanks so much for the great review, Maria_C! We're thrilled to hear you had such a fantastic sunset cruise with Captain Jimmy. We're glad you enjoyed the tiki boat - there's nothing quite like enjoying the open water with all your loved ones. And yes, the onboard bathroom is a lifesaver, isn't it? We believe even paradise needs a little practical magic sometimes! Thanks again for choosing us for your sunset adventure. We hope to welcome you back aboard soon for another unforgettable tiki time!
Tiki Bar Boat Well Worth It
Michele_N, Oct 2023
Trisha was funny and knowledgeable. We had nice tour of the area before settling in for our sunset. Well worth the money to have this cute little tiki boat all to yourselves.
Response from Host, Oct 2023
Hi Michele_N, We really appreciate you taking the time to write rate and review us. We're so glad to hear you enjoyed your private sunset tiki cruise and will be sure to share your kind words with Capt. Tricia. Thank you for choosing Tiki Boat Adventures!

Nice slow paced cruise but not exciting as one would expect from a floating tiki bar
Sue_S, May 2023
Saw a beautiful sunset but was disappointed that there was no party music and didn’t realize that $400+ didn’t include drinks
Response from Host, May 2023
Hi Sue_S, thank you for sharing your feedback. We are so happy you enjoyed a beautiful sunset. However, we are sorry to hear that you did not realize that all of our trips are BYOB as mandated by law on a vessel this size. Our tiki boats have a blue tooth enabled soundbar that lets you enjoy whatever music you wish or request from the Captain. I apologize once again for the disconnect. Your satisfaction is important to us, so please reach out to me directly at (305) 998-8599 so we can find out more about your experience.
Great 2 hours!
MaryEllen_T, Apr 2023

Response from Host, Apr 2023
Hi MaryEllen_T, you've left a smile on the faces of our whole team with your kind words. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. We're grateful you chose Tiki Boat Adventures. Have an amazing day!
Calm & fun times trying to catch the green flash
Russell_S, Mar 2023
Captain Jim was very nice & informative. I would consider this much more calm & personal for a family of 4-6. If you are looking for live entertainment & a wilder booze cruise, definitely go with the cats. There IS a restroom, so don’t worry about the cocktails. Calmly watch the sunset aboard the tiki.
Response from Host, Apr 2023
Dear Russel_S, Just wanted to let you know how much your review means to us here at Tiki Boat Adventures. We do all we can to provide our guests with the best service, and it always makes our day when our customers enjoy a private charter exactly the way they envision it. Cheers to finding the green flash!
Our 🌅 Sunset Cruise 6/8/22
Sherri_D, Jun 2022
Captain Morgan was the best! He was extremely personable and answered all our questions in the items we pointed out! The sunset was amazing and he made it even better! A Texas boy so you can’t go wrong there. We look forward to going back and doing this again. Also we were scheduled for Tuesday but the weather was bad so Eric contacted me to move to Wednesday! It was perfect.
Response from Host, Jun 2022

Family Tiki Bar Boat at Sunset
Gene_H, Apr 2022
Morgan was great! The ride was very peaceful and Morgan gave us plenty of Key West information. The sunset wasn't one of Key West's best that night, but we had a great time!

Hi Gene_H, We really appreciate you taking the time to share your review with us. We are so glad your family enjoyed their private sunset tiki cruise with Capt. Morgan. We hope to welcome you back again next time you are in Key West!

Sunset cruise with Captain Morgan.
LawrenceF_M, Feb 2022
Captain Morgan was great. Sunset cruise was excellent. Saw the sunset but would still have been fun if we had not. Learned a lot about the area.

Yvette_E, Dec 2021
It was a Beautiful day to take a TIKI Sunset cruise. My husband and I truly enjoyed it. We were able to see the entire island.

Lynn_J, Dec 2021
Design of the boat not very good,. All lined up on one side made it hard to talk. Was windy so had to stay in our seat. Other tiki boats had seats in a circular pattern
Response from Host, Dec 2021
Dear Lynn_J, Thank you for providing your feedback. We apologize the boat's configuration did not satisfy your expectations. We think the design is clever, since it allows the boat to have a restroom on board. The Captains must consider safety first, and therefore, staying seated while the boat is underway in windy conditions is required. Please reach me personally via email or phone, and I would be happy to discuss your issue at your earliest convenience. My direct line is (305) 998-8599.
Great time with Capt. Morgan
Shrineil_P, Nov 2021

Steven_S, Nov 2021
Great tour with a great captain. No restroom on sunset cruise, that was a big disappointment but other than that it was great!
Response from Host, Nov 2021
Hi Steven_S, thanks for sharing your great review of your sunset cruise with Tiki Boat Adventures. We're delighted to hear you had an awesome experience. We apologize your Captain did not point out the restroom onboard as it is hidden from view. In the future we will make sure each Captain points out the location of the restroom during their safety briefing. Thank you for bringing this to our attention and we hope to cruise with you again soon!
Captain Morgan was great!...
