Excellent cruise! Worth the money spent on this, and a great morning spent at sea. Being able to watch the Blue Angels practice directly over you and see beautiful sights, and experience some dolphin action, was awesome. Excellent job done by the Captain and crew, to include mention of deckhand/capitan Ally, she was entertaining and knowledgable! Best experience in Pensacola thus far!

There were so many dolphins 🐬 It was amazing. The jokes were funny, if you were witty enough to catch them. Lol.
Highly recommend 👌 👍 👏

Crew members were fun and informative! Helped us understand a lot about the dolphins and their babies!
Have never seen so many dolphins on a trip!! Highlight of our trip so far.

Great experience. They took us out the farthest they have ever took the boat just to see some dolphins and it was amazing to get to see them.
Jessica_W, Apr 2024
We loved this cruise! We didn’t see any dolphins right away so they took us out further and we got a great show and saw a beautiful sunset. The crew was knowledgeable and fun as well.

First time doing this and it was great experience. This was also my first time coming to Pensacola Florida area, I really enjoyed myself.

The captain and crew were informative and really enjoyed their jobs and made sure we enjoyed the trip despite not being able to the Blue Angels practice

We saw the most dolphins 🐬 we have ever seen on The Frisky Dolphin boat tour!
Weather was perfect- went in early April so lots of dolphins 🐬 and babies.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Thanks for the great review, our crew know where to find them for sure and yes how about the babies aren’t they wonderful!

Didn't get a chance to explore. My daughter had an emergency so we went to hospital, but no money back due to booking the same day. I was hoping for at least half since no one could attend, but I guess their policy is theirs even in emergency situations of their guests.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Hi LaToya we hate to see the one star review and understand that those pesky emergencies arise that’s why we offered to get you out the following day for free but we never heard from you. Don’t forget on future bookings to apply “trip protection” to your reservations
Brittnay_W, Apr 2024
It was definitely worth it. Very peaceful, the host was great. Very laid back ride. We’ll definitely be back.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Sometimes there is just nothing better than peaceful we are so happy you enjoyed your tour!
