    The weather was perfect and the trip was great. We saw the dolphins in the evening and took some great pictures of the sunset and atlantic ocean.
    Too loud … not enough info. Less music, more info on what we’re seeing.
    BillieJo_W, Apr 2024
    The guide seemed less interested in talking about sites, etc. than she was riling up the passengers. Not at all what I expected. Rowdy drunken passengers.
    A lovely sunset to end a beautiful day!

    I took a tour out of St. Augustine, Florida. The tour I originally registered for had to be cancelled day of due to a mechanical issue, so they booked me to a different tour leaving at the same time - based on the message provided, I almost didn't realize the tour left from a different location. I enjoyed the scenery and the tour guide was informative.
    Great tour
    Lynn_R, Apr 2024
    The tour guides were great. Christie and Dennis. Very informative and fun. We saw dolphins including a baby, pelicans, and a manatee breach the surface. Not to mention a beautiful sunset. Well worth the time and money.
