From out tour guide who...
From out tour guide who was so sweet and funny (I can't remember her name) to Captain Scott, I'm already planning my next tour.
Great tour!
Best excursion I’ve ever been on. The whole family who own and run this business were just great. The captain and tour guide were super knowledgeable and we really enjoyed ourselves!
Fun and Unique
We loved our experience on the dolphin and wildlife water tour. We saw dolphins, pelicans, osprey and more. I do wish we gotten a closer look at the dolphins but they were being shy the day we went, and our guide was trying his hardest to get us all a great view. The crew members were kind, funny and helpful. There was a bathroom on board as well as snacks and a little bar for beverages. The seats were comfortable and you could pull the windows down when it started to rain so you could still enjoy the view. We loved getting to see the lighthouse, Anastasia State Park and the fort from another perspective than what we were used to. We love St. Augustine and this was a wonderful way to experience it. I recommend this experience, especially if you love wildlife, St. Augustine or both. We really enjoyed our time on the water tour. Thank you!
