Great quick tour - The tour was great and Ryan was very knowledgeable about the area. I took my 7 yr old daughter and she really enjoyed it. Ryan was able to quickly spot a manatee and a dolphin for us.

Dolphins and sunshine. - There were lots of dolphins to see. The weather was great. It was nice to have comfortable seating both under the shade canopy and in the sun if you wanted. The guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Thanks for a fun tour!

Wonderful experience! - It was wonderful! The guide helped us look for dolphins while he was navigating the waters, he also shared many interesting facts about Florida wildlife. We managed to see at least 10 dolphins and 2 manatees within 2h trip. It was also great to see Fort Myers Beach from the waterside. Definitely worth it!

Best trip ever - This was the best experience of my whole holiday (and yes I went to Disney) captain was so fun and engaging, we saw loads of wildlife, and captain was so knowledgeable about not only the wildlife but also the surrounding houses which were a sight in themselves. I went at sunset, which was a truly magical experience. Memories to treasure for a lifetime Make sure to get some fish and chips at the restaurant next door -delicious *Note to the captain- I’m not sure my payment went through as I can’t see it on my bill and it’s showing as “cancelled” in my trip history. Please contact me so I can rectify! Thank you* Rachel

Friends & family dolphin watching excursion- - Saw a few dolphins as well as a baby dolphin (calf) near the harbor. The boat operator was friendly and knowledgeable, he answered all the questions we had on the hurricane & then took us past some beautiful homes & yachts as well as the shrimp boats and pointed out other interesting things about the area. He played great music while we were aboard & offered FREE beverages such as bottled water and soda. I’d highly recommend this trip if you’re looking for something to do around the Fort Myers area!

Nice but not really what the name suggests. - The captain (Ryan) was very nice and informative. There were ice-cold drinks for free. At the end of the tour, however, you have to realize that the trip only goes through artificially created waters, 50 percent of which are the harbor. Seeing manatees here is extremely unlikely. However, you can see dolphins several times in the harbor basin. I think that it is a very expensive tour through the harbor and adjacent waters. However, this description applies to most of these tours. If you want to see manatees, you have to be extremely lucky or accept that you have to do a "quiet" kayak tour.
