Loved! Cant wait to creek cat again! - My husband and I had a blast on the creek cat tour! They are so unique and definitely like a go cart on the water! You will get wet so def no jeans! Be prepared to listen to instruction as we had a couple show up on our tour in jeans and they got stranded as they couldn’t figure out how to drive and slowed our tour down a bit! Seeing the dolphins was amazing and the highlight of the tour!

‘Two thumbs up!l (aka increase speed) - Greg and Ellis were our tour guides for the sunset tour. On our friendly and fun tour we encountered adventure and numerous close sitings of dolphins! The Craig Cats were relatively easy to navigate for a newbie! Def coming back! Thanks guys!

Highlight of our trip - The creek cat tour was the highlight of our trip to Hilton head. The tour guides were very knowledgeable and friendly. You make stops along the way and learn about the islands and the history. The creek cat boats were a blast! Like a go cart on water. There is a dry box on the boat. We still did not bring our phones just in case. You will get wet, wear quick drying clothing. They do recommend taking your shoes off, we put ours in the dry box. We also brought water, there are cup holders in the boat. It was a great trip and we will be going again next year.
