Haig was awesome. Every time he spotted any sort of sea life, sting ray, shark, ect- he would point it out, then make sure we all were positioned to see it as he kyacked around with the fish. Amazing time! |

Captain Corey, Tony and Chris took great care of us on Danger Charters. They were knowledgeable, funny, and helped us enjoy ourselves. We were safe, learned a lot of awesome information, and had a great time. We loved kayaking through a channel created by mangroves, tracking our course on a nautical chart, looking at fish and horseshoe crabs, and snorkeling with sponges! We saw dolphins, sting rays, and a sea cucumber! The weather was great, the snacks and drinks were perfect, and we didn't feel like a herd of tourists. It was a group of less than 20 and we had everything we needed. Sailing out there was a great part of it, too! No noisy motor on our way into Key West's back country. My fiancé and I had a great time! We recommend it to all our friends as the best kayaking/snorkeling tour on the island. |

I would highly recommend Danger Charters! We just returned from a weekend in key west, and we took the half day sailing tour. Wendy and Wade were our guides, and both were very professional and so much fun! |

Being a frequent traveler and a south florida native I am no stranger to beautiful breathtaking surroundings, and throughout my life I have spent a great amount of time on beaches and cruising the waters in our own boat. However, I have never been so happy with a "tour" as I was on Saturday May 2, 2009 for the Danger half day snorkel and kayak sail. There was a perfect amount of sailers which was about 8 people including myself and my boyfriend. (watching the other boats load their travelers as if they were cattle at the docks, we were very happy to be on a private yet perfect tour) The crew that day was amazing!! They were well educated on the surroundings and always took the time to make sure everyone was comfortable and having a good time. They chopped up fresh fruit (with gloves on) and served us refreshments in the morning, and followed with chips and salsa and hummus and more refreshments in the afternoon. We went to a "NONCOMMERCIAL" island and kayaked the awesome waters with a detailed and fun tour guide leading us. We saw sharks, sting ray, bald eagle, birds, and much more. Following the kayaking we went snorkeling. With clean sanitized gear and all of the appropriate dirrections to keep us safe, we had an amazing time. We saw lobster, squid, beatiful fish, and colorful corals. What an awesome trip. The only thing my boyfriend and I regretted was not taking the longer trip, as when it was time to go back we were craving more. Thanks to the crew especially who were all professional, informative, and FUN!!

My boyfriend and I attended the 1/2 day trip and had a great time! The crew was funny and made us feel comfortable and safe. The crew was super enthusiastic and provided a wealth of knowledge on the history of the islands and its beautiful surroundings. We loved kayaking and didnt want it to end. The crew gave a brief lesson on snorkeling and then let us have free time to explore. I would have rather gone on the full day trip because we enjoyed it so much. Sailing back to key west with cocktails and the sunset was great. All in all a really memorable experience! Thanks Danger! |

We were a group of 6 28-30 year olds and I can honestly say this trip was the highlight of our Key West vacation. The boat crew was amazing- they not only made sure we were comfortable and having a great time, they also told us so much about the boat history, Key West history, and wildlife. We learned so much and we never would have thought it would have been so fun. Kayaking was super easy, and snorkeling too even for someone very inexperienced. They have all the equipment you need and they even serve beer. wine, and snacks as you sail around. I would recommend this trip to anyone even families. |

We had a wonderful time on our snorkeling and kayaking trip. Despite the gloomy weather, the trip was great. The crew was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about sailing and the area we went to. It turned out to be a great birthday present for my sister! |

I've taken a cheaper snorkel trip in Key West in the past though one of the bigger companies. This was a bit more $ but WAY better.
The other company used a large catamaran, fills it with as many drunk people as possible (50-70) and drops anchor in the middle of waters that are really much too rough for snorkeling. This trip takes about 12-14 people out in a sail boat to a very calm area. Although I wouldn't say that snorkeling in Key West even compares to the snorkeling in some of the carribean islands, it was still a nice relaxing experience.
I think the most unique part of the trip was the kayak around the mangroves where you get a nice introduction to the plants & animals of the area.
The greatest strength of this tour was balance:
Not too short or long
free beer, wine & good quality snacks but not an obnoxious booze cruise
relaxing yet entertaining
active but doable for a non-athletic person like myself
an opportunity to see a little nature
The service/crew were friendly, helpful & informative ..not too wacky or over the top |

Overall this was a great trip. The tour guides really made this trip great. All three of them were friendly, humorous, and very knowledgeable. I would recommend this trip to anybody looking a half day adventure, and looking to see another side of the keys apart from the night/party life...not that we didn't have a small party on the boat anyways! |
