| My only suggestion would be that a microphone be provided for the Naturalist and the captain to be able to share information with and answer any questions from the entire population of the boat.
I found that the Naturalist either positioned himself forward or aft and was only able to be heard by the people sitting in close proximity to where he was standing. It was a bit frustrating not to be able to hear all that was said.
Other than that, I enjoyed the experience. |

| i chose this tour from an advert located in the 'must do' magazine for the marco / naples area and looked it up online and saw all the positive reviews so decided to book it .
it was excellent and very informative , the crew were very knowledgeable and were able to answer all the questions asked of them and made it seem like they have never been asked that one before.. although it is primarily a dolphin study there is plenty of other things to see as well as the superb dolphins themselves and on my trip we actually saw 4 manatee frollicking in the marco river ... a great day and the kids were thrilled to bits to see so much wonderful florida wild life |

| This was our second time on this boat tour and it was even better the second time around. We saw more dolphins then last year and the captain had them playing in the wake of the boat. My kids had a wonderful time and I think everyone should go on it at least once. The naturalist thats on the boat teaches you about birds the enviroment and other things along with learning about the dolphins. Highly recommend it for kids as well as adults. |

| Great way to experience dolphins and other Florida wildlife while contributing to a worthwhile project. The shelling part of the expedition was icing on the cake. |

| What a great way to learn! Have fun and learning at the same time is the best way to teach kids and adults. I discovered things I did not know and I have been to the dolphin research center in the Keys, Theater by the sea and Discovery Cove at Sea World to swim with the dolphin.I hope this project contimues for a long time in the future. The experience of being in nature with all the wildlife is something to be treasured forever. |

| I've lived in Florida most of my life and learned so much on this trip. Kent was so knowledgeable and very open to questions. We saw dolphin and manatee right off the boat and Captain Chris was so good to slow the boat and stay in that area to give us up close views. Wonderful time and would love to do it again on our next trip to Marco Island! |

very enjoyable

| We loved seeing the dolphins out in the wild - they played in the wake of the boat. The naturalist was very friendly with my children (3 and 6). We had a good time and would recommend this tour to others |
