Excellent Tour
Mon, Mar 8  1:00 PM bdstone Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
Our tour biologist was very knowledgeable and more than willing to answer any questions. The boat captain was also informative. Both were very pleasant personalities and it was obvious they both loved what they were doing. We saw several dolphins on our tour. Our guide pointed out how they identify them and took pictures to show us. The 45 minute "shelling" was also fun. My husband was surprised he liked it so much and our 24 & 25 year olds also enjoyed it. It is for everyone. I would highly recommend this!

Don't miss this!

A wonderful, wonderful experience: yes, dolphin sightings and identifications! close-ups of osprey in their nests! and a stellar beach for gathering shells. All of this made even more enjoyable by the crew on board. Kent, the naturalist, was a gem: not only did he id many species for us, he also circulated among the guests answering questions and offering photos of "critters" we had just seen (computer and printer on board). I'd do this again in a heartbeat! It couldn't have been better.

Our dolphin tour was rescheduled due to weather, however my husband & I went on the tour on Thursday March 4 with 3 other family members. Despite the cold winds, the crew was great & we saw about a dozen dolphins. It was very cool to see the dolphins playing in the wake of the boat!! Would highly recommend to everyone visiting Marco Island!

This was a really great tour! My adult parents truly enjoyed this tour and the guides were amazing. They were so knowledgeable and made this tour quite interesting. Their respect for the environment and dolphins was remarkable - I would recommend this tour to everyone from child to adult. What a great value too!

This is not just a sighseeing tour! We not only saw dolphins, we learned about their activities and habits. We also learned about the eco system around Marco Island and how it all ties together. An excellent tour for anyone who wants to learn more about our world and well as see great scenery and wildlife. The time allowed for searching for shells on the island was an added bonus. Overall a very very excellent tour.

Funny and interesting
Tue, Feb 23  1:00 PM sylvieroux Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
Presentation (expectation of such cruise and scientist project ) and pictures book appreciated and relevant. It is really interesting for children and parents. Few dolphins were seen during our cruise. Two of them followed and jumped behing the boat which was really funny for kids ! However, the stop at the beach (during 45 min.) is not relevant. We really should appreciate to continue the cruise to discover area and to see more dolphins.

We loved it!

We recently took a cruise on the Dolphin Explorer and our family enjoyed every minute of it. Our girls are 2 and 5 and the crew was very good about helping them spot and even track the number of dolphins as well as other commonly viewed creatures. The crew was also great about answering all of our questions. Our five-year even had the opportunity to name a dolphin not previously identified and received a Dolphin Explorer badge upon the completion of the trip. She was very excited to tell all ofher classmates all about her fun adventure! We also enjoyed receiving the pictures at the end of our trip so we had something to remember our day. Thanks for a fun experience!

Educational w/o kids feeling like in school!

Terrific tour - if for nothing else, best shell collecting around :) We took 2 children, ages 2 & 8 and both enjoyed the tour tremendously. I would highly recommend. The guides knew the area well and knew the behavior to expect of the dolphins we saw (many!!!). This was not a flashy tour, but was very family friendly and enjoyable. The best part was watching the dolphins play in the wake of the boat - it was positively amazing!

great experience
Fri, Feb 12  9:00 AM VFleury Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
I booked this outing for my husband, 2 yr old son and myself during a conference I was attending for work. I wanted to have a fun activity our son would enjoy since he would be stuck in the hotel with his daddy while I was in class. Even on a cold (for FL standards) February day, our little boy enjoyed the cruise, pointing out dolphins and birds along the way. Our naturalist took time to answer questions from everyone on board and even took a souvenir photo of the 3 of us while we looked for shells on the beach. We had a wonderful time, I highly recommend it for children.

Nice opportunity to see dolphins and other wildlife. Very informative. Learned a great deal. I would recommend this to anyone. Enjoyed the shell collecting time also. Overall a very nice activity. The cost is quite reasonable and well worth it. The captain and the young environmentalist were great!!! Thank you.

Dolphin on Que.
Thu, Jan 28  1:00 PM smork88 Unspecified Unspecified Unspecified Unspecified
Hard to believe the dolphin were in the wild; they performed near the boat and remained mostly unnoticed when away. Boat handling was very professional and the onboard naturalist was very sociable as well as knowledgeable of the dolphin and the environment of the area. Always felt safe and secure. A very enjoyable afternoon and easy to recommend.
