This dolphin cruise is FANTASTIC! I did it for the first time about 2 years ago and LOVED it! This time I was in town with my sister who was really interested in seeing some dolphin. It was an easy choice where to do this as the first experience was so great! My family that lives down there have done cruises through other companies and were very disappointed. They say those companies dont compare to this tour! I especially like that they take/print pictures off for you at no additional cost!! Thank you so much and I HIGHLY recommend this tour! |

What a fabulous tour. The crew were fantastic and knowledgeable. Riley the dog was always excited to see the dolphins. We saw a dozen of them on our tour. A great experience for young and old alike. |

A very enjoyable trip. Saw lots of dolphins, had great weather, and the crew and staff were all friendly and worked hard to be sure we had a good time. Time on beach (45 min) was probably short for the kids in the group but was just right for us oldsters. |

The day was perfect, a bit cool on the boat, but the sun was out and when stopped it was perfect! Dolphins right away and we saw over a dozen. It was a wonderful learning experience also. Saw crab traps, eagles, and had a wonderful time on the beach. We enjoyed it completely. My husband took a ton of pictures of dolphins, up close!! |

Took my 88 year old mom on this tour and she loved it and had no trouble navigating the boat or the shelling beach.
My third trip and I'll go again next year when I'm back in Florida |

Its a wonderful experience, saw many dolphins and other wildlife, and the guide was very knowledgeable. Saw a mother and her calf, that was a highlight, as was the dolphins jumping in the wake of the boat. Everyone got pictures of some of what we saw. |

We took the Dolphin Eco-tour on a Thursday afternoon, & were joined with another group who were all friends. Our captain and our guide were both very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. We saw ospreys, egrets and, of course, dolphins. There was plenty of cold water and we had lots of time for the shelling on the beach they took us to at the end of our cruise. They provided books with interesting info about the various dolphins which have been living in the local waters and made sure we all had plenty of pictures, not only of the various birds and dolphins, but of ourselves. They made us feel very welcome, & I would encourage anyone visiting the Marco Island area to take advantage of this wonderful adventure. We will certainly take this trip again next year!! |

We had a lovely afternoon but were a bit disappointed with the number of dolphin sightings. We did see about four sets of two and one was exciting as the dolphin jump after our wake but I thought we would see hundreds together. Also, most of the sightings were on one side of the boat and I was on the other side, so was not able to. Get a really good view of a y of them. The crew were very friendly and efficient. I was hoping the naturalist on board gave us a bit more information but what he gave us was very good. Loved they gave you a few more professional pics they took as part of the trip. Overall, I would rate the trip a B. |

I liked that we stopped when the Captain and crew saw something interesting "dolphins" or other !and that it did not feel like it was a routine trip for them. We saw, we stopped and took pictures!
Liked the beach stop too,enough time to go in if we wanted. The eco crew memeber was very interesting!
Great fun trip and Thanks for the souvenir pictures! |

From the moment we entered the water in our untippable kayak, Randy and I were immersed in the wonder of nature. Our guides were knowledgable and enthusiastic about the wildlife and ecology of the area. We saw a dolphin mom teaching her baby to feed. It was a thrilling experience! |

First of all-Great staff! We are here from Ky on a couples trip. We saw advertisement at Charter Club and won 1 free pass. We decided it looked great but man did you guys blow that away. Lots of dolphins but they actually took us over to look closer!! Up close and what great information about the area and wildlife. Then to Keewaydin Island. Breathtaking views and best shelling anywhere. We had plenty of time to look around and they took a photo of us to take home. So worth the money and if your taking kids they have awesome program for them too. At end they get a very nice patch to sew on. Don't question this one. It was great! |

We took 13 family members from age 2-87 for our 8 year old grandsons' birthdays. We saw dolphins, birds, and mangroves. James who was the naturalist guide on our tour was very good with the kids. He explained what to look for and what we were seeing. We all learned something about the dolphins and the Florida wildlife. James took pictures and gave us copies. He had activity books for the kids to keep them engaged. We enjoyed the time on the beach looking for shells and the time on the boat. It was a birthday the boys will not forget! Thanks to Captain Chris, his dog Riley, and to James! |

After Christmas we left Naples where my parents live. My mother was so down from us leaving we went back in the new year. I booked the Dolphin trip to have a family trip including my parents. She is still commenting on how fun it was. She even took brochures home to get friends to go. We had a grand time seeing a dozen dolphins we identified. The beach was wonderful. Capt Chris was outstanding. The ecologist was informative and just down to earth fun. Thanks for making our trip to Florida end with a Bang. |

We enjoyed watching the dolphins jump and swim alongside and in back of our boat, the shelling expedition, and the books documenting the dolphins. |
