We had a great trip. Saw lots of whales and dolphins. Saw some green turtles as well. My kids and I both enjoyed it.

I went with 2 other friends, we really liked this tour. The staff was great, it felt like they knew exactly where the whales will be.

My husband and I went to this tour on our 5th anniversary and we enjoyed it a lot! I wish it was longer than 2 hours, it was a beautiful experience.
