My daughter had a blast. Captain Tyler was amazing. I do wish there could have been more dolphins and closer to them but that's not able to be controlled. The captain was entertaining and interacted with the passengers so it was a fun day!
This was not really a historical tour more a dolphin tour. I was a little sad there was just a little history on one ship.
My family had a great time. My grandbaby even enjoyed herself. The captain was very knowledgeable about the history of the area and it didn't hurt the he had a great sense of humor. The caption was very engaging with the riders. We were excited for the opportunity to see the dolphins. It was worth the cost and the time
It was exciting to see lots of dolphins. Captain Ben made it very interesting, insightful, and fun! We will definitely book a boat tour with them again when we go back to Galveston. We had a blast!

We had so much fun seeing the dolphins and a little bit of history. The captain was really good and gave us fun and interesting information.
Very good experience! The captain was knowledgeable of the area and was funny! The admission fee was comparable to others in the area, and the length of the ride was good for the money spent.
