If you're staying at the Westin, this is a great tour company to book with because you can walk to the meeting point across the street. The crew was very nice and organized. The boat ride was smooth. They supplied snorkel gear, water, and fruit punch. You need to bring your towels and sunscreen. The first stop was the coral garden, which was great snorkeling. The second stop was Stingray City. They gave us squid and instructions on how to feed the stingrays. They had a photographer that took everyone's pictures with the stingrays that were available for purchase. The third stop was Starfish Point where we relaxed and looked at the starfish. I like how they provided instructions on how to handle the starfish properly. 100% recommend.
Great experience. Super accommodating. I would recommend this to anyone looking for various stops in one 3 hour tour!
This was an amazing trip and adventure. Aster, JJ and the crew were incredible. They helped everyone along the way and were the nicest crew we have ever encountered. The team picked us up at our condo on time and also returned us after the trip. The captain was very knowledgeable and knew exactly where to put the boat. Also, he and the crew knew every other charter and team out there and they all gave way to our boat and team. Just perfect in every way. I will 100% book with them on my next trip!
Great experience! Excellent crew! We loved swimming with the stingray’s . Enjoyed the snorkeling also
We had such an awesome experience Jonathan, jaden, and rich made it very memorable for us A must book trip if visiting cayman.
Wonderful experience! Entire crew was amazing, Richard, Jonathan, Jaron and Prince. Highly recommend booking with Captain Marvin’s!
We had a great experience with Captain Marvin's tours. The boat was well maintained and the gear all looked brand new. The crew worked very hard to ensure that everything was running smoothly and that everyone was having a great time. Our first stop was for snorkeling, and that was our favorite stop- there were so many varieties of fish. Next was stingray city- which is a lot of fun. We were able to feed the stingrays and get our picture taken kissing one. It felt like someting special- being so up close to the gentle rays. The final stop was starfish point. It was a nice stop, and I am glad we did it. But if we went back, we would book a two stop snorkeling tour- our personal preference
We just got back from Captain Marvin’s Sting Ray Tour and cannot stop talking about it! We were a little nervous heading in — we had our 1.5-year-old and 4-year-old with us — but from the moment we stepped on board, we felt completely at ease. The sting ray encounter was magical. We even felt comfortable bringing both young kids into the water with us to touch the rays — a moment we’ll never forget! If you’re on the fence about doing this with very young children, DO IT. This was hands-down one of the highlights of our trip. Highly recommend! 🐟
We had so much fun on this trip! Our hosts were so fun and so helpful. Marcela got great pictures There were stingrays everywhere and our snorkeling spot was great.
We did not get to go on this excursion. We contacted them to say we were late disembarking and they said the bus was full and they could not wait. We emailed our advisor and was sent a secondary time for 10:30 am, but did not get the location and pick up time until 10:15, and it was a 10:00 am pick up. We called again, the driver said the bus was full and there were no openings. Therefore, we never got to go.
