We understand you frustration. But will not take you out in dangerous weather conditions. If your comment is because we care for your safety. That's ok.
A really nice day out on the water. Great views and Mark the captain/tour guide brought a lot of enthusiasm and knowledge on the trip. A true value tour
Our policy is if you did not see dolphins. You and your party my return for free till you do see them.
It was a Great dolphin cruise to take because it had a top for shade on a hot day. Mark was our Captain and made it very interesting. Even though we just saw a baby dolphin from afar, and no dolphins wanted to play in thr boats wake, if was a very nice day to be on the water. Thank you Mark for the warm welcome and narrated facts and music!
We enjoyed the tour with our grandchildren great memories
It was good. Wish we got to more dolphins
As dolphins are wild animals. And as we are 97% successful. There is no 100%. So our policy is if a trip was not that successful. You and your party may return free at any time in the future.
