Tour guide Adam was great. Kept us entertained through the whole trip, Chatty and friendly All in all a good day out.
Just a fun guy made the trip better won’t forget this trip
Excellent experience with the tour guide Adam full of fun and nice facts
We travelled with Gary from Grayline. Gary went above and beyond to ensure everyone was comfortable on an extremely hot day. He was very informative and patient to accommodate some people’s request to amend return pick up time. Gary made our day much more enjoyable than we expected. We would recommend Gary to anyone looking for a trip.
Fantastic. Collection at our hotel by Grey line, another pick up then about a 45 mins transfer. Driver was informative and helpful. We had the hour airboat ride, any shorter would have been disappointing I think. Being July only saw a few alligators from distance but then a young one in the mud close up. Again the guide was excellent. Ride was at Wild Florida which had a nice wildlife park. We couldn’t take full advantage of the safari as we didn’t have a car but all in great trip.
Great day . Mauricio’s was fantastic planning the day and advising which places to go first
Fabulous trip to Kennedy with great guide Mau. Very knowledgeable and the itinerary that we were given was excellent and ensured we saw everything. Funny guy made the journey enjoyable. Would highly recommend.
Friendly and informative. Great communication with a well thought out itinerary. Made for a great day out with the family.
Mauricio was fantastic from start to finish. He was lighthearted and funny with lots of energy but most importantly informative. He gave a huge amount of advice for our day at Kennedy Space Centre and helped us make the most of our day. When we had a mishap with our tickets during the day he was incredible helpful and bent over backwards to ensure that our day was not impacted.
Adam was such a joy had my parents and I laughed all day this is our second grayline tour this vacation and we were happy that we had Adam again .his skills to engage the crowd are like nothing I have ever seen. Adam is a class act in a good way we highly recommend grayline and if you get Adam you sure will have a show that will make your vacation very enjoyable and memorable
