What a wonderful morning with Dreamlander Tours! Capt Kieran was friendly, knowledgeable, and full of interesting stories about the area, wildlife, and local history. We saw manatees, dolphins, and found beautiful shells, making it an unforgettable experience. The pace was perfect, and we appreciated how much the captain shared while still allowing us to simply enjoy the beauty around us. This was one of the highlights of our Marco Island girls' trip, and we would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting the area! read more

We were originally on the fence about booking this tour, but I am so glad we did!! Kieran was our tour guide and was super accommodating with us. If you have kids, they provide them with life vests and such! We saw a lot of dolphins, pelicans, osprey's, manatees and even saw an Eagle Ray pop out of the water! Kieran had a lot of information about the life around us and even had some Dolphins ride the wave behind our boat! It was awesome. Thank you Kieran, this was a great family experience. read more

We had a great experience as a family with our two kids (10 and 7) fishing with Kieran during our visit to Marco Island. Kieran was an absolutely fantastic guide - he was very knowledgeable & helpful, and most importantly, he was a lot of fun! Our kids loved him and thought he was "the best" and very funny. We caught a lot of fish (5+ different species), and when we weren't actively fishing, we went shelling and observed sea turtles & dolphins inbetween! Boat was clean, always felt safe, etc. Highly recommend, and ask for Kieran!!! read more

We booked this last minute . Captain Kieran hit all 5 asks that we have. See dolphins - check, see manatees- check, find great shells to take home- check, catch fish - big check .

We had a phenomenal boat tour today with Captain Kieran. We saw a manatee, about 20 dolphins and found some incredible shells. Kieran was so knowledgeable, accommodating and let us do whatever we wanted to do, customizing the tour to whatever made us happy. We said we wanted to see manatees and dolphins and boy did we! My daughter and I had an unbelievable day. Thanks Captain Kieran! Sally and Katie read more

Went out with Kieran from Dreamland tours and it was the best fishing experience we ever had. This is our 2nd time fishing Marco island and fish often in the West Palm Area. I bought ny 11 and 13 yo boys who are familiar with fishing and we had a blast. Starting with some snapper and a decent sized snook and a dozen or so we decided to seek some Goliath grouper. My boys caught 1 each and had so much fun. That would have been enough if a day, but after we made a pit stop to do some shelling on a private beach we had a little time left and our amazing Capt Kieran brought us to a spot to find some sharks. We didn't catch any sharks but a 75lb Tarpon. It was a 10 minute fight, 3 jumps later and Kiedan taking the pole a few times to ensure I did t lose the fish of my lifetime. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Kieran was so friendly and patient with the kids, having kids of his own He took the time to teach them and me about fishing, knot tying. Fishing isnt always guaranteed, but I am confident to say u will always have an amazing captain with him. We said we definitely have to go on his boat again when we come to Marco Island, but we might have to come to Marco Island just to go on his boat again. Can't recommend highly enough. read more

We took our kids fishing and Captain Kieran exceeded our expectations. First, we had dolphins following our boat and jumping like Flipper. Then we spotted Manatees. Next he hooked us up with two perfect fishing spots and caught plenty of fish including small hammerhead and bonnet head sharks. Overall, this was an a-plus experience. Captain Kieran knows the waters, the hotspots, and is very friendly and can make a novice fisherman feel at ease. read more

We book a private sunset cruise with Dreamlander every January. We are amazed at how consistent they are in giving us the best boating experience. This week, we had Kieran as our captain and once again, we had a great time. He was very open to changing our plan when we happened upon a large group of dolphins frolicking around the boat that we just wanted to sit and watch. When we found a new spot to watch the sunset - different from other locations we've done - he simply turned off the engines and we watched all the colors in silence. It was beautiful. We highly recommend Dreamlander and Captain Kieran. read more

We had so much fun. Highlight of our trip. Kieran did an amazing job. We saw so many dolphins and collected a lot of shells. Highly recommend. read more

I called last minute looking for a private charter and Dakotah was so helpful with answering all my questions.

Thomas was our captain for the day and he was so helpful even met us in the parking lot to help us find a spot. Such a knowledgeable captain and he explained so much to us from local wildlife, history and the water in the area. Our kids had a blast shelling and watching the dolphins play around the boat.

Great day of combo fishing/eco tour. Our guide Trad did a great job. He was knowledgeable. He was also patient with the younger kids helping them fish. We had an wonderful experience, from seeing dolphins, to fishing, shelling and the ride through the islands. read more

My mother and I did the 4 hour shelling tour. We had the best time together and Captain Thomas was the catalyst. He was so entertaining and knowledgeable. He is a walking Wikipedia. He knew tons of facts about the animals and birds. He knew where to see manatee and dolphins. He also knew where to find beautiful, unique shells. He helped us hunt for them. We found sixty some Sanddollars. We didn't even have to ask him to take pictures and videos for us. He just did it and encouraged us to pose. I was wowed and amazed. I can't say enough praise for Dreamlander Tours and captain Thomas. This was our second 4 hour Shelling tour with Dreamlander Tours and we will book again next year. True it is pricey, but it's worth every dollar. read more

I wanted to make certain that I gave Dreamlander Tours, specifically our captain Cristian, a 5-star rating. My wife, daughter and her boyfriend took a Custom Tour and were absolutely thrilled at the experience. From sailing by the Dome Homes, to getting some dolphins to race behind us, to visiting two beautiful white-sand (boat only) beaches....we were thrilled. Cristian is a great captain and a nice local young man who knows the waters around Marco Island, and was quite impressive at the helm! Overall it was an outstanding day - well worth the cost and time. I would recommend these guys to anyone who wants a great time on the water. We are already trying to figure out the next time to book! Thanks all. read more

This past weekend, my family and I experienced a custom tour with Christian as our Captain. He was awesome! From his professionalism to his ability to drive a boat. We all felt very safe with him. He was extremely knowledgeable of all of the beaches he took us to as well as the famous Domes. Our experience was 10/10. We will definitely be booking another tour and requesting Christian as our Captain. read more

We had the best boat tour with Captain Thomas Schmidt! We saw several dolphins right up by the boat and lots of birds! Captain Thomas was very informational, while still keeping the tour lighthearted and fun! The private tour was worth every penny! We will definitely be returning! read more

Captain Christian was amazing. He's lived here his whole life and knows the areas like the back of his hand.

So much fun on our fishing tour! Our guide Christian customized our trip to what we wanted to see and do. We caught and released (our request) a wide variety of fish, and got to enjoy seeing dolphins playfully jumping in the wake. Many wildlife sightings enhanced our beautiful day on the water. I can't praise Christian's efforts and friendly assistance enough. We rate it the #1 thing to do in Marco Island. read more

Went on a private three hour boat tour today with Luke, who was our captain. I've never met anybody so knowledgeable and competent in the water, he took my mother and I out and showed us everything we wanted to see. Completely competent we felt safe every moment. I really don't see any reason to use any other charter service. If you have young kids, if you have teens..this is a place for you. Worth every penny and very affordable for the level of service and personalization. You can literally go anywhere. So much fun read more

Exceeded our expectations, we had Captain Dakotah and he was informative and accommodating. I would suggest this company to anyone traveling that is wanting more of a personal experience watching dolphins as they only allow 6 to a boat in comparison to the larger company's with 15-20. The Captain was able to get us onto several pods of dolphins and got several good videos. My wife and I went on the 2 hour tour and it was worth every penny. We will come back! read more

What an awesome trip! One of the highlights of our two week trip to Captiva and Marco Island. Captain Dakotah took myself, my husband and our 4 kids, 6 and under on a 3 hour dolphin and sea shell tour. He took to see literally DOZENS of dolphins in the beautiful open waters, super pods of dolphins! It was MAGICAL. These dolphins came up to our boat! Literally within inches of the boat and paraded us. Dakotah was patient, kind, knowledgeable and awesome with my kids. He took us to a really awesome island with a really cool beach and thousands and thousands of gorgeous and colorful and varied shells (see my picture of our shells we collected below). We are are grateful to Dakotah for taking us on such a wonderful boating experience! Also, thanks for taking such great photos of our family!The memories will last a lifetime! read more

Captain Thomas was amazing! His knowledge was very impressive about the region and wildlife-we come to Naples every February and this was one of the best tours we have experienced! read more

We called last minute to see if there was even any openings available and these guys worked out their schedule to accommodate us. So happy they did schedule us, this was a great experience for adults and kids. We did the 3 hr tour which included the Dolphins, 10000 islands ( Dome Home ), and Shelling. For somebody who has spent a lot of time on boats this wasn't just another boat ride, Capt Dakotah grew up and lives in the Marco / Naples area and is very knowledgeable of the area, the environment, and the local wildlife. From the time we got on the boat we had a great time. Capt Dakotah was able to get the Dolphins to ride our Rip Curl and put on fantastic show. For wild Dolphins to chase a boat jumping and flipping they must really love it, almost looks like He's smiling in the picture. The Mangrove islands and the History of the Dome Home was just as interesting as watching e Dolphins. And if you're into Shelling, we'll this is going be your private Paradise, more shells and variety than you can imagine! Thanks Again Capt Dakotah and Talia ! We will definitely book again when we come back! read more
