There were 8 of us in the boat, but I think it may have been possible to have a couple more. After checking in at the food shack Captain Brian directed us to the boat that was waiting for us in the river. We purchased our tickets online and we also had waivers to sign before we even got there. Captain Brian pointed out points of interest as we sailed down the river. My favorite part was "bird island". Hundreds of birds..... big ones, little ones, colorful ones, and noisy ones. It was so neat. Once we got back to the landing we spent the remainder of our tour waiting for the sun to go down. It was beautiful. We also saw a few alligators. None seemed to be very big, but who knows what the water was hiding. Captain Brian was disappointed that there weren't more gators for us to see, but he figured they were all off elsewhere looking for "love" as it is now mating season. I would definitely recommend this tour.

If you're trying to decide whether this dolphin tour is worth booking, the answer is absolutely…read moreyes. Captain Jim and First Mate Brandon made this one of the highlights of our trip. They were knowledgeable, engaging, funny, and genuinely invested in making sure everyone had a great experience. From the moment we boarded, they checked in with guests throughout the tour to make sure everyone was comfortable and had everything they needed. The tour includes complimentary beverages, including water, beer, and wine, which made the ride even more relaxing. The boat was comfortable, the pace was enjoyable, and there was plenty of time to take in the scenery. The best part, of course, was seeing the dolphins. Captain Jim knew exactly where to take us and shared fascinating information about dolphin behavior, their habits, and the local ecosystem while we watched them in their natural habitat. It felt like much more than a sightseeing tour--it was educational without ever feeling like a lecture. If you're wondering whether you'll actually see dolphins, we saw several during our trip, and the crew did an excellent job positioning the boat so everyone had a chance to enjoy the experience and take photos. Whether you're visiting as a couple, with family, or with friends, I highly recommend this tour. It's relaxing, informative, well-organized, and worth every penny. I would absolutely book it again.
