5.00Loved our eco tour! I am a local and still learned so much about the history and wildlife in the keys. Henry personalized the tour to the needs of my family, and was extremely nice to us. Definitely worth the price.

5.00My husband and I took our German Shepherd out for a half day with Captain Meg. She was great! Very helpful and patient while our dog got acclimated. We were dodging rain, but Meg masterfully tracked the storms to help us avoid raindrops and make the most of our time. Highly recommend!
Great booking

5.00Myself, my husband, and four sons ages 11-17 took this half day trip to get out on the water, and we loved this boat outing! Henry quickly made us feel welcome and his knowledge of boating and the area made me feel like we were in great hands. He was so knowledgeable about the wildlife, and the Keys in general, and knew all the places to take us. We snorkeled at the lighthouse, saw tons of birds, a crocodile, and so many other things👍🏼 this was a great way to end our trip to the Keys!
Simply magnificent and unmissable

5.00We had a great time on our Half Day Private Boat Tour with Jessie. Jessie was super friendly, knowledgeable a good boat captain and tour guide. I took the family and we snorkeled on Alligator Reef and Chicks and Hens reef. We saw a large dolphin pod off Alligator reef and we stopped in the mangroves to see a manatee just hanging out under the mangrove trees. A fun boat ride to each location and really good to be on a private tour with Jessie. Thanks Jessie we had a great time with you on the private boat tour around points in Islamorada. We found that a number of locals were familar with you too ... you are popular.
