5.00Our families (9 people, 4adukts, 5 kids 4-11) were looking for a boat excursion while on spring break. This was a highlight of our trip (BTW, I have very high standards!!!). The boat was clean, beautiful, spacious, safe, and extra shade! The crew was polite, flexible, patient, safe, and informed. We swam with pigs (quick with less cruise crowds), fished a little for my son, swam with green turtles, hung out in warm waters of a remote island, and enjoyed rum punch, sodas, bottled waters, and snacks all provided on board! A great time and it’s a 10/10 would book again - but for longer!

5.00Capt Leslie and his 1st mate Amari are amazing. We booked this trip for our family to enjoy the day on the water. It was beyond our expectations. The boat is beautiful and has so much room and seating for everyone. We had some elderly parents and they were safe and comfortable and plenty of shade. Leslie guided us around and shared stories of all the sites. We visited a private island, went snorkeling, fed the pigs and had lunch at an awesome beach bar where we played volleyball and enjoyed ourselves. It was an unbelievable day that we will all never forget. Thank you captain 🧑✈️! You are the best!
Capt Leslie made our day!!

5.00We took a half day tour with the Platinum Boat Tours. The crew were great! We were 17 people and made the day memorable. The were telling us about each hpuse and building on the ride. 1st stop was Gilligan's Island where we snorkeled and walked the island. We hit Rose Island and swam with the pigs. They brought us to see the sea turtles, stopped at peacock Island and ended with snorkeling. They provided kid and adult beverages and snacks. The helped the older family members and the rest of the family on and out of the boat. They also had wifi for us. A must do with this crew!
A family’s day in the Bahamas with Platinum Boat Tours

5.00We took a half day Rose Island cruise with our family which had a wide range of ages, kids from 6 years old to grandparents in their 70s. The crew made sure everyone was able to get safely on and off the boat, were friendly and provided great service and information about all of our stops. We even got to see Michael Jordan‘s house. Out first stop was at Gilligan Island to swim and walk the beach. From there we went to Rose Island where only some of our family wanted to swim with pig. They stopped at one of the resorts, which had a beach on the other side of the dock where the younger kids could swim and play in the sand while the others went to the pigs. From there, we went to see sea turtles. We saw a bunch, but you cannot swim in the water with them. After the sea turtles we went to Peacock Beach. Some of the family stayed in the water to swim while others took a hike up to the top of a small hill to see wild peacocks. There was a beautiful view from there top. We left there and went to a reef for snorkeling. They provided equipment and life vests for all. The crew also was in the water with us while snorkeling, which made us feel safer with so many kids in our group. The reef was beautiful with tons of fish and very colorful. It’s a great spot to spend some time. They had snacks, beer, sodas, water, and delicious rum punch throughout the day. Leslie, Allan, and Amari were a fantastic crew. We highly recommend this tour company and would go with them again on our next visit the Bahamas.

5.00From the moment we arrived on the boat we we were treated with great customer service and hospitality. Captain Les and crew were very knowledgeable and gave us a tour of the boat and explained what we were going to be doing that day. Throughout the entire trip Captain Les made sure that safety was a priority. We were able to see pigs, turtles and many fish on our tour. The trip was very enjoyable and we would definitely do it again.
