5.00This was a great day! Everything was taken care of and the guides (Jay and Alex) were knowledgeable and entertaining. We saw a sea turtle, hugged and held stingrays, saw some great fish and coral while snorkeling, and got to hold starfish! Definitely worth the price! Highly recommend!
A great experience for the money. Entertaining, fun, and amazing!

5.00A truly unique experience with Jake and Alex, our captain and first mate on the trip. We chose this group because they are a locally family operated business, plus there were only 35 people on the boat, a smaller more intimate group compared to others. Jake and Alex were knowledgeable and engaging, respectful, fun, and funny. We were in the best hands and we enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you, Rowan Sports, for a fun and fabulous excursion!
Sting Rays, Snorkeling, Starfish, oh my!

5.00This was a geat experience during the trip. All the staff that we interacted with was very friendly and helpful and made us feel at ease. I also liked that you don’t need to wear water shoes. You are asked to take off your footwear upon boarding the boat which I think helps keep the boat clean. They had cold water and sodas for us. The group did not feel too large. It still felt like a personalized experience. I was worried at first because I booked last minute the night before and the booking confirmation said you should contact them 24hrs in advance to confirm hotel pickup. so I emailed them and they were quick to respond to my question and confirm us.
Great experience

5.00They picked us up at hotel. It started 9 and ended 12. It was perfect excursion to do. Stingrays are beautiful. We saw a large turtle. Tons of fish and stingray for snorkeling. I recommend to do this 9am one instead of 12 pm so that you can still do something in afternoon.
Great experience with friendly staff. A MUST Do!!!

5.00This was a great experience and I would recommend it to anyone going to the Grand Cayman. We did this as a shore excursion and they were very accommodating to cruise ship travelers. The staff was friendly, attentive and careful for our safety. We snorkeled first, then visited stingray city and then starfish beach. The one comment I would say about the entire experience is to just charge a little extra for the tour and include the photos. They are digital downloads anyway. It's kind of a rip off to have to purchase one picture for $25 or a whole package for $125. If you're a family of 12, then the package is worth it, but we were just a family of 4. Seemed a little excessive. Other than that, they took care to make sure everyone had a good experience at Stingray City which, obviously, is a highlight.
Teamwork

5.00Our ship changed its departure time which was incompatible with our reservation. My attempts to communicate were difficult due to lack of communication ability. But we showed up early, explained our situation and was taken out for the same tour with a different provider. It was great the vendors work together to make sure everyone taken care of.
We had a great time -...
