The staff is wonderful! We got stuck behind traffic, and the manager was very kind on the phone when I called to say we would be a few minutes late. He gave amazing instructions of where to find the location and where to park. They made an exception to delay take off time until we got there. So kind! Captain Karlee was also fantastic. She was so welcoming when we showed up and did a great job on the tour. She pointed out dolphins, gave great info about all the things we were passing, and was so friendly. A 10/10 experience and would absolutely do it again and suggest this to anyone!
