Posted on Leah BagasMay 29, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have done a few charters before on vacations, but this was by far the best one I have ever done. If you’re in the Sarasota area, you should absolutely take this tour.Posted on Anna SextonMay 29, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Buena muy divertida recomendada al 1000Posted on Akela LloydMay 26, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Such a great experience! We had a group of 6 (3 adults and 3 teenagers) and there was ample space for all of us to sit comfortably and store our belongings. We did not use the potty but liked having the option, and we appreciated having the ability to either sit in the shade or directly in the sun. Captain Brian and First Mate Christina were wonderful! They provided a cooler, ice, and water. They also offered snorkeling gear and floaties for us to enjoy. You can tell they put a lot of thought and intention behind their service. They had can koozies and little snacks available just because! They took us to a couple beaches/sand bars as well as a safe area to go tubing behind the boat. We appreciated not having to worry about boat traffic while tubing. We are sooo grateful for the abundance of photos Captain and First Mate took of our group. We had such a great time living in the moment but it was a great surprise to receive so many awesome candid photos after our trip. Highly recommend! We would book again.Posted on Pamela FargoMay 12, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a great time on the Tortuga Boat Adventures. Captain Brian and his wife were really nice. They took my family tubing off the back of their book and then went to Midnight Pass to look for sea shells. It was a great day and they were very accommodating. Highly recommend them.Posted on Felice TannenMay 10, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great time on the boat today with Brian and Christina. Had a great boat ride to Jew fish key It was a girls day birthday celebration and I brought my dog and she had a great time too. Can’t wait to do it again with them.Posted on M PepperMay 2, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Capt Brian and Christina were amazing!!!!!!!!

We appreciate you so much and are very thankful for allowing our girls trip to be memorable.Posted on Sonia LevyMay 2, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Christina and Brian were amazing tour guides, very knowledgeable about Sarasota and its Bay Area’s. The boat is beautiful and sparkling clean. They were so flexible and catered to our wishes and needs. We had a fantastic time and highly recommend them for the next time you want to go out on a boat.Posted on Alysonn RogersApril 27, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a fantastic sunset cruise with Captain Brian & his wife Christina in Sarasota last night. What a lovely couple & their super boat ! We saw dolphins & wonderful local protected birds in their natural habitat. We went to a beautiful beach location on the gulf coast to catch a stunning sunset & to collect beautiful shells to hang on the trees as is the local custom. This was followed by a lovely drive back in the dusk to dark, taking in the evening skies & beautiful slumbering properties on the way. We can’t recommend enough 🫶🏻 Thankyou so much Brian & Christina for a memorable evening with you both xxPosted on kapi murphyApril 17, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend this boat tour! Brian and Christina were the absolute best! We are Florida natives and have beach hopped all over the state. We came to Venice beach for the first time and were a bit disappointed with the beaches as we are used to the typical white sand beaches around the anna Maria area. Brian and Christina were so nice to come down from Sarasota to pick us up on their boat and take us out. We had the most amazing time ever with them. They 100% turned our not so great trip into the best trip! We will definitely use them again on our other beach trips!Posted on britian paytonApril 12, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My group and I had an amazing time! Christina and Brian were amazing hosts, this is my second time back with them and I will definitely book again!
