  • Great tour. My wife and I were on the big boat with 6 other adults and 2 children. There was plenty of room on the big boat, so we were allowed to walk around more than on the smaller boats. The captain was extremely knowledgeable about the horses on the island and asked us about our preferences before leaving. Since we all wanted to see the horses, he customized the trip to primarily see the horses, and we saw plenty, up close. Great tour.
  • It was a great ride. We did the semi private tour. I would suggest speakers perhaps as we had a real hard time understanding what our guide was saying about the history of the area in the high winds created by the movement of the boat. I was in the seats closer to the guide/driver and I had a hard time hearing. No dolphins but we did see ponies. A thunderstorm rolled up on us halfway through the tour so we had to finish the tour early for safety which is understandable. Overall it was a great experience, our kids loved it.
