Five Star Experience
We had an absolutely amazing bay fishing experience as a family! The atmosphere on the water was relaxed and fun, and the guides were awesome—knowledgeable, patient, and made the whole trip enjoyable from start to finish. We caught plenty of fish, shared lots of laughs, and created some unforgettable memories together. It was the perfect mix of adventure and quality family time, and we would absolutely do it again—highly recommend!

Last minute booking worked great
Crew was very knowledgeable,friendly and humorous and added some fun to the trip ! It was interesting to hear about the channel having been dredged for the natural gas shipping as there was a ship in view of our accommodations that I had just earlier in the day searched to see what what type of cargo it carried . I had no idea that the small shrimp boats spent 30 days at sea

Time and $ Well-Spent
Excellent tour! Ship captain not only ‘ followed the script’ but he was constantly on the lookout for extras. Thanks to him we not only got a great tour and learned interesting history and current developments but also got to see interesting wildlife. Well worth the $$!

This was the perfect...
This was the perfect experience for the whole family. From my youngest being 3 and oldest daughter 16, everyone had a blast. Hannah and captain Joe were so friendly and helpful. They made sure we had everything we needed the whole time. The burgers and hotdogs were amazing. I would definitely do this again and would recommend them to everyone! 🖤

Amazing experience… boat...
Amazing experience… boat driver was entertaining and gave us great facts and places to visit, we saw an incredible amount of dolphins and the sand dollar hunting was amazing. Highly recommend
P.S. can the boat driver please send us the pictures he took at sunset, we totally forgot to get them from him thank you!

Building success
José’ was great. Fantastic step by step process and basic principles of sand building. Our group had a great experience and would recommend it to anyone. There is bending, standing and getting water into buckets through out the hour. Great for adults and older kids. Get onboard and start your sand building experience.

We had an absolute blast...
We had an absolute blast on the Banana Boat ride! The staff was super friendly, made sure everyone felt safe, and gave us the perfect mix of speed and fun- even turned it down a bit to accommodate our youngest daughter. Great for both kids and adults – definitely a highlight of our trip. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something exciting on the water!
Also, wanted to give a huge thanks for fishing me out after my unexpected Olympic “dive” off the boat dock! I may have lost my dignity and a croc, but thanks to y’all, I was out quickly. Your rescue skills were faster than my fall—which is saying something. 🤣
We definitely will be back!

Awesome tour
Friendly crew, great experience all around and was way more than expected. The dolphin sightings were plentiful and the firework show at the end was a wonderful sight.
The captain plays a variety of music while on board the ship, keeping the fun going throughout the entire ride.

First time jet skiing
It was absolutely amazing, I’m someone who typically doesn’t like to be that deep in the ocean but whilst on the jet ski I felt no danger at all and after watching how the instructor rode his jet ski I just tried copying what he’d do and it all came naturally for me I was standing, laying down, making hard turns and everything at full speed having the time of my life, the instructor also went out of his way to get video recordings and photos of me and my partner while we were jet skiing which was really cool of him as well as him just being a really cool dude, the only negative part of the experience I could say which was more so my fault and I didn’t even notice till later on is be careful not the let the handlebars chafe on your skin while driving, had been aware of it though and readjusted how I was holding the handles it likely wouldn’t have happened, but the whole experience itself was AMAZING!

Great Easter Sunday Walking Tour
Considering that it was Easter Sunday the schedule was challenging for what the activities we typically enjoy since many were closed. That’s our fault for not thinking ahead.
Our guide also had the challenge of following up our tour fromthe afternoon before which was great but more shopping, sightseeing, and food & drink tasting.
That sad, George did a remarkable job of filling our day with many activities that we could only have done on Easter Sunday.
We got to step into a couple Easter church services that were a real blessing for us. We found a great coffee shop in the afternoon that was delicious.
George was very knowledgeable about historical sites and smoothly paced us through many of the different period of Thessaloni history. We didn’t repeat anything from the day before and the tour - timing considered - was absolutely perfect.
George was timely in meeting us. Flexible with our schedule. Very gracious. Worked very hard to make the trip special.
We highly recommend this activity and George is a great asset to customizing the tour for you.
