Sit in the back for most fun. You will get wet but feel safe! The music was perfect. The tour guide was cool and shared enough info about the area without talking too much. Also offered to take a photo of the family at the end. That was a nice touch. Please tip them!

The experience was great, and the people who provided the excursion were VERY helpful. I had to call the people at the Thiller boat ride and their customer service was 100%, I got lost trying to find the port it left from and the young lady who answered the the phone was kind enough to stay on the phone with me and guide me right to where the boat was docked. The guys operating the boat were great 👍🏾 and one of them personally came and let us know that we would get the wettest because where we were seated — and he was RIGHT! We did donuts in the water and with every turn we got wet, we also drove at exhilarating speeds. It was definitely worth it.
TIP:
If you want to get soaked, sit in the back on the right-hand side, LAST ROW. Also, if you book the 7:30 ride, you’ll catch the sunset 🌇 Enjoy

What a fun way to see Miami from the water on a high speed boat while listening to some great music. The tour takes you along the inland waters to see some amazing homes and the overall port. A venture not to be missed. :)

It was fun. I'm not sure if it's because it was the last trip and staff may been tired, but it could've been a little more energized. Some things were explained and we were already passing by, leaving no photo opportunity.

Sadly! Our boat ride got canceled due to the weather but we did get to ride only for a few minutes. It was very fun for the few minutes we did have. Pretty pricey not sure if that’s the best but Viator gave us our refund right away! I appreciate that! If you don’t want to get extremely wet, DO NOT SIT IN THE LAST ROW lol!

Be warned! They will cancel your tour and reschedule if they don't meet minimum numbers. Which is no good if you have plans later in the day!! Luckily my tour ran in the end but they warned to me it may not happen. Good tour but not that fast and in the sun all the time

Hamza_A, May 2026
The experience is excellent. However, the driver called Mr Alex? was quite rude and condescending, and needs to work on his manners. One of the seat cushions was on the ground, and he made us transfer to that seat after picking it up and placing it there after stating "its a boat, its always going to be dirty"
If hygiene is not important for you, great. But don't force this on other people.
The other guide and co pilot were great, and narrated the experience well. But the driver (alex) was unprofessional

Drove 45 minutes paid tolls and parking only to be told that they wouldn't be giving the tour because they didn't have 15 people. They didn't tell me this when I spoke on the phone an hour and a half earlier that maybe I should come for the earlier tour because they didn't have enough people. I also got a text a half hour before that I need to hurry to check in!! Unbelievably frustrating waste of time and money!!
