We had an amazing time on this tour. Everything ran smoothly from the moment we arrived all 13 of us felt comfortable. The boat captain and his skipper made us feel welcomed and very well accommodate with drinks for adults and kids. I was especially satisfied with all the pictures stops and pictures they took of all of us as many as we wanted. I absolutely recommend taking this tour.

Captain Dan and Captain Deacon were great! The sunset was unmatched not to mention the dolphins and wildlife that showed out. Literally teared up when the dolphins made their reveal. Very relaxing and well worth the trip!

This experience had an awesome captain, beverages, music, lighthouse, sunset, and a glimpse of 2 dolphins. We were given 2 different opportunities to take pictures with the sunset and the lighthouse. We all had a great time.

Dan and Deacon were awesome, experienced captains/guides! Not only were they knowledgeable and entertaining, but they also so gracefully handled and responded to my 9 month old’s chatter while they were addressing the group. My partner, my daughter, and I had an amazing dolphin sunset tour, 100% a highlight of our vacation. Highly recommend!

I didn't think the cost was a deterrent, but I didn't want to waste a precious sunset on a mediocre experience. For me and my 14 year old daughter, the cost was less than a therapy session and even more beneficial! Ha. The sunset was lovely, the Dolphins were a treat, but the boat ride alone was my favorite. I do love the waves at the shoreline, but it's been a few years since I've been on the water, and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
They do play some music on the boat and provide simple drinks. Be sure to use the bathroom somewhere just before you get there. You will have the option of something better than a porta potty right near the very spaces parking lot; it was clean and functional. You can wear sandals or sneakers, no concerns about ruining shoes or anything getting wet. This is a very easy experience.
Our hosts were pleasant but focused on the job, not trying to constantly entertain the guests. If I could get my whole family down, I would insist we all go. Have some cash on hand to leave a much deserved tip.

Abigail_K, Jun 2026
we ended up in the emergency room and missed our reservation. They wouldn’t give us even a partial refund so that was very nice of them!!!
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Hope you are doing ok now. As for a refund we do have a 24hr cancelation policy. We are able to accommodate various situations with various resolutions if contacted directly. You booked through viator and contacted them and not us the actual tour operator. We were also not aware of the situation until hours after the tour took place. We will always offer a refund if proof of an ER visit was made. It is not uncommon for customers that do not make it to their scheduled tour to use the Sick and ER reason. Feel free to contact us directly with proof of the visit to the ER and we will gladly offer you a refund.

Both of the captions were very informative and helpful with anything the visitors needed. They made the trip very enjoyable for us. We would take another cruise with them anytime.

Even before the cruise started we were so impressed. The weather was rainy and we got text updates throughout the day updating us on any weather issues or cancelations. When we got there everyone was super friendly and when the cruise started the captain gave us some fun facts about the area and local wildlife. We had a perfect evening and saw a beautiful sunset at Sanibel. Highly recommend!

Captain Dave and Carley were incredible! They were attentive to our needs, and were well-versed in the Ft. Myers wildlife. We had a magical evening, capped off with a flower moon and a pack of dolphins that gave quite the show.
Thank you to the dynamic duo that gave us the perfect last night in Florida.
