It was a great experience! The pickup was a smooth process and the van was nice. The boat was comfortable and the ride to and from the bay was fun. We all enjoyed making the water glow while we swam in it! Our guide was great and provided interesting facts about the area and what makes the water glow.

Our whole group loved this excursion! Our captain Jordan was informative and kind (we had 4 children in our group) and we loved the bioluminescence experience! Would definitely recommend the private tour, our group of 8 was very happy.

    Thank you for your feedback! So happy you enjoyed the trip!!

    Amazing experience!

    We are a group of 4, on a girls trip. We looked at all the options for the bioluminescent bay tour but most were very expensive just to be on a large crowded boat. The 4 of us were able to book a beautiful and private charter boat with an awesome tour guide and split the overall cost for the same as we would have individually paid with other group charters. The experience was a once in a lifetime and worth every penny. The bioluminescence was so bright and beautiful! I highly recommend this tour. I will be bringing my whole family back to see this and will most definitely use this company again!

    It was so cool that my kids didn't even believe it was real until they moved the water themselves! The driver was nice and the boat was perfect!

    It was an amazing experience to see the water light up. I would recommend this to anyone who comes to the Caymans

    It was ok. The person who took us on the boat was nice

    It was fun. But the pictures you advertised make it seem like a large area is lit up. Not that you have to go in and move to see the colors

    Wonderful Excursion

    Definitely the highlight of my trip. It was our captain’s first week as a captain and he did a great job.

    Such an amazing tour and Travis was a great Captain/Tour Guide. Swimming the the bioluminescent bay was such a cool experience. Highly recommend. Went on the tour with two adults and two kids, ages 12 and 10.

    Amazing tour and guide!
