John was an excellent informative tour guide around the waterway. We learned about all the islands in the sound! We were able to find a number of dolphins in the sound and got a great pic in front of the Harbourtown lighthouse. I would definitely recommend this tour!

Being in the middle of pod of close to 10 dolphins was pretty exciting. Captain James was very cool to give us some knowledge on the tour of our surroundings and he has a nice pontoon. Would definitely recommend.

Captain John was wonderful. We saw plenty of dolphins and had a great experience. Highly recommend this tour and captain John.

Wonderful seeing dolphins, the beautiful scenery, and a baby dolphin... but the conversations with our Captain!! He was the best.

The Dolphin Tour was awesome. The owner of the company did the tour because Viator did not inform them of our tour. When we arrived the girl at the desk and apologized for the error and they would still make the trip happen. We were supposed to get snacks, soda and water but again the driver wasn’t informed of that. Apparently Viator is a 3rd party scheduler of this trip and takes a good portion of the profits of the trip. Contact LOW Country to schedule directly!

Within 3 minutes of the tour starting we spotted 4 dolphins! It didn’t stop there as we enjoyed cruising to other spots. So many dolphins and so much fun! Loved having the private tour and boat with just our family. Highly recommend!

Quiet morning away from crowds. Saw some dolphins and an eagle aerie. Nice small catamaran for just our family. Captain engaged the kids. Would have been 5 stars and a tip if we had been offered a snack and water.

It was truly a wonderful experience. The dolphins were very active, and Captain Ben was great. My kids thought it was the highlight of our trip.

Great trip, very informative and we got to see a few dolphins, including Muchi :) Our captain was excellent during this trip with 3 generations on board.
