We had so much fun! Racoons are so cute! We even saw dolphins and stringrays. Captain Eli was very attentive, professional, and friendly. He did his best for us to enjoy this trip. I highly recommend this tour and Captain Eli!
One small thing, take mosquitos repellent to the Racoon Island! ;))

We had a great day on the water. The boat was amazing and the captain (Ray) was the greatest. We had a group of six and we had plenty of room on the boat. It had a restroom on board and it was stocked with ice and an extra large cooler for all your drinks. We never felt rushed and was able to just to take our time and enjoy the Miami waterways. I would highly recommend this company. Feeding the raccoons was the best!!! They love water and marshmellows. 😉

What a fun review to receive, Melissa. We’re so glad your group had plenty of room to relax, enjoy the Miami waterways, and take the day at your own pace. Captain Ray will be happy to know he made such a great impression, and it sounds like the raccoons definitely stole part of the show too. Thank you for such a thoughtful recommendation.

Ray Morales was our captain, he was awesome and the whole 4 hour trip was great! We had our kids and grandkids from 19months - 31 with my husband and I. Ray was just great, the scenery was 5 star and feeding the raccoons was so fun!

We’re so glad you had a fun and full experience at Racoon Island, Olena. Seeing dolphins, stingrays, and raccoons all in one trip is hard to beat. Captain Eli will be happy to know his efforts made the day even better for you. Thanks for sharing your adventure with others.

Rented out this boat for my birthday weekend, beautifully maintained & wonderful captain to take you out on a boat tour around the city.
Thank you to our wonderful captain Duniel !!! Also, the customer service was amazing from Adiel!! Thank you!!
Our group was able to have a great time w Orlando. We anchored near an island to swim, go ashore and just enjoy the sun.
The captain and mate were first class. Very knowledgeable and Friendly.
I would highly recommend this Captain and cruise around the Miami area.
Eli was a wonderful captain. He was accommodating, friendly and fun. I can’t recommend this trip enough! Amazing value for the price.
As a Christmas gift from our sons, we received this wonderful 3-hour boat tour. We started the tour at 10 AM and we were lucky to have as captain Duniel. He was very friendly and very professional. He knew so much about Miami and many buildings around the bay and downtown. We were so pleased and had a great time, do not even know when the 3 hours ended. We strongly recommend Duniel as a tour guide and your captain.
Great New Year’s Day tour around Miami with Yuri. We soaked up the sun, saw the sights and lazed around the harbor while Yuri, a nice and easy going guide, expertly guided the boat.
We had a great afternoon with Captain Eduardo! We were able to feed some raccoons and then swim somewhere else. Eduardo is very professional and knows the surroundings very well.

Merci beaucoup pour votre retour ! Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez passé une excellente après-midi avec le capitaine Eduardo. Il connaît effectivement très bien la région et aime partager ces moments uniques comme la rencontre avec les ratons laveurs et la baignade dans des endroits calmes. Ce sera un plaisir de vous accueillir de nouveau à bord !
