This was an incredible experience. Captain was funny and very good. We booked the Scream I but it was out of service so we got to enjoy the Scream II. We loved it so much we went on the Scream III right after!! Highly recommend this place!

It was a great experience! My 17-year-old daughter and I had a great time! If you like fast boats and you like doing 360s In the water, go ride the Scream Machine!

You are going to get wet and have tons of laughs and fun. The captain and first mate were very accommodating made younger members of our party who were a little scared at first more comfortable.

Captain was great. He did a great job interacting with everyone. Got to see a few dolphins and experience speed and sharp turns.

The ride was fun and unpredictable. The crew was super fun. My wife and kids had the time of there lives and seeing their joy made it the time of my life.
Justin_M, Jul 2026
Was super fun, crew was amazing, only complaint is she never texted me the picture like they said they would of all of us. Bummer but still highly recommended!

This was a great experience for both my husband and I. I'm a non-swimmer and I felt extremely safe. We had a blast.

I had an amazing time.. Fun tour we even saw dolphins. Eddie was amazing and fun. Book now it’s affordable and full of thrills.

I wasn’t sure what to expect at first but we had Mrs Kim and (I can’t remember the captains name) but they were both so much fun to hang out with! The super fun 360 turns were so much fun and he had great music blasting. There was 5 in my family (me, bf, 2 teenage boys and 10 year old daughter) and we all had smiles on our faces. Fun conversations, he would make us get wet IF we wanted to, looked for dolphins and jammed to music. Highly recommend!!

don’t wear your hair down and tie really good your glasses and your your hat and your cup and hold on tight

This was the best experience we’ve ever had. We’ve been coming here for four years now and always do some kind of attraction and this is by far the best. We did the 7pm ride and breath taking

Amazing trip. Liked the fact it was an all female crew. You go girls. The girls did an amazing job. Loved watching the dolphins play. Sunset was amazing.
Sara_B, Jun 2026
This experience was thrilling. The captain great Ana made the experience fun. If you want a fast ride and feel the thrill of a ride this is it. Also do the 7 pm one. It’s so worth it. Better than the sea screamer

We absolutely love this. We’re both adrenaline junkies and this is definitely what we were looking for and the captain and his assistant was absolutely amazing and so nice. We are definitely coming back when we come back to Panama.

We had so much fun, I was a little nervous but the spins and turns were great. Definitely wear a bathing suit because you will get wet!

Captain and the first mate were friendly and informative. Definitely worth going on the Scream Machine for a fun FAST adventure!! Even saw a dolphin when the Captain drove to a special spot. It was the last adventure of our Florida vacation and was a SUPER FINALE!!
