It's a great time. I was cautious at first, as my daughter did the activity, not me. She was first to go out of 11 people, and I stayed on shore to wait for her. The captain and 1st mate were wonderful and made her at ease. They were very friendly and easy to talk to. My daughter, after her experience, told me it was a great time. This was on her bucket list and her experience was phenomenal. Would recommend these guys guys for the experience. BTW...the photographer was awesome. I bought the photos and gopro video for my daughter's experience and he did a wonderful job. Thanks guys

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re glad you had a great experience with us. We’d love to have you back again soon!
The captain and crew were great. They explained everything clearly and had fun with out photo shoot. Smooth liftoff and landing. Had knee surgery 3 months ago and this was a wonderful experience highly recommended.
Great first time experience for my 13 year old grandsons who went together. They loved it and the captain and crew member were terrific!!! Highly recommend this company.
Absolutely Amazing! The crew was super friendly, funny, and made the whole experience worth every penny. Definitely recommend!
The experience is one in a lifetime!! This is completely safe and the guys that guide you thru the whole experience are extremely professional and customer service oriented, they were great at making everyone comfortable and they are super funny! My family of five (mom 61, sons 16 and 19, husband 48 and myself 42 and pretty scare at high adrenaline activities (LOL) had a blast!!! Do not even doubt in taking this awesome tour! Thank you guys for helping create a great family experience! See you next time! Saturday 4th of July 2026 4pm 😊
It was amazing, the captain and mate were great. Just relax and listen to the instructions and you'll have a blast
Great people. Great ride. Saw whale. Turtles and manatees. We went on the 8am which i recommend so it isn’t unbearably hot out on the boat and in the air.
We felt completely safe the entire time. Experienced and friendly captain and crew. They took lots of pictures for us and sent us up with a Go Pro. Great memories! Beautiful ride! Gorgeous views of Anna Maria Island! Highly recommend!
Loved it! Seeing the Island from high above is amazing. Definitely recommend getting their picture packet. It’s worth it. Jared gets really good shots of you. Thank you for making AMI even more magical!
It was so fun! I’m terrified of sharks, but the rush of excitement crushed that. My cousin and I had a lot of fun.
Funniest thing ive done since ive been on the island. definitely something you can do every year. I had a blast and i definitely would do it again.
I was so scared going to parasail. We got on the boat. The captain and his friend Matt was very much into safety first! I trust that it would be safe as soon as I heard them talking. Definitely coming back for rides every year or twice a year now.
Joey and Jordan were super nice and patient. They really made us feel comfortable and safe. It was a great experience. Highly recommend! .
It was a very cool experience and was super fun! Captain and Co Captain were very friendly and formative, I would definitely do this again.
Make sure you have Matt and the Mate he had on May 27, 2026 at 2 pm!! Those two give the very best experience for tandem parasailing!! I wouldn’t want anyone else for this adventure!!! They were remarkable!Matt
10/10 recommend! This was my second time flying. Nothing beats the spectacular views AMI has. The staff were excellent.
Great company and crew. Made it as easy as possible. We are rookies and it was easy for us! Great views and lots of manatees and dolphins.
They canceled the trip because of maintenance and I have not received my refund they said I would get!
My 6 year old son and I had the most amazing time! We both had butterflies but the crew made it so easy and fun! I was really surprised and excited by the fun photos that they took of us! We will be going every time we are here!
