Family Snorkeling near Tortola - The overall experience was excellent! The trip was on time starting and returning to the pier. There were only 28 people on the large catamaran which made it easy to move around the boat and take in the webbing up front and benches under cover of the warm sun. Lunch with hot dogs and salads (many choices) and sandwiches were filling. Beverages, both alcoholic and non alcoholic free on demand all through the excursion was a nice touch. Snorkeling time was plentiful and we swam with turtles both large and small, a sting ray, a small shark, and myriads of colorful yellow and blue and green fish. Our party of 7 between the ages of 5 and 70 took in 2 of the 3 caves which was a new adventure and quite easy and fun to do. The admission fee was very fair for the length of the experience, the food extras, the boat ride, and the snorkeling supplies. The staff was very pleasant and helped out whenever needed. Would definitely consider booking with Aristocat again. Two other friendly people on this trip were follow up repeaters! This trip is best for anyone who enjoys swimming and snorkeling at any age they are comfortable in water and feel adventurous with limited boundaries.

An excellent day out to remember forever - We joined this trip as two couples from a cruise ship Our crew were Frencesco/Maddie and Shwan Now all I can say is the crew made us feel so welcome and a million dollars all day The bar is extremely well stocked from waters to beers and soft drinks and of course rum Lunch was lovely The catamaran is immaculate The snorkelling was great. Saw some amazing fish Saw some turtles and I even tried paddle boarding for the first time If you book with these guys you won’t be disappointed

Fabulous!!! - This was a wonderful experience! James & Maddie were amazing & made sure best experience had by all on board. We were unable to get to the Indians as wind & rough water prevailed, but instead we went to Peter Island, where I swam for 5 minutes with a turtle in his own environment! We were able to go to the caves & the snorkeling there was great. We have been on other catamaran excursions in other places & often they never put out their sails. Our captain, James, had us under sail going in & out…truly fun & so memorable. Would absolutely repeat if in the BVI again & would highly, highly recommend!!

Best Excursion Ever! - This was the best excursion ever! The crew were amazing. Other people on our cruise had there excursions cancelled due to wind and waves. Ours stayed on track and the captain was amazing! Set sail and we enjoyed every min of it. Thank you crew for a perfect day celebrating me and my wife’s 25th anniversary.

Great cruise excursion - Fantastic snorkeling! We stopped at 3 different spots and each was a unique experience. So many fish and we saw several sea turtles. The crew (Flo and Lady) were fantastic, and while we had some rain, we still had a great time! Highly recommend this company and excursion. We were cruise ship passengers and this fit nicely with our stop.
