Fantastic Jekyll Dolphin Tour - Comfortable cruise with an awesome crew, who made it informative and entertaining. LOTS of dolphins! Several children aboard who had lots of fun, but it was a bit long for the littles.

Rare viewing of tons of dolphins - Went out on a Monday when others were closed and even though only 7 people signed up. It turned out to be an amazing day where we saw multiple huge pods of dolphins. We even saw some tail slapping. Enjoyed the boat ride and historical information as well. Could have done with fewer corny jokes.

A great experience for all! - We had family visiting & this tour did not disappoint! Our guides were knowledgeable & entertaining and the dolphins were plentiful. Even if the dolphins hadn’t shown up, the tour would have been great - very knowledgeable & provided great history!

Lots of dolphins, good price - We saw dolphins everywhere! While its not guaranteed to see them every trip, we saw a pod of 5 and a calf with them. The crew was great and we highly suggest them. Also, we were allowed to take our stroller on the boat, which was very nice.

History and Wildlife - It was great being out on the water. Nice boats and accommodations. Capt Dave and Dale were a fun crew. It was very educational and I enjoyed the history lesson also. I learned a lot. And of course there were dolphins! It was fun to see how the wildlife interacted with us. Great tour!

Great so nice! Beautiful! - Paublo and Juan name attempting if wrong my apologies because you were terrific!!! Entertaining and those dophins were showing off for us. Lots of interesting dolphin info. Lovely time so glad we did this. Even if we’d not seen dolphins I enjoyed the scenery and the boat ride. Thank you! But…. seeing dolphins is the best. But guides can’t guarantee what or where so just enjoy! I only have videos but here a little taste screenshot.
