Best experience ever!!! - First timers to Antigua and Stingray City did not disappoint, we had the best time as a family of 4 with children age 11 and 13.The guides were so friendly, attentive and fun, made us feel very safe and relaxed. They went above and beyond to allow us to interact with the rays on their terms so as we also didn’t make them feel unsafe. They were so informative, answered all our questions as well as providing us with a lot of information about the rays. Our kids thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and this was made by all the staff. Would highly recommend this experience when visiting Antigua, we were sad when it ended!

up close ray encounter - This was a really nice tour, the water was shallow and you could really experience a lot of rays up close. The guides were very helpful. And in the end, you could buy beautiful photos for 18 dollars. The rum punch on offer made it easier to make the purchase decision.

The Experience of a Lifetime! - We were hesitant to book this tourist attractions as we usually tend to stay more off the beaten path and don't like organized touristy activities especially when they involve captive animals. However, upon reading up on Stingray City we discovered that the stingrays are not captive at all, they come and go as they wish attracted by the food provided, we decided to take a chance on it... so glad we did as it turned out to be a once in a life experience! We did not go through a tour company but booked directly with Stingray City and hired a taxi to get us there and back through the concierge at out hotel. Once there, our driver dropped us off right at the check-in spot and then waited for us in the assigned parking lot during the duration of our tour. Once checked in, there was a brief wait in a designated shaded area with the opportunity to shop at a few vendor tents, as well as refreshments at a concession stand. At our tour time, we then were given a short brief with what to expect and the necessary rules and asked to sign a waiver before boarding the boat. We then took a short scenic ride to the floating dock in the stingray area, where we unloaded and got into the water. The water is about chest high in most areas and bordered by a reef for additional snorkeling if wanted. And that's when the fun started, stingrays arrived almost immediately and took my breath away. It's quite an experience having a 3 to 4 ft stingray swim up to you with more arriving and surrounding you! They are very friendly, swim up to you gently and you can pet them. Guides set up picture opportunities and take your photo that you then can purchase if you like. In addition, other guides set up in spots with buckets of squid that participants can then handfeed to the stingrays... what an exhilarating experience... I loved this so much, couldn't stop giggling! There was plenty of time in the water with the stingrays before getting back on the boat to head to shore. Once there, rum punch was served while photos were downloaded into their system, after which you were given the choice to buy the photos taken of you. In addition, there was a small gift shop with commemorative T-shirts and other things for purchase, but no one was pushy or tried to talk you into buying anything. Highly recommend!!!

They said that the transfer is included but is not true! - I believe this is misleading advertising. In the description, it clearly states: "This package includes a round trip from your hotel to Stingray City." However, this is not true. The transfer was not included. I am truly disappointed by the lack of attention TripAdvisor gives to verifying the accuracy of the services it promotes. I had meticulously planned my day, relying on the information provided. The day before the trip, when I inquired about the transfer details, I was informed that it was not included. This forced me to reorganize everything last minute, exceeding my planned budget for the day. Please correct the description to reflect the actual services provided and ensure greater transparency for future customers.

Awful experience, Guide arrogant and angry. - I really wanted to love this experience. However I felt the guides attitude and arrogance, spoilt it and we didn’t actually feel safe with them unfortunately. I’d avoid with children for this reason.
