Cape May birders don't skip the boat trip! - Amazing time on the Osprey! Captain Bob and crew are pros, super knowledgeable not only about birds but also the geology and ecology of the salt marshes and coastal waters around Cape May. 10/10, we will definitely be back!

Bird watching tour review - Very knowledgeable guides. Saw a lot of shore birds that I normally wouldn’t have at the beaches. The binoculars they provided worked well. Even though the weather was windy and a bit overcast, it was really nice.

Excellent bird watching tour! - We had a great experience at a very fair price! More than 2 hours, guides were very helpful, binoculars were provided and very good quality. Biat was not crowded. We were able to spot all the birds easily and we're definitely not experts! 10 stars!
