Best boat tour around!!! - The boat was so nice. It fit our 10 person family just great. The ride was beautiful out to the sand bar. The waves were insane that day, but our captain never made me feel unsafe at any point of the day. He was so helpful and so knowledgeable. He brought us cold drink for the trip. We brought snacks and ate on the boat while we hit the different attractions. All of the gear is provided for snorkeling, you can bring your own of course, but there's not need. The snorkeling area he took us too was beautiful. He helped us off and on the boat if we needed it. The canopy kept us cool during the times we were anchored. I wish I could remember the name of our captain, but I'm so jet lagged at the moment that everything is blending together. But the dock was easy to find, he provided us with his cell to contact him at any point. He was such a safe driver too, not sure how he kept the boat so even-keeled during those large waves, but he did. We asked to make a quick detour on our way back to the dock to look at a house on the canal my fam is interested in buying. We didn't stop or get out of the boat, but it was sweet of him to drive by for us. Overall sooooooo amazing.

Great experience - Wonderful excursion. We did a half-day tour with stingrays, snorkel, then starfish point. We had two young children (4 y/o and 1.5 y/o) and felt completely safe despite the waters being a bit choppy that day. Our tour guide was very flexible and accommodating to what we wanted to do (spent less time snorkeling and more time at the starfish point) due to the kids. The boat was clean and our guide was very informative. There was a slight mix up as we had registered to be picked up at our hotel, but they thought we were going to meet at the dock. However, as soon as I called, they arrived to pick us up at the hotel within about 7 minutes.

Pryce is right! - Our family had an incredible day on the water in Grand Cayman with Pryce. Our first stop at Stingray Beach was amazing. We had our own stingray thanks to Pryce and each of us got the opportunity to hold and interact with it, which was a lot of fun for all of us. The snorkeling spot was great as well as the Starfish beach. Perhaps more impressive than his incredible level of service on the boat, Pryce came out of his way to pick us up due to a port change by our cruise ship. It saved us time and made the morning a lot less stressful than it could have been. He also gave us a great restaurant reco for an afternoon family lunch! Thank you so much for an incredible experience.

Amazing experience - We had such a great time! We got to tour with Luke today and he took such great care of our family. We had our 14 month old baby and we brought our own life jacket for her. Luke met us close to where our cruise ship dropped off and was very prompt. There was a coffee shop 30 seconds away so we grabbed coffee. Luke was very accommodating and friendly and explained a lot about the island and wild life. We went to see the string ray, star fish and snorkel! Luke was great 👍 thank you!

Incredible Experience - What an incredible experience!
Pryce was my Captain & Guide - he was so knowledgeable and passionate about his profession and I felt in very safe hands because actually I was a little nervous about being in the water with the powerful stingrays which all seemed to love being with him
He helped me hold one of the biggest ones called Darth Vader and kindly took loads of amazing pics and video
It’s a memory I will cherish although I’d love to do it again!
Booking the private excursion is worth the money for the quality & ease of it all and I was happy to add a nice tip to my Captain too as the service really was top notch
Until the next time :)

Awesome Experience - We had an amazing day with our Captain Price. He was a pleasure to be with. Price is very knowledgeable about the area. He made the experience unforgettable.
We were on a cruise so we were asked to meet at the Hard Rock Cafe. It has since been closed. I would suggest another pick up location for cruise ship passengers just to avoid any confusion. Our taxi driver to and from the yacht club was also excellent. The port area was extremely busy since there were 4 ships in port that day.
Thanks very much for an incredible day and experience.

Fun afternoon with Stingrays - Fun afternoon with stingrays—
Highlights: beautiful boat, great weather,driver was a stingray expert, such a unique experience for my kids and husband/me to interact with and hold stingrays! Final positive was that I was glad we splurged for the private boat so we didn’t have to wait until everyone on the boat was ready to leave…
Other things to note: we did 3 stops - stingray city, snorkeling, and starfish park. The latter two stops were “meh”- snorkeling was cool but water was choppy (still a cool experience) but starfish place was underwhelming and they brought the starfish in from the deeper part.
Also, stingray city was packed with boats/cruise ship tourists jam-packed into boats. It was still worth it, but not quite what I was expecting.
Overall, I’d recommend it to be on the water and hang out with cute stingrays. But not 5 stars given the above and the high price ($850 for 3.5 hours…. The time on the water was more like 3 hours).
