What travelers are saying
Great Experience.
The guide Andrew made this tour fantastic. He was so careful to include everyone on the tour and make sure all their needs were met. My husband had surgery a couple weeks before the tour and was not able to get into the water for any of the activities, so Andrew made sure he brought a starfish and stingray to him at the edge of the boat and brought him closeup to see the fish feeding at the snorkel spot as well. He went above and beyond to make sure he had a good experience. I would recommend this company and tour to anyone booking an excursion in Grand Cayman.
The tour was incredible. My kids loved it. I would highly recommend it.
The tour guides on the boat were great and the various stops were a lot of fun, but the tour itself was very disorganized. There was an initial delay, and we were told to be back at 12:30 for a 1:00 departure. When my family and I arrived at 12:30, there was nobody there. Luckily, a guide from another tour company called our person, who came running back to get us and rushed us to a fully loaded van that would have taken off without us had we not caught it in time. Then, when we got to the boat, there was a delay getting the previous tour off and our group on. It was like herding cattle. All of this led to a rush at the end of the day to get to the final tender before our ship departed. We should have had plenty of time.
Tour was over crowded in my opinion. The snorkeling was average - not that much to see. Starfish area was covered with jelly fish so we all go stung. Sting Ray area was the best part but again only one guide holding the stingray and took forever waiting to see it so we went off and pet our own and joined another group that had less people.
Everyone had a great time! It was educational and fun. We held stingrays, starfish and even conch. The captain and crew were exceptional. I would suggest taking some Dramamine if you are prone to getting seasick.
Client did not have a good time as weather conditions were not conducive for this activity even though the supplier pushed on. Client heard another participant who is a certified scuba instructor say it was dangerous conditions and it should of been cancelled.
