Enjoyment and Information among the Horses and Dolphins - Wonderful tour of the bay that included personal stories and information about the Chincoteague community -- and of course wild horses and lots of dolphins! The guide allowed plenty of time to get a good look, and pointed out the bird life. It was informative and enjoyable, and the boat was comfortable.

Great overall experience - Mike was a excellent host, had tons of interesting information about the island and about the ponies. On the way back in we saw pods of dolphins and Mike turned the boat around so we could get pictures while watching them swim. Ponies were a little farther than we were hoping but you can't predict nature. All in all it was a great experience. We'll be back next year and rent his jet skis too. The boat is super clean and very well maintained.

Amazing tour. Gorgeous scenery and the ponies were amazing! - Wow! It was such a great trip! Mike was an amazing guide, so much information not only about the ponies but also the history in the area. We actually got lucky that day and saw dolphins, bald eagles, and the ponies! It was definitely a win-win! He was respectful of the ponies, which was highly important to my husband and I. Support this local family business, you won't regret it! Beautiful area! Cannot wait to go back and do it again!!!

Relaxing - Great captain, very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. Unfortunately, we did not see any ponies that day, except at long distance. But that is unusual apparently....and none of the other boats out at the same time would have seen ponies either. Plenty of dolphins though.

Trip was fantastic! Mike... - Trip was fantastic! Mike can answer any question about Chincoteague- he’s lived it. We saw a bald eagle and so many dolphins on our trip. At one point they came close enough, it seemed the dolphins were checking us out. A wonderful way to spend time on the water, hear the history of the area, and see fabulous wildlife.

Camping trip with my daughter - My daughter and I had such a wonderful time with Mr Mike as our guide. He was so knowledgeable about the island and had lots of lovely stories about his family’s history on the island especially his grand father Clarence Burton. We also had the pleasure of having Mr Mike’s lovely wife Ms Pat along for the ride . We were so lucky to see the albino dolphin that was the talk of the town that week. After hearing and seeing everything that both Mr Mike and Ms Pat shared with us, it made us have a new love and respect for Chincoteague. If anyone is thinking about doing this tour you will definitely benefit by having Mr Mike as your tour guide.
