Wonderful time!! - I thoroughly enjoyed the cruise to Savannah!! Enjoyed it so much that I’ll book again on my next visit. Saw dolphins, beautiful natural landscapes along the way, and the crew was phenomenal, especially Sam and Madison. They made you feel welcomed, like they were genuinely happy that you were on board. Plus, Sam introduced me to Cadillac Margaritas, which was a bonus!! The captain’s narration along the way was informative, and at times humorous, particularly when he told us about the 3pm departure time, “with or without you!” Have to appreciate the humor in that. We thoroughly enjoyed, were impressed with the hospitality and skill of the crew and look forward to booking future cruises with them.

A beautiful day out adventure - All in all a good day out. The weather was on our side until we reached the dock on our return. I do wish we had more time to spend in Savannah

Day Trip to Savannah by Boat - Highly recommend this day trip! It’s a quiet boat trip along the Intercostal, saw dolphins and eagles. Crew was courteous and friendly. The speakers on the boat didn’t work so we couldn’t hear the guide aspect of the tour. Otherwise this was a great way to get to Savannah and enjoy a few hours in that beautiful historic city!

Fun Experience - The boat and crew were very good. Very friendly and helpful. It was hard to hear the captain explaining what we were seeing so we missed a lot of that. Would recommend to our friends. Good

Not so great! - The trip to Savannah was fine except the volume of the microphone for the first level was so low that with people talking it was impossible to understand what was being said. The trip back was horrible! The air conditioner was not cooling the cabin and people running in and out to the deck basically made it impossible to keep what little cool air there was in the cabin. My husband who is 85 was dripping sweat to the point his tee shirt was wet. It was a big letdown from our trip in May. In not so hot weather it was enjoyable.
