They let you drive the boat by yourself just you and your family on the boat and you and the rest of the group follow the tour guide around . He was doing donuts in the water taking us to different parts let us jump in the water it was so fun . They have a cooler on the boat and they give you drinks to put inside !

Great experience! - The boats were incredibly fun. Felt more secure than being on a jet ski and a cooler was provided on board and came loaded with ice and drinks. Would definitely recommend.

Seeing San Juan from a different perspective... - We did the San Juan Mini Boat Tour in a beautiful January morning. We enjoyed the 20 minute walk from Caribe Hilton to the marina. Check in was easy. The mini boat was clean and in very good condition. Francisco was our guide who lead us to some spectacular sights. It was pretty neat to see Old San Juan from the water and also a lot of fun to be side by side (well, sort of) with some giant cruise ships. The water was choppy part of the tour, so the adventurous element was definitely there too. We walked to the T Mobile District afterwards and had a great lunch there. This tour gave me a chance to see San Juan from a different perspective and I highly recommend it.

Great excursion - This excursion was better than the description. It was everything we were looking for, our guide took us on a very nice trip. They called the night before to confirm, directions were spot on and the folks running it were the best.

Do it! - A very fun experience! Great crew/ people! You get to captain your own mini boats which is super fun! I’d recommend to anyone who wants to see the fort from a different view.

They cancel for no reason even with reservation made weeks in advance!!! - We booked this excursion weeks before our trip and kids were so excited for it. Got an email the night before saying it was cancelled. No explanation. We walked down the day of our reservation to see if there was a mistake and we spoke with other tour companies next to east island. They told us the weather conditions were perfect so they weren’t sure why it was cancelled. When I called to ask if they had anything for our last day, the woman I spoke with was rude and just said the captain can cancel with no explanation. Ridiculous and very disappointed kids!!!!
