Our tour was canceled by the tour company, 1 day before our reservation. I had to call for our refund, I trust it was done correctly.

We saw no dolphins, which can happen. The pilot spoke minimally at the beginning and end, and did nothing to teach the several little ones on board about why we were going where we were going and why we might not see anything. His young assistant was personable and friendly but, again, could have provided info. Also, filthy bathroom and ridiculously overpriced snacks. The only plus was it was a beautiful breezy day.

Great little tour, great captain, we got to see a few dolphins after about half way thru the tour and the weather was beautiful.

The Captain did an excellent job finding dolphins and the 2nd in command was an excellent tour guide! We enjoyed our tour.

The captain and the co-captain were knowledgeable about the Savannah River. They were patient with the group we were with and provided us good views

Seeing dolphins in the wild. Hearing dolphin facts and historical references from the captain, Johnny Windows.

Damian and Sienna were great. interesting scenery of a different side of the port, container ships coming in, the dredging machine in operation, low country, plus the dolphins! Also really appreciated that they didn’t cancel with only 4 of us as the national brand (has a color in its name) did less than 24 hrs before due to “lack of capacity”

We took this tour because it sounded so interesting. Captain Damien and Sierra were our guides. We got a history of the area and information about the work that is being done to improve it on the way. When we got to the area of the dolphin it took a few minutes but then they started to show up. They we so cute. Several of them were appearing and disappearing around the boat. It was hard to get any pictures because they were there and gone before you could react. It was recommended to film and then pull some pictures off. We got a few. It was so fun.

A women got hurt when climbing the boat . The captain should have called 911 and send her to a hospital to get stiches and Tetanus shot . We waited for 45 min to get him bandage the wound and clean the blood of the boat to continue . No Dolphins and all the trip sucked.
