It was informative and relaxing. We arrived an hour early and they were able to change our time and get us in the boat early. It was a great tour!

This was a very fun and relaxing boat tour. The captain was very knowledgeable and informative. I thoroughly enjoyed it and on my next trip when I take my dogs on vacation, I will be taking this tour again
