After reading endless trip reviews for months we were put off by the negatives. We woke up early on our first day in Miami and decided to take a gamble by booking Banana Joeās. Wow, Did that pay off!
The pick up was on time, comfortable and Christian gave us lots of information. Being a Sunday the wait time was about an hour for the boat so we were asked to go to the gator show first (not for me, Iāll leave it there). The airboat was fun but itās a shame most are covered so you really need to be on a side. There are 2 bursts of going fast. An hour flies by. We were lucky to see 3 gators including a 10 footer openly swimming.
We booked the Miami city tour as well to get our bearings which ended up just us and one other couple. We were dropped off for lunch and then given the best tour of Miami seeing so many areas weād never be able to see in one day if weād tried independently. Once again, Christian gave us a lot of information. It was a perfect mix of free time along with a trip in an air conditioned van.star island, Bricknell, downtown, little Havana, ocean driveā¦..
he never rushed us at the end of the tour I was actually really emotional as weād really bonded with our Irish friends and Christian made us feel like VIPās.
If you are thinking about booking with Banana Joeās, stop and just do it! Professional, accommodating, friendly and excellent value for money (rare in Miami). I couldnāt ask for anything more.
