I went on the 2 pm tour on 9/24 and we saw no dolphins & no water life. Just birds. I think if you don’t see a dolphin on the Jekyll island DOLPHIN boat tour, you should get a refund. The two tour guides were great & provided a lot of historic information , but my group (a bachelorette party) came to see dolphins. The boat ride was relaxing & the weather was great that day so it was nice being out on the water. Just disappointed in the overall experience.

I'm sorry that you were disappointed with your 90 minute, relaxing, beautiful weather, fully narrated boat tour of the waters of Jekyll Island, filled with lots of historic information, that only cost $25 per person.

Both men were awesome, nice and a little funny. The tour was very informative and the most enjoyable part was just the peace of the tour. I would have given a five star if we would have seen dolphins, but we understand they can’t guarantee that we see any of them. I would recommend this tour to anyone.
