This was the highlight of our recent ten day holiday in Miami. Captain Colin gave us a unique perspective on Miami including the history and a tour that included Star Island, Fisher Island, Downtown, Stiltsville, Biscayne Bay - all from his super speedboat. What he doesn't know about Miami isn't worth knowing!!

Booked this tour on the day of with Kim and we are so glad we did....excellent tour of Miami from the water! Captain Colin was knowledgeable and fun and we learned much about Miami. Price was steep but we were happy to pay it just to be on the water.

Captain Colin was great. We were suppose to have the tour on Monday, July 5th, however Elsa has other ideas and brought rain to the area. We were rescheduled for Friday, the day we were leaving and it was perfect. So so many things I had seen on television and had always wanted to visit. Well worth the price and so glad we were able to reschedule.
