Great session on Tampa bay with Dustin. Our first time in a speedboat brilliant fun. Unfortunately didn't see any dolphin or manatees

The speed boat itself was fun but our guide was bad. The information said no prior experience was needed. But the guide had a very bad attitude was very impatient when our boat had some troubles. Moreover, the information said we would learn about the Florida coastline and make stops at various points. However, the guide only narrated once and did not stop at any spot. We had to keep catching him during the tour. Another bad thing was that we gave him $10 as a tip after the tour, but he said we must give at least 20% gratuity which is $30. And still said we should give more than that because we had some troubles when driving. We finally gave him $30 as he asked but we felt very uncomfortable and disappointed. Will never come back.

Justin was our guide. The event was superfun and actually had speed boat experience. This was not “going through the motions” it was really fun and exciting.
