So much fun!! Better than expected, we had a blast are guide gave us a brief history of St Pete and then off to cruise the surrounding islands and through some of the bays and gulf. Highly recommended when visiting. It's a great adventure for the price, good for groups, couples and even with kids, accompanied by adults.

Great fun driving mini speed boats on Tamp bay and the Gulf of Mexico. Dustin was a great guide and the boats were easy to drive

I should have realized from the title of the company that this was clearly just a high speed experience. We were the only boat behind the guide who led us by a JetSki. We thought he was going to narrate the whole thing but he hardly said a thing. In fact we thought our CB was broken because we never heard him talk while we were going through he area with nice homes. He checked in once then took off full throttle for probably 45 minutes. As the driver my husband had fun but as the passenger I was holding on to the single handle on the dash. Exhilarating yes but a disappointment if you want to spot any dolphins or manatee (per the description). I understand that tips are important to the guides. But he clearly suggested 20% and more if possible… we felt strange not tipping 20+% as we were the only ones and it was clearly suggested. I would not do this again. I was disappointed and had a headache afterwards but if you’re a speed demon you’ll probably like it
