We brought our food and drinks and there was enough storage on the boat for all of our stuff. Our captain navigated us well and took us to the best spots to see dolphins and a nice quiet private beach. Then he showed us the perfect spot to stop and take a ride on the slide. The whole process was seamless and the experience was great. I highly suggest you book with them!

I was very pleased with how well Captain Randy communicated and provided additional insight. Upon closer to the time for our day I had a follow up conversation with Cassie who provided even more information that brought comfort not only to me but my guests as well. They provided a cooler with ice and water as well as numerous floats and shelling bags. The whole experience was relaxing and refreshing. Our captain for the day was Jordan and she was Spectacular with keeping us on time and showing us around. We did a 4 hour boat tour but were able to have time on the slide and visit two islands. Truly an unforgettable experience for families and groups alike. 10/10 will be booking again for a longer time. Thank you for providing a wonderful experience.

After a quick safety briefing we were on our way to watch one of the most beautiful sunsets ever. The ship was equipped with a bunch of beanbags to lounge on and we had plenty of room to relax. As an added bonus we were escorted back to the dock by a small pod of dolphins. An absolutely amazing trip from start to finish! Bring your favorite wine and have a great time like we did.

The weather was perfect although a little choppy at the bay but all was calm once we sailed the gulf. We spotted dolphins along the way, enjoyed the majestic sunset, and relaxed the rest of the time. We appreciated that Jack chilled our Sangria and cheese. Also kudos to first mate Jack since we were his first official group that he would take on first mate responsibilities! He did a fantastic job! He was such a pleasant young man and Captain Tim was just so chill and funny. We highly recommend!

The new address was a 25 min drive. They told us to get there 30 min ahead of reservation time, which was 9am. The boat and person didn't arrive until 905. I have asked numerous time for a partial refund as I booked for 6 hours but could only do 4 when it was further away. I get no response.

During booking, he was very easy to communicate with, answering all of our questions. The weather was questionable leading up to our trip and Matt kept us well informed throughout. The day of our trip he gave us great instructions to find the dock. His pontoon was the perfect size for a group of 5 to 6 people. He has a speaker, brought floats and a cooler with ice and waters. We were able to stop at 4-5 Islands, collect shells and saw some dolphins! It was an awesome trip! Thanks again, Captain Matt!

My friends and I had a great experience on our dolphins-spotting cruise on Little Toot. The captain…read moreand his crew worked really hard to try to get us to see some dolphins. Unfortunately, there were a lot of jet skis that were chasing and scaring away the dolphins. Not cool! The Little Toot crew was very angry about this and really seemed to care for the dolphins' well-being. Because it was such an ordeal trying to see dolphins, they marked our cruise as one that didn't see any and we'll be able to come back on a future dolphin-spotting cruise for free.

This was just a spur of the moment dolphin boat ride after lunch, and what a GREAT EXPERIENCE!!! Located at the Clearwater Marina, if you purchased online you just need to check in to get on the boat. This boat is nice well kept, and gives off a modern day Tug Boat feel, which has literally a "Toot" for the horn. They serve soft drinks, and spirits for the experience, but it is CASH ONLY for that, along with photos that are taken before you board the vessel(if you choose to purchase afterwards) All-In-All I'm going to leave it up to my videos to do the rest of explaining! We will DEFINITELY come back!! Ps...Sit at the bow of the boat to get the best views for the dolphins!

The guys, Brad and Craig I think was his name were great. We didn't have to touch a single fish we caught. I would have liked to take a picture with my catch but it was definitely not a deal breaker. Brad was engaging and made sure that everyone enjoyed the experience, so Kudos to Gulfstream Charters for an amazing time. We'll definitely be doing it again, I think I'll take the little girl with us the next time, she loves to fish too and it will be an awesome experience for her. Didn't care to much for the barracuda that jumped and ate half of my fish that I was reeling in but still an awesome time.
