    Bald Eagle sighting on July 4th!!!
    Shibu T.

    Captain Casey is awesome!!! We had a great time learning about Chincoteague and Assateague from him. He was awesome to take us in search of the ponies and dolphins and anything else along the way. As we were moving along he spotted a bald eagle hanging out on a tree and we got up fairly close to be able to see it. He showed us another empty bald eagle nest also. We were able to see the southern herd, but not the northern herd that day. But was still awesome overall. I know there are plenty of options on Chincoteague for boats, but we're so happy that we picked Captain Casey! The boat was really nice, large with plenty of room, and very comfortable since he customized it to be a tritoon boat! Best of all, for our family of 5, is that he only takes small parties. So we ended up with essentially a private charter and he customized the trip based on what we wanted to see! Don't hesitate when choosing Captain Casey!!

    What an amazing trip! My mom waited 70 years for this! We booked our trip for a Saturday 2pm and…read morethere were only 2 others on the boat. We went in with the idea that we will have a great trip on the water and learn a little about the area. Fingers crossed to see the horses, that is what mom waited all these years for! We saw part of the heard on the way out from a distance and were happy with that. Then we saw a pair of eagles and dolphins and a group of pelicans and leaned about wallops island. On the way back the heard was closer and we got the experience of a lifetime. They came closer and closer and we were in awe. Captain John was great and the rest of the staff were very friendly and the boat was very clean. We also got a special shell from a little entrepreneur!

    We took an early Sunday morning boat tour around the Chincoteague Wildlife refuge with Captain…read moreJohn. Although it was cloudy and raining, John reassured us that we would have better chance of seeing wildlife in such a weather. He took us to interesting places around the island including the lighthouse, oyster beds, mariner's cross, and popular bird nesting grounds (egrets, pelicans, laughing gulls, black backed gulls, ducks). We also saw the ponies from afar. Overall, this was a great memorable exprience! P.S. only suggestion: could rain coats be provided to customers in a rainy weather?

    If you want to go on a tour to look for ponies and other wildlife, this is the tour group you…read moreshould book. Captain Mike was great. He not only got us so close to the ponies, he pointed out bald eagles, the different birds that were flying around. I was amazed at how he could recognize what horse was there by sight. From hundreds of meters away while in the middle of the bay. He also had some fantastic and funny stories about Chincoteague (wait for the Sugar Shack story) what is was like growing up in the area. You can tell he loves his home very much. The pontoons were brand new and stable and very comfortable. It was windy when we went out but I never felt nervous because the pontoon was so sturdy and stable. We got some great photos. And Captain Mike was awesome. I would go again.

    I highly recommend picking Mike and Up the Bay tours for your pony sightseeing…read more Mike is a native to the area, and thus very knowledgeable, but also extremely enthusiastic about the ponies. Thanks to Mike's knowledge of the area, the ponies, and the waterways, we were able to boat right up to the ponies in a manner that was clearly comfortable for them and not intrusive. He was happy to chill there watching them graze and swim, never rushing our tour. But we watched as many tours stayed outside of the marshes and never came close to ponies because the captains were not comfortable navigating the shallow marshes. We would have been quite sad if we were in one of those tours!!! Lastly, the boat is shaded fully shaded and the most comfortable tour boat I have ever been in. Recommend 10/10 - worth every penny!

    We had a phenomenal experience with Captain Hunter!…read more We went on a lovely sunset tour with two moms and two four year old girls. We booked with Hunter ahead of time on the phone. He was honest about our chances of seeing wildlife--he said early morning was better, but for our toddlers, that wasn't happening. We decided to go ahead and take our chances with the sunset cruise. There are bathrooms in the boat house near the parking lot. The ride is around 2 hours, so we made sure our girls went beforehand. You can bring your own booze and snacks, so it was an extra fun mom outing, lol! Hunter was so informative and just a nice guy all around. I had tons of questions about Chincoteague, the ponies, and even remote Tangier Island. He knew so much--he has a degree in marine biology from William and Mary and he's also a member of the local fire department. And he's really a real cowboy! Seriously!!! His specialized knowledge, regarding both local flavor as well as wildlife, was something I wouldn't have wanted to miss. By going on this tour, I got to know so much more about the place I was visiting. On to wildlife: we saw TONS of dolphins jumping right by our boat! We also saw some beautiful birds, and you best believe Hunter delivered on the ponies!! He did some really cool guy shit to get us to a shallow spot to see the ponies. We saw a small group of them and he knew every single one of them by name. Our girls were in heaven, picking out their favorites. On the ride home, the sun was setting and it was just beautiful. I hope someone else will see this review and decide to go on this special tour!

    Amazing! Our tour guide knew so much and knew great areas to see horses. He got us so close to the…read morehorses. The tour started on time. I had two kids with me (5 and 1), they loved it. Such an amazing experience!
