We had a…read morespecial needs boy in our group and she made really sincere accommodations for him (avoiding noisy areas). Sailor sniffed out the dolphins and alerted us when he saw them. The dolphins played in our speed waves, it was unbelievable. Kathe is local, lived here her whole life, daughter and wife of a fisherman...so she cares about the area, shows things like bird sanctuaries and is very careful with the gulf life. She has history of the area and a lot of knowledge to share. She has a funny personality and her snd Sailor make a perfect team. Thanks for the memories, Kathe!

From the moment we stepped aboard, she made us feel welcome and took the time to learn what we wanted out of our trip. What really set this tour apart was how Beth tailored the entire experience to fit our needs and interests. She was flexible, knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely wanted to make sure we had the best possible day on the water. We never felt rushed, and every stop felt like it was chosen just for us. If you're looking for a personalized, relaxing, and memorable boat tour around Anna Maria Island, look no further. Beth went above and beyond to make our outing special, and it was one of the highlights of our vacation. We can't recommend Island Time Boat Tours highly enough and will definitely book with Beth again on our next visit!

While my wife and I were staying at a nearby hotel, the employee spoke to my wife in an aggressive, disrespectful, and completely unprofessional manner. Regardless of the situation, there was no reason for her to be treated that way. Customers and visitors should be spoken to with basic courtesy and respect. This interaction left us with a very negative impression of AMI Dolphin Tours, and I hope management addresses the employee's behavior so others do not have a similar experience.
