    Everything! The experience was great! Our guide I believe AnnMarie was amazing, her knowledge and her excitement was so infectious. We saw many whales and got to experience them in their habitat. I can't wait to do it again!

    Crew member Roland filets fish caught

    My husband and I set out for a half-day fishing trip on Star which left at 8 am Saturday morning. The weather was perfect and the fishing even better! Roland, the crew member, showed us the basics and was always available each time a fish was caught. The skipper moved to various spots where the fishing was plentiful. Roland filleted our catches (the ones that weren't too small to keep) so we could bag them and bring them home to eat! This was such a great experience! Thank you Roland and crew!!

    In addition to the convenience, the staff on-board Viking are always really friendly.

    Best fishing east of Brooklyn!!!! Always catch lots Porgies, Sea Bass, Fluke, Trigger fish etc....coolers never going home empty. Theo the new deckhand is very polite and attentive. Great attitude and dedication to his craft. Definitely fishing on VikingFleet again.

    Sea Bass and Flounder

    My brother and I had an outstanding time on the Viking 1/2 day fishing trip. We got there early to secure a spot on the boat. The boat was filled. The minute we got out to the ocean, my brother put his line in and he caught a 20" + flounder. He later caught a sea bass and I caught a porgie - all keepers. We caught several fish throughout the morning but they were too small to keep. The crew was outstanding. Professional, courteous, reassuring to those not so familiar with fishing and just overall great team. John, Paul were super capable and patient as well as knowledgeable. When we thought my line got caught on a rock John helped us with the pole and said that was not a rock and he "felt the head move" - that's the mark of a true fisherman. We pulled in a a large skate and tossed it back. The skate had sucked up the bait and was not letting go. All in all, we loved it. We will be back. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

    This whale watch trip was so much fun and so educational at the same time. The staff and crew were so nice and knowledgeable. It's a rustic feeling kind of fishing boat so don't expect a yacht, but it didn't matter to us. We had a great time. I got some great photos as well, cheers to the Viking crew. We had a great time and will be coming back with another bunch of friends and family

    What boat do they use to go whale watching? My father is in a wheelchair and I'm wondering if he can go.?

    Hi, We use the Viking Starship. We have accommodated wheelchairs. Keep in mind that tides have an effect on the amount of steps to get into the boat. Sometimes there are none.

    When do you start your Whale watching tours,and how much does it cost?

    2018 Season This trip sails aboard the Viking Starship on Sundays and Wednesdays in July, August and the first Sunday in September from 2 pm to 7 pm. The fare is $75 for… Read more

    We've been coming to Mystic every year for a while, and this is the first time we discovered Mystic…read moreBoat Adventures. My daughter and I had an absolute blast piloting the boat, and once we got over the fear factor that we were going "too fast" and gained confidence in piloting the boat for the first time, it felt like second nature. We did the 3 hour Mystic River tour which ended with a "free sail" hour at the end. However, we opted not to go out into the Sound due to heavily windy conditions, so we stayed in the channel in the "playground" area doing donuts and figure-eights. Before we knew it the 3 hours was up. Rob was a great host and he taught us how to pilot the boats in no time. He was also very knowledgeable of the Mystic seaport area. We had a great time and will absolutely be making this a regular part of our yearly Mystic trips!

The reviews were all highly praising and it looked like a fun experience. I have to say: don't hesitate! Book them! Rob was a pro guide and made sure we understood how to operate our boat safely and how to get the most fun out of it. Yes, there are safety things that you need to be aware of, but he was very encouraging of us trying out what the boat can do. We loved getting to do donuts in our boat! The tour itself was very informative, and we really got a feel for the area. We're already looking forward to returning for another season with a full group of friends to rent out all the boats. This is a must-do activity when visiting Mystic. Be sure to arrive on time as requested so that you can be briefed on the safety. That is so important, and that is why they tell you in advance that you will be turned away if you are late to the safety briefing. For those of you who may be wondering, there is ample parking, and it was about a 15-20 minute drive with traffic from downtown Mystic. Again, a huge thank you to Rob for being an awesome guide and helping us have the best experience possible for my husband's birthday surprise. Hope to see you again soon!

We were looking for an activity that would be fun for a multigenerational group of 23 people with toddlers, seniors, and everyone in between. We had been in communication with Oliver for months in advance. About two weeks before the big day, we saw that the forecast called for showers throughout Memorial Day weekend, particularly the Sunday of our planned cruise. We monitored the weather and decided to make a decision closer to the day. Throughout the entire process of planning, Oliver was responsive, reliable, accommodating, and kind. On the morning of the trip, Oliver gave us multiple options and worked with us to make sure that we could cancel and get a full refund due to the inclement weather. He provided us with agency up to the last hour of decision making. On a day that could have been really stressful, Oliver alleviated some of that stress. That is exceptional customer service, and that is the reason we will be coming back to the Argia for another special occasion. Highly recommend working with Oliver and his team if you get the chance!

He took us to many fishing spots around the Montauk lighthouse, some closer to shore and others a ways out. He had many spots marked on his Gps so they were easy to get to. He baited all of our lines, measured all of our catches so we had keepers to take home. He also filleted some sea bass for us at the end. Super memorable fishing trip, look forward to the next one with Captain Bill.

We did a lot of research and were unable to book a sailing adventure until we spoke with Afton from our hotel. Afton was fantastic and was able to find Island Girl Adventure for us. Words can't express the amazing experience we all had. Bill & Maggie picked us up from the Marina at Gurney's Star Island. They were super friendly and down to earth captains! They took us on a beautiful Sunset Cruise around Montauk and treated us to chilled champagne and gourmet appetizers! We listened to relaxing music and had many laughter's during the two hour trip. The photos we captured during this sunset cruise are priceless and we're all left with beautiful memories that will last a lifetime! My 2.5 year old daughter joined us on this trip and wore a life jacket. According to the captains she was the youngest guest/sailor on their charter :) She had lots of fun as she watched the sunset on the ocean! We can't wait to return and book a Fishing Trip w/Bill & Maggie! We highly recommend them and can't wait to see them again soon! If you like Quality Service, Friendly Captains and Safety then look no further! :) Thank you Bill & Maggie! You guys are awesome!!! :) Erika D.
