Thank you for making my boss very happy and I myself intend to make arrangements with you for future personal event. Cheers!

Octavio is one of a kind! We all had the best time despite…read morethe rainy, gray weather. Octavio humored us and took us on a trip of the Bay instead of the Gulf due to storms. He has offered up another evening so that we can experience the Sunset on the Gulf that we missed out on. Truly a great evening- highlighted by double rainbows and dolphins! If you are looking for an uptight-sophisticated, peaceful -romantic evening- look somewhere else, please. We brought drinks and snacks and had a fabulous adventure. As Octavio puts it- you can bring anything on-board so long as it's legal....He is hilarious- rich with stories and looking to make sure you have a great time!

This cruise started out lovely but did not end the best. We boarded the boat for our cruise for 11,…read morewith 4 kids (10-14 range) and the rest adults. We left the dock with a woman guide and an older man captaining. She was quite friendly and talkative and explained the area to us as we drove around. We stopped first at an inlet that serves as a nursery area for dolphins and we got to see several young dolphins play and learn some fun facts. The ride was enjoyable - we had brought drinks and snacks on board and everyone was enjoying themselves. We neared Bird Island and the woman guide pointed out a house belonging to Garth Brooks. She then tried to point out a house belonging to Cameron Diaz's mother, but it was a bit out of sight - so the boat moved around to get us into eye-sight. That was when the boat lurched and came to a sudden halt. The woman did not appear to react at all, so at first no one seemed to realize anything was wrong, but soon we were alerted that we had run aground on a sand bar. Here is where things went downhill sharply. Over the next 30 minutes, it became clear that they had no idea whatsoever what they should do. There was no emergency plan. The captain tried to gun the boat in reverse to back us off, but it was firmly stuck. They tried to wave down another tour boat, only to have them tell us that they would love to help but had customers on board and were not permitted. They seemed to have no defined action plan at all. Finally they called their main office, only to be cursed at by, presumably, the owner, that he now had a lot of paperwork to fill out and that the captain better figure it out himself. We tried shifting all passengers to the front of the boat - then the back - and then back again, several times. Not longer after this, the captain informed the adults that the only solution he could come up with was for some of us to get out of the boat and start pushing. Given we had all been drinking, I am not sure how this was the solution arrived on, but presumably without a modicum of help from the company office, this was all he could come up with. Myself and another adult got into the water and started pushing - and with him gunning the boat in reverse - we were able to get free. Now during this time, with tensions high, the captain yelled several times at the kids. We boarded the boat again without any major issue - and we were off again after about an hour trapped. They took us to see the sunset before bringing us back to the dock. They apologized profusely and offered us some free rides the next day - of course the last thing we wanted was to get on another boat at that point. We have not been offered any discount or refund of our cruise - despite spending a third of it trapped and being yelled at. I find this whole situation completely avoidable. Why they did not immediately call the office and have them send another boat to rescue the passengers, it is unclear to me. Or have company staff push the boat off. Had any of us slipped and injured ourselves getting off or back on the boat, this could have gone from bad to much worse. Worse yet, they appeared to have absolutely no action plan at all for what to do when things went wrong, which is honestly indefensible. No one waiting for us at the dock to apologize - no follow-up from the company after the fact. I would strongly caution against using this company until they figure some of these items out, at the least.

We did the half day tour with Captain Aaron on One Love and it was phenomenal from start to finish. His boat is gorgeous which is also a nice bonus. He took us all the way to Sarasota and showed us a bunch of the sites and then took us to a little cove where we swam and paddle boarded for a bit. We got to see a bunch of dolphins and he even got some to play in the wake of his boat which was gorgeous. All in all, I would recommend this to anyone who is going to be in the area and will deff be returning next time we visit my parents. My dad didn't stop talking about what a nice day it was for the rest of the weekend so it would also make a great and unique gift!
