Captain Dave was fantastic. Super friendly and knowledgeable. It was a lovely evening with our two daughters ages 14 and 10. We would definitely do it again and recommend it!

Captain Dave was the best. He was very hospitable and knowledgeable of the history of the island. There was no waiting time for us. I would strongly recommend Viator to anyone who is looking for a great time on a private boat. May I also add that Amy stayed on the phone with me to ensure I got to the right pick up place. Now that’s service!
Response from Host , Aug 2021
Kenneth,
We are so glad to hear that you had such a great time with Captain Dave on your private sunset cruise :):)
Amy has also been a total blessing for us and is the absolute foundation of everything we do - connecting with our guests and holding their hands all the way through the entire process.
We hope that we have the opportunity to serve you again - and hopefully become a tradition every time you come visit the island.

Our family of 6 had a great time! The scenery is beautiful and the boat is very comfortable! The captain had great knowledge of the area.
Awesome Experience

Loved the tour! Our guide was easy-going and fun, and showed us some great things around Hilton Head. We saw dolphins, manatees, snowy egrets, pelicans, and a bald eagle. Totally worth the cost of a private boat ride!!! Would do it again!!
Response from Host , Aug 2021
Lynn,
We are thrilled to hear that you had such a great time with us - and spotted a proverbial gaggle of avian and aquatic life on your private boat tour.
We hope that we have the opportunity to connect with you again next year (or sooner) for some more fun and exploring out on the water.
Amazing sunset cruise

Amazing captain! Amazing views! Amazing knowledge! Our family had a great time watching the sunset, getting off the boat on the beach, and seeing dolphins. It was better than any excursion we have ever done!

Everything was AMAZING. Boat was comfortable and Capt. Neil and his music were perfection 😎
Saw a beautiful sunset and dolphin jumping and playing! Could not ask for anything better.
Perfect night!

What an awesome experience! We booked the 2 hour sunset dolphin cruise for our 4 kids and it exceeded our expectations. Weather looked a bit dicey at the start, but our captain found the exact spots to avoid the storm and we saw tons of dolphins! The sunset at the end was gorgeous. Our captain knew so much about the area and was the perfect guide for our 1st trip to HHI! We discussed a future ride next visit and we were very excited to hear about all of the options. Definitely the highlight of our week and well worth the money. If you are on the fence, don’t hesitate! Great memory for our kids and thankful we did it!!! Our kids are ages 9-16 years old. Every one of them loved it!

Aimee,
We are so glad to hear that you had such a great time with us on your private sunset cruise. Thanks for bearing with us with the weather as well - I was out there too with another group and the sunset was gorgeous. Not to mention having the entire water to ourselves 😁😁😁
We hope to have the opportunity to connect with you again on your next visit to Hilton Head.
Best,
Neil
beautiful sunset on the water

We loved seeing the dolphins and beautiful sunset at Daufuskie Island. Captain Neil was very knowledgeable about the surrounding islands and the kids had a great time! Hope to be back again very soon.

We had the best experience with this tour! Our guide was informative answering all of the many questions my 13 year old son had. He had a great sense of humor and gave my teenage girls the choice of music and many photos ops! We had amazing views and would hands down so it again! Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Saw dolphins, manta ray, hit a storm but a great way to learn about the island and see beautiful real estate.
Response from Host , Jun 2021
Kaitlyn,
Your review totally made Captain and David and I smile. We joke around all the time that we are one part Lowcountry tour operators and one part real estate consultants.
I'm so glad that you had such a great time with us and hope that we can connect the next time you are here on the island for another memorable excursion...

Fantastic sunset cruise with capt Dave!! The boat was clean and comfortable. Dave was super personable and fun to talk to. He also was super knowledgeable of the area, so he was able to share fun facts throughout our trip. We had a wonderful sunset and saw many dolphins! 10/10 would recommend!

You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
