The best evening adventure

Brady was our guide and we had the best time! He was incredibly knowledgeable about the island and made a point to show us all the interesting things in the area. We also saw lots of dolphins and an incredible sunset. Worth every penny!
Loved it.

Allowed for a shell-hunting excursion.

You get a boat for six driven by a knowledgeable captain. No one besides your party is on the boat. You can bring your own food and beverages. The captain will have water for you.
At our request, our captain took us to Boca Chica for some evening shell hunting for the kiddos. The shells were much larger than they are on the island. We had a great adventure.

Had a Great Evening, the captain...

Had a Great Evening, the captain, deckhand and staff were fantastic.
Got to see close up view of dolphins, while enjoying the sunset.
Upon return to dock Live music and bag pipes at the restaurant were a bonus. Will do it again when we return.
Worth the money for a private comfortable boat tour of the area.

We perform checks on reviews
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.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
