So much fun! An absolute must if you are visiting Miami with a group. Fernando was so accommodating and friendly and was able to give us a mini tour of the yachts and houses on the water. Would highly recommend.

AMRITPAL_S, Jan 2025

Great tour evening time visit around miami on premium yacht also our captain Luis so nice and helpful we love his service

A great tour!

Erin_B, Jan 2025

Enjoyed a beautiful afternoon in Miami with Luis, who gave us more than a tour; more like a history lesson or a TMZ report! Great communication, safety precautions, lots of information and fun for our family while visiting Miami. Thank you!!

Best Captain Derlyn

Derlyn Avello was the best we had so much fun on his boat he took us around to see all the big mansion & let us take all the beautiful pictures an laugh n dance . If you wana have a nice time book him he made the boat fun af!!!!

Awesome time in beautiful Miami, DO IT!

Lauren_C, Jan 2025

From the start this was an awesome experience! I grew up in Miami and have seen places I have never been before. We went along the Miami River which is gorgeous and then out into the intercoastal. We kept it chill as it was a family trip but this could be fun for an adults only trip as well. Anthony the captain was awesome and flexible with what we wanted. I would go back again. Note, there are additional fees for captain and tip that are not included in the viator cost.

Great captain, but read the fine print for hidden fees from the tour agency

Lauren_H, Dec 2024

My review is composed of two aspects: 1. The Captain - was awesome! 5 stars for Ovi. I'd definitely hire him again. 2. The tour agency - was misleading. Be aware that the price you're quoted in only ~50% of what this will actually cost you (before tipping the captain). When this came to light the night before the trip, I asked about it. The tour agent tried to pressure me to just cancel, which I couldn't do at that point. They should be transparent in their total pricing instead of intentionally hiding their fees.

Response from Host, Dec 2024

Our attention has been drawn to a recent review which we find both unacceptable and unfair. The review alleges the presence of hidden fees; however, all such fees are transparently outlined under the exclusion tab. It is crucial for customers to read this information thoroughly. Negative ratings should not be attributed to our service due to some customers' oversight in reviewing this information. Additionally, we send a detailed message the day before the tour, outlining all fees, and we provide the option of a full refund if customers are not satisfied. We are committed to transparency and aim to ensure that all our customers have a clear understanding of our pricing. Please be advised that all fees associated with our tours are comprehensively explained on Viator, in full compliance with US Coast Guard regulations. The excursion section on Viator specifically describes what is excluded from the price. This information is provided to prevent any surprises and to ensure that all necessary details are made available upfront.

Book with Luis! This was so lit and worth it! THANK YOU AGAIN!! <3

Kayla_R, Dec 2024

This was soooo nice! We booked a private boat for my friends birthday and we both loved everything down to the inside of the boat! Luis was our captain and he was also a great tour guide! We were able to play music and vibe in Miami, while also popping bottles and shaking some a** lol. We also saw dolphins and waved at so many ppl on other boats. It was a vibe especially just a private boat just for me and my friend! We also went fast towards the end and that was a movie!!! So fun and def worth it. Luis made us feel safe, and we enjoyed the sunset. They kept great communication and they accept cash app as well For the fees! I will definitely be booking again with my boyfriend! LOL THANK YOU AGAIN LUIS YOU DESERVE 100000 STARS!

We had the best experience with Peter. He was such a great host. When I come back to Miami I definitely will book with him again.

Excellent

Gary_N, Nov 2024

This was a very enjoyable excursion for the views as well as Captain Ovidio who was always engaged. I will definately book a longer tour next time.

Must do in Miami!

Christina_K, Nov 2024

Best time we had with friends

Sachin_p, Oct 2024

This was great private boat at sunset time. Our captain Anthony was great. View of Miami downtown was amazing We had great photos. We played our music and did dance in the boat.

Captain Ovidio is the best!

DianeCassandra_H, Oct 2024

Captain Ovidio made this trip absolutely incredible. He really went above and beyond for us, moving forward i will always request him. Boats are boats but captains are the ones that really create the experience. Charismatic, polite and very professional.

The Best Day

Nicell_N, Oct 2024

“It was an absolutely incredible and wonderful experience. I’m so grateful for such a special moment. The captain explained and pointed out every place we passed, and the views were beyond words. Without a doubt, it’s an activity I highly recommend.”

Private boat rental

Emily_b, Sep 2024

Had a great time !! This boat tour is so worth it . We had Ovidio Carrillo has our captain , he let us play our own music and gave us two options if we wanted to go to the party island or if we wanted to take a tour by the famous mansion. We took the party island and had a blast with drinks and the float mat . Definitely recommend Carrillo as a captain.
