Cory was a great guide - so friendly and knowledgeable! We had a blast! I highly recommend this and will book again on our next trip!

This was by far the best experience I have ever had on the water. Captain Cory was super knowledgeable about the area and made sure he catered the trip to our needs. He made sure we saw all the highlights of the area and we got to dock and enjoy the Beautiful crystal blue waters and sand bars in the area. I loved that he incorporated trying to find the dolphins and getting them active during the boat ride. I have been to siesta key for 8 years prior and the trip with Captain Cory brought a whole new dimension of excitement and admiration to the area.

The boat was comfortable and our guide Cory was fabulous. He gave us history and funny stories. We chose to stop at O’leary’s for a drink and continued on our journey! I highly recommend this outing!

We had a fantastic time. Corey is great! Our family had another boat and captain cancel on us last minute, and he took us out with very short notice. I would highly recommend this experience.

What an absolute fantastic time we had for our afternoon cruise with Captain Cory. Captain Cory was great with communication a few days before our trip when I had questions, as well as the day of. During our trip he was a hit with both the kids (6 and 12) as well as the older adults in their 70's. Captain Cory had a wealth of knowledge of the bay and the surrounding areas. He took pictures for us and even entertained the youngest by showing him all of his fishing pictures while the rest of us were enjoying the cold water. We had a snack while watching the fishing guides clean fish, we found lots of conch out in the bay on a sand bar, and just had a nice relaxing time cruising around. Captain Cory and Sarasota Boat Tours is the place to go for your cruise. It's like your friend taking you out on their boat. It was the highlight of our trip. Thank you Cory!

Very friendly and knowledgeable captain. Very relaxing trip. We saw dolphins and manatees during our cruise. Finding the boat is a little difficult but the operator of the cruise sent map before the morning of the trip. Highly recommend!

Captain Cory was great, showed us a lot of different wildlife and scenery and had the knowledge to go with it

Cory was very knowledgeable about the area, friendly and fun! He catered our charter around our requests. We’d highly recommend him and are going out on an excursion with him again next week!!

Honestly, Captain Cory did not disappoint at all! He was very accommodating with our schedule arriving a bit early. We told him what we kind of wanted out of our experience and he knew where to take us. It was also great to learn about all the wonderful sea life. It’s well worth the money for a private experience out on the boat with family and loved ones checking out sandbars and more. We got lucky with the perfect weather out on the gulf but I trust he would’ve known where to take us if weather didn’t permit.

Cory was great host and captain. Took us to cool spots and we enjoyed our trip very much. Highly recommend!!

The dolphin sighting was definitely a highlight of our trip! We enjoyed relaxing at the sand bar and having drinks at the tiki bar. Captain Bobby was the best! He gave us several recommendations of places to eat in the area that had yummy fresh seafood as well as other delicious appetizers and entrees, perfect for celebrating our ten year wedding anniversary and my 50th birthday. He also had great stories about the history of the area. I would 100% recommend this charter for a most relaxing day on a vacay to Siesta Key!

Outstanding company. Captain Bobby is a Florida native and had great insight to the area. I highly recommend Sarasota Boat Tours. I’d give more than 5 stars if possible.

Captain Bobby was amazing! We had so much fun seeing Sarasota from a new perspective and hearing his stories.

We had a fabulous time. It was definitely the highlight of our trip to Sarasota. The captain was fun and informative. We had out dog with us and he was super with her. He took us to a sandbar so we could get out and romp with her - it was great fun. Other highlights were seeing dolphins, manatees, and a nesting area for local birds. There were at least four or five types of birds with their yound all nesting in the trees - I got some great pictures.

Captain Bobby took great care of us, with a knowledge of all the areas as well as various things to do on our trip. I’d highly recommend!

Had the best time, despite the red tide, mostly thanks to Captain John. He made sure we were comfortable the entire trip and hit all the best sightseeing and drinking spots. The boat was beautiful and had plenty of space and amenities. Can't recommend Captain John enough!!

Was a great an fun experience! Capitán Bobby is the nicest and kindest. I will definitely repeat it!

Had a wonderful relaxing tour, saw dolphins and beautiful homes and searched for shells along the sandbar. Brad was great, informative and accommodating. Highly recommend!

We really enjoyed our boat ride with Captain Brad! The boat was very clean and comfortable and he let us help decide how we wanted to use our time on the boat; we stopped to watch dolphins play, explored Edward islands and stopped at O’Learys for frozen drinks. We would definitely recommend and next time we may try the sunset cruise

Our experience was great. Capt Brad was awesome. We all had a great time from dolphin watching, sand bar, beach and house watching. Would do it all over again.
