Backwater Adventure's CraigCat Tours of the 10,000 Islands

Posted By : Alexis_B
Eric was our tour guide & he was awesome! Enthusiastic, knowledgeable, & professional. We learned a lot from him! We loved being on the small craigcats which allowed us to scoot through the mangroves. The highlight was getting out at the small beach, seeing dolphins playing in their natural habitat & the closeups of the beauty in the mangroves! No swimming for us but wearing clothes that could get wet was key! We used the bimini cover on the way back as that sun gets hot, so be prepared. Polarized glasses helped, too!

We recently took a small boat tour in Marco Island, FL, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience! Our guide, Eric, was exceptional. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the area and its wildlife, and his enthusiasm made the tour both educational and fun.

The 2.5-hour trip through the 10,000 Islands was nothing short of amazing. We were able to see a variety of wildlife up close and learn about the unique ecosystem of this beautiful area. Eric’s passion for the environment and his ability to share interesting facts and stories truly enhanced our experience.

The boat was comfortable and well-maintained, and the group size was perfect for a personalized and intimate tour. Whether you’re a nature lover or just looking for a fun and relaxing way to spend a few hours on the water, I highly recommend this tour. It was a highlight of our trip to Marco Island, and we can't wait to do it again!

This was the best part of our entire trip! We got to see dophins and many different birds. Loved getting to drive our own boat! Captain Eric was fantastic!

We had a great family day on the water with Tyler as our guide. Kids were excited to see lots of dolphins and it is a fun way to see Florida from a different perspective. If you get a chance, do it!

Really good time! The boats were in great condition and the guide let us go as fast or slow as we w I ere comfortable with, while following the rules that were initially set forth. Lots of dolphins and other wildlife. He knew the area well and answered all questions. Lots of fun and very safe

Most fun day ever! Guide (don’t remember his name but he was originally from Detroit) was awesome; explained things well, knew where to look for dolphins, stopped frequently to check on everyone. Boats were easy to drive and lots of fun! We took the 1:00 tour. 2 1/2 hours was the perfect amount of time. Water was provided. We stopped at White Horse Island to swim and look for shells. The dolphin were everywhere the whole trip, and even played by our boat! Highly recommend this adventure! I would do it again!

This was a great excursion! Family friendly and fun. Takes a bit to get use to steering but once you do, it’s so much fun! Bring cash for tipping. We forgot and felt awful because our guide was great.
