Not only do you get a day pass to hop on and off at different attractions, restaurants, hotels ... you also get an excellent guided tour with detail about history of homes and attractions

The water taxi ride was informative and for the most part the operators have a lot of interesting information to share about the homes and boats. It is a 3 hour roundtrip ride. If you get off at a stop another water taxi won't be back for 45 minutes. Plan ahead--and get there early--if they don't see you waiting--they may... More

20 bucks a person when you can instead ride the Sun Trolley for 50cents ? In StPete beach they even have a free ride service. No one should pay close to $20 for a water taxi unless it includes free drinks.

The water taxi is a great way to site see, visit, and explore Ft. Lauderdale's inter-coastal. With the ability to visit local shops and restaurants, on a flexible schedule all day long, the water taxi is ideal for both family and friends. BYOB is great for day riders that seek to stay on the taxi, and for others food is... More

Worthwhile way of commuting up and down the inner waterways with a wee bit of information ( and COMEDY ) thrown in

We enjoyed all the stories we heard about the various residents of the beautiful homes we went by. If you buy your ticket after 5 pm, there is a reduced rate!

Had the best time going up/down the Intracoastal on the Water Taxi in mid-April. Very helpful and informative "guides" shared fascinating info about the magnificent homes, yachts, and their owners. Will enjoy another "tour" on my next trip to Ft Lauderdale.

We spent an evening touring the Intracoastal Waterway on the Water Taxi. Caroline's commentary was hilariously entertaining, the sights were spectacular, and we got where we wanted to go and back in a relaxed atmosphere. We'll do it again next time we're in town.
