We have visited Chincoteague Island for many years, looking at the water from the land, but decided that looking at the land from the water would give a different perspective. Scanning the names of the tours available, it seemed that anyone with the name "Daisey" would be a knowledgable guide, since that family has been here for 200 years. It... More

I had a lot of fun with Daisey's Nature Cruise. Our guide, Ted, is very knowledgeable about the island and its history. The boat is spacious and the seat is very comfy. We saw different species of birds and a view of the famous lighthouse on Assateague Island. We even had a chance to see some ponies, each of them... More

Our nature cruise with Capt. Tom Daisey was the highlight of our visit to Chincoteague/Assateague. The cruise was so interesting, seeing herds of ponies close-up, many birds, the lighthouse. Capt Tom Daisey was very personable, and shared much knowledge about the island, its history, the changing shorelines, the ponies and their care, the local aquaculture. We were joined on the... More

Ted was our tour guide and he had the answers to everything. We got to see two Osprey, one was just returning to its nest with a stick - very cool and very good photo op. Also lots of ponies near the water. Ted brought us to a dock where they farm clams and oysters and explained the whole process,... More

We had an excellent time on this nature cruise. It was 4 adults and our 22 month old son on the trip and couldn't have asked for more. We saw about 2 dozen ponies and the famous Surfer Dude and his son Riptide. Capt Tom let our son drive the boat some which was very exciting for him. We stopped... More

Had the pleasure of taking the island cruise April 27th. Mr. Daisey is very personable and his local insight was great. His family has lived on the island since the late 1700's, he knows everyone and has great stories. Bailey his 13 year old dog, came along for the trip. More

Ponies, shells, fresh shucked clam, lots of local history. The Daisey tour was a highlight of a weeklong, DC, MD, Annapolis, Baltimore vacation. Thanks Capt. More

I had read about Daisey's Dockside Cruises on Trip Advisor prior to our vacation and there was no question that Daisey's was the cruise we wanted to experience. We were not disappointed. We saw different herds of wild ponies, one herd especially was very close by. We had lots of questions about Chincoteague and the area and Tom was able... More

The owner was great about contacting us, and making sure we would be able to find where the boat left from. The cruise itself was very nice. It was chilly the day we went, and they provided extra blankets and jackets. The captain took us all around, and gave us plenty of chances to see wildlife and the town of... More
