Being out in a secluded paradise and the dolphin that played peek a boo with guide eric was absolutely fantastic dolphins all over the place and even coming up to the vessels , pay attention to the tutorial and you will be just fine and have a blast

This was the highlight of our Marco trip! Connor was a great guide, gave us all a quick tutorial for driving the CraigCats and then led us through the mangroves, stopping periodically to explain what we were seeing. I hadn’t realized that Irma had stripped all of the mangroves of their leaves when she hit - it was good to see so much regrowth, but you could still see some bare areas and it was definitely an education in the impact of hurricanes. The tour alternated between some slow cruising and some fun, fast-paced slaloming, my husband had a great time driving! He provided individual coolers with bottled water on each CraigCat, and he also stopped at an island about midway through the tour to give us a chance to walk around and enjoy the Gulf view. After the tour, we hopped off and went straight to lunch at Little Bar and had a great meal. Tips - Wear good sunscreen, and reapply! I was careful to wear mine, but still got too much sun since I forgot the reapply part. Pack light - there’s a small locker behind the seats to stash your things, but it’s pretty slim. Anything not in the locker will likely get pretty wet.

Upon a recommendation from relatives, we tried this adventure eco-tour. The CRAIGCAT boats were a lot of fun to drive and our tour guide, Connor, was very knowledgeable about the area and wildlife. We went to a nice island beach for a break halfway through before returning to the marina. The whole experience was amazing, fun and we highly recommend it!

We did the 2.5 hr Craig cat tour. It was definitely fun & something different! We were able to see several dolphins during our tour. The island you stop at was just ok...not good for shelling as some have indicated. Our tour guide recommended the little bar for lunch. We ate there as recommended, but regretted the decision. Worst meal we had in Marco.

This is an outstanding activity to do while in south Florida. I highly encourage it! Shelling, driving like nascar on the water, dolphins, and much more. Truly all of us enjoyed it!!

As advertised. Great job by our tour guide Jason! Awesome adventure, saw a lot, learned a lot. Highly recommended activity, phenomenal value.

Exceeded our expectations. Safe and fun. Our guide Conner was very personable and knowledgeable. You really get the chance to open up their CraigCats. It was like a go cart on the water. It was so calm we went out into the gulf a bit and back in the mangroves for some tight turns. We lucked out on the weather and the dolphins! Highly recommended.

We rented from Backwater Adventure and thanks to Jason had a great time. This is the second group we have brought to Jason and he never lets us down. Thanks

Awsome adventure. Totally fun and very educational. Connor did an awesome. This was one of our favorites the whole teip!

This is our second time with Backwater and had a great time. 2.5 plus hours, very well priced, equipment is in great shape and it's so much fun cruising around the mangroves and seeing the gulf. And there are 3 great fish restaurants right next door.

Craig cats are awesome, you should try it. It's like a jet ski but you get to sit side by side with your riding companion Tyler did an excellent job of leading our tour. We were fortunate to have a swarm of dolphins around us which made it all that much more cool. Don't hesitate, DO IT.

This tour was a great experience! We drove around the 10,000 islands. We walked around the island and we also hung out with the dolphins for a while! Tyler was a great tour guide, he was very friendly and was very knowledge about the 10,000 islands! Very fun day!

We had a fab trip with Tyler, our first Craigcat adventure! We are from the UK and not used to driving any kind of motorboat but these were very straight forward to handle and Tyler made sure everyone was always comfortable. We had some time with a small pod of dolphins swimming along and playing between the boats which was amazing to see so close! Definitely want to do that again!!

Thanks for another great afternoon. The dolphins were amazing! This was our third time out and we plan on doing it next trip again! Tyler is awesome. A great way to kick off 2020.

Tyler was a great guide. The craft were fun to ride and operate. We had a fun time skimming across the water at 30mph. Got to the barrier island and spent 30 minutes just enjoying the scenery and natural habitat that surrounded the island. Since we did not see any dolphins on the way out, Tyler took us on another route in search of the dolphins on our way back. We would do this again.
