We visit Chincoteague almost annually and this is going to be another regular for us! Mom and pop owned, relaxing and good conversation even though it was just her and I kayaking. Very knowledgeable about the area and the ecosystem. Very great recommendation for a group trip or solo with the instructor.

Great afternoon with Captain John. We saw lots of dolphins up close. Ponies in the distance. Beautiful scenery. Would definitely recommend.

The tour was really exciting ! Captain John was very knowledgeable, with a very cool personality . He took us to many sights close up and explained all the interesting features from where the ponies are, where the pony swim and auction take place, the oyster beds, where the bay meets open water, the lighthouse, Barrier Island with the birds, Mariners' Memorial Cross, and sunset views in stages all along the way. We took so many beautiful scenic photos to enjoy for a lifetime.

Amazing tour! This tour was the best thing we did during our stay in Chincoteague. We didn’t set our hearts on dolphins knowing the are wild animals and there is no guarantee that we will see them but we actually did! A dozen or so! The Captain stopped his boat and let them play all over the boat while we were admiring the scene and taking photos. It was unbelievable experience. Much more than expected.

Tour was amazing, took us to a lot of great bird watching spots! Saw a lot of great birds and even dolphins! Couldn’t have asked for a better day!

The captain is so kind and knowledgeable. He was patient and stayed as close to these beautiful animals as possible without disturbing them. Absolutely 💯 the best tour. It’s a must.

My wife, dog, and I motored off to an island just across from Curtis Merritt Harbor. It is full of nesting shore birds but they did not bother us unless we walked a little too close and they got very vocal. There was a large contingent of pelicans and other birds I have never seen before. We set up camp for an hour and a half and enjoyed nice breezes, beautiful views, nice walks and a swim. Flies were a little annoying in the shade but bug spray kept them at bay. Current is a bit strong so didn’t venture too far out. Capt John and his wife Basia were great hosts. We also bought two shells from their lovely little daughter. I would highly recommend a water taxi or boat tour at this family run business.

What an awesome trip. No better way to see the ponies. Our guide was wonderful. She was so helpful and full of stories. She got us so close to the ponies and spotted dolphins. We paddled on a double kayak which was really comfortable and stable. Appreciated that the guide even switched us to an earlier slot a few days before because she wanted us to have a good experience with the tides and temp. Knows her stuff and takes you on a great trip! A must do in Chincoteague.

We had a good time exploring on a comfy boat with a knowledgeable captain. The weather cooperated and the views were great.

Excellent tour of Assateague! Our guide was lovely and very knowledgeable. We saw lots of ponies and learned fun facts about them and the island. It was good exercise, too!

Excellent tour. John was very knowledgeable. Booked for Sunday but bad weather coming so they allowed us to change to Saturday. Saw dolphins and ponies. Great trip.

Amazing tour on the water in Chincoteague by Assateague. We saw so many birds, dolphins, and got a great history lesson as well. Wish we had seen some ponies but we didn't get that lucky! Our captain was very knowledgable and helpful!

John was amazing guide. He got us close to lots of birds without disturbing them and gave me time to get good lucks at the shorebirds and other oddities. Somehow he also managed to get us the best views we had all week of dolphins AND ponies as well. And the boat is very comfortable and quick. If you're a birder, this is worth the money.

Our guide was wonderful. Very knowledgeable and informative. She also understood that not everyone was as athletic. I am 51 and not in great shape but she was able to slow down at times without signaling me out. Got within 15 feet of the horses and saw bald eagles right overhead. My 13 year old son had a great time as well.

Super fun day on a private beach! It was a 10-15 minute boat ride to the private beach. Super nice, comfy, clean boat, super nice Captain. He dropped us of on a "little beach" where you can get to only by water so it was very secluded, matter of fact for a little while it was only us. We had the whole becah for ourselves! It was a cool spot with nothing there... just water, trees and sand. Quiet and peaceful. We loved it! The Captain picked us up when we were ready. We had a blast!
