Amazing tour of the island with snorkeling and a delicious lunch. The crew was amazing and answered our thousands of questions about the island and surrounding islands. Highly recommend.

We took this tour when we cruised on NCL in March. Best tour we have ever been on! Catamaran was large, enough indoor and outdoor space! Crew was friendly and knowledgeable. We cruised around entire island. Stopped for 2 hours at a beautiful beach on an island off Antigua. Snorkel equipment and instruction was provided. We could relax on beach as well! A fantastic Lunch was served. Beer and rum and coconut punch included! Worth the money. Definitely would take this tour again!

Best excursion one can do in Antigua, from sea turtles to dolphins to perfect guidance and great food. Couldn’t recommend anything else compared to this.

The Tropical Adventures Catamaran tour is an absolute must do activity!! The boat is so nice and spacious, and the locations where you stop (2 beaches) are stunning. The lobster lunch they offer was one of the best lobster meals I've ever had. The crew is an absolute blast - they make the tour feel like a big party and everybody had a great time! We took this tour as part of our cruise and it was the best tour we did the entire time. Highly recommended!!

The boat appeared to have way too many passengers, the private beach we went to was non-existent...barely a spot to sit on a skinny strip of sand. The snorkeling was awful because the weather wasn't great. The lunch was good but nothing special. The main reason for the low rating was the rude staff. They barely smiled and the bartenders behaved as though there wasn't an open bar. They were stingy with drinks and avoided eye contact. Save your money & skip this.

Four of us had booked a “See Antigua by Sea” tour from our RCL cruise, and this was one of the best catamaran tours. It was a big crowd onboard and the crew welcomed us and got everyone comfortable for the several hour adventure. Lots of space to hang out either in the shade or in the sun with some salt spray. Our interior guide kept us all informed of each landmark that we passed adding some humor to his comments. It was a windy day, but the captain kept the motion down to a minimum.
We made it to the sheltered side of Green island on the east side of Antigua and anchored right on the beach. The crew led us on an hour snorkeling tour. The equipment was clean, in good condition and worked well. There was a crew member in front and behind us along with another in a dinghy for added support. The underwater sights were average, the reef has had a lot of wear and tear. Everyone kept up with the group, but you should be in reasonable shape. They required a float belt which was a big help.
When we returned to the beach, the rum punch was opened (full bar available too) and the crew served us all. An amazing lunch of broiled fish and chicken, rice, pasta and salad were provided. The fish was very good. A little more beach time (I wish it had been longer) and then we headed to Falmouth Harbour for a tour of the yachts. This was impressive, but maybe a bit too much time here.
Along the west coast the dancing started and another one of the crew led the conga line around the deck. We greeted the harbor with another loud song and dance performance. The tour was 6 hours and well worth the price. A very good and helpful crew. I recommend Excellence Catamaran Cruises for your next Antigua adventure!

This boat trip was loaded with fabulous views of the island, excellent lunch, swimming and snorkeling. If you're looking for a jammed pack daylong activity this is the best. 👌

This is a must do excursion when visiting Antigua. It’s a 7 hour trip around the island but it feels like 4 cause it’s a great time. The crew is great, music is awesome, you get to sightsee and snorkel at the green island, they cook some jerk chicken and rice and pasta. Unlimited drinks.
