From the booking of the trip with Tammy to being dropped back off at the marina, Full Throttle was a great experience and value. The crew was knowledgeable, friendly, and 1st class. The boat was immaculate and all the snorkeling gear was clean/new. We went to all the best spots and got to each one FAST!!
Don't even think about saving a couple bucks to snorkel off a sailboat or "pirate ship" with 50+ people you don't know who are probably more interested in drinking themselves silly than snorkeling!!

My wife booked our Adventure Snorkel Tour with Tammy from Full Throttle and I'm so glad she did!!! It was an amazing day for my family! It happened to be just the four of us. My wife and I and our two children 12 and 9. All of us had the best trip out to the waters. First Mate Maddie and the captain Bompi were amazing on the boat - full of information about the Country and also the different spots we were going to. Even about places we could eat when back on dry land. We're adventurers of all sorts so we like to go out and seek out fun things to do each day! This was right up our alley!
The Boat was super fast which we all loved especially my kids. The 3 spots they took us to were all great but the 3rd and final spot was off the charts good. They said it would be and they were so right!!!
I highly recommend booking with Full Throttle tours. It's like no other. We've done the big huge boat full of 40-60 people and are just tired of that whole feel. This was truly an experience all its own. And the price was the same if not cheaper than the big boat. And we got fruit punch for the kids and rum punch (which was great) for us adults!!! I wont ever say no to some RUM PUNCH!!!

We are a well-travelled family and researched and choose this company. Love their story of moving down here to start a business with their daughters. BUT, we had a few safety concerns on our first stop (captain had to be asked to turn off the motors when crossing over to the ladder BEHIND the boat in choppy waters). After the second stop, the captain hit some huge waves from waverunners and my husband and I went flying in the front of the boat and slamming down Hard. Two broken bones and a dislocated wrist and a day in an ER where they don’t provide ice for orthopedic injuries is not anyone’s idea of fun on vacation. My husband’s back is extremely sore from hitting the plastic side of the front seat (He’s opting for care back home hopefully). My husband and I both healthy and active (before this) and like adventuresome travel excursions, water repelling, zip lining, great hikes, etc. Just beware of the risks...if this can happen to us it can happen to anyone.

Passenger safety is always our number one priority, however, sea conditions are unpredictable. We are extremely saddened about what happened to your wrist during your tour and wish you nothing but the best.

We went on a morning snorkel adventure the day before we sadly had to leave Aruba. We had such a fun time. The Boat Captain “Bumpy” was fantastic. Not only was he entertaining, he took us to great snorkel spots that the big boats just could get to. And man can this boat go fast! Leave Nana and young kids at home for this adventure. Highly recommend it!

Rum punch, fast fun boat, 80's rock music and 3 great snorkeling spots. I loved this trip. We got a full tour combined with personalized service. Our teenagers loved the ride (I did too) and felt we got to see and do more than the larger crowded snorkel tours. I would to this again! Our captain and first mate also made it a ton of fun!

My husband and I don't like being in huge groups for snorkeling so we were automatically intrigued by this tour. We were not disappointed. We got to go to reefs that we hadn't already snorkeled and cruise along the water. I loved riding the waves. The idea of drift snorkeling had never crossed my mind but I thoroughly enjoyed it. We even got to take a quick peek at a sunken yacht because we had a couple extra minutes. I would go on this trip again and again.

First of all, I have never taken the time to write a review. I am writing this because Rygel, Jonathon, his wife and Tammy gave me one of he BEST experiences I have ever had. This is my second visit to the island and I wanted to visit the best snorkeling locations, but I wasn’t comfortable going on my own. I also didn’t want to get on a crowded boat and had no interest in drinking. I found Full Throttle and saw that they take snorkeling serious. The speed boat was part of the thrill and got us to these two best spots quickly. Rygel actually got in the water with us and personally stayed by the side of a girl in our group that had never snorkeled before. He made sure to point us in the right direction so we wouldn’t miss anything. Jonathon made sure to keep a close eye on us in case we needed help. On the way back Rygel made sure we saw the pelicans on Pelican Island and even took us by the airport and we got to experience a plane landing as it fly right over us! Crazy! Jonathons wife was very friendly at check in and Tammy was responsive & personal via email. This truly was the BEST part of my entire vacation. Thanks to everyone at Full Throttle! I will definitely be back!

This is a must do in Aruba! 9 people max in a tour, our tour was just us two! Fast speed boat takes you from one side of the island to the other. The boat is amazing and the crew does a great job bringing you to areas away from where all the other boats are, so it is more to yourself and more personalized. Was a phenonmenal experience and I highly recommend to anyone looking to do some snorkeling and hang out on a fast boat!

Loved the snorkel spots and the high-speed boat tour where we were able to see a lot of coastline. Went to three spots from the top to bottom of the island. Tour guides were perfect who helped everyone enjoy the trip--from the dare devil to the reluctant snorkeler. I have arthritis, bulging discs, and a plate in my neck and the bumpy boat ride did not impact my physical issues. This really was the highlight of our trip and we still talk about it. Thank you Full Throttle Tours!
