Thank you Levi for the most awesome adventure! We made arrangements to follow Levi to an area where he puts the boat in (close to Coco Plum Beach). He had waters and Cokes on ice & we had brought our own, as well as snacks, After he got us out into the deeper water he let me 18 yo son "captain" the boat. Levi was of course right there beside him to make sure he followed the correct course and would take over in tight spots. We went first to Compass Cay to feed/swim with the sharks. Amazing! We paid $10 per person to get down in the water with the sharks. There was around 15 or so nurse sharks that swim right past you and rub past your legs. My daughter was too scared to touch them at the time. After the feeding was over, they all kind of swam off to different corners. Levi grabbed some hot dog off the grill and threw it in the water and they were right back again so she could touch them. From there we went to Thunderball Grotto. It was beautiful, but I can put that down on my been there/done that list. It was difficult to swim against the current and get into the grotto. I was pushing my 7 yo from behind and then have to swim to get caught back up to her. Keeping in mind that there were other boats full of people as well trying to go into the same area. Once inside, it was neat to see, but again, the current was trying to take me back out and it was too difficult to try and help her and stay out of the rock area. My son went out a different hole and said the current wasn't bad on that side. After that we went to see the turtles. I can't remember the name of the Cay but we were the only ones there. The guy got down in the water with us and they held out conch for the turtles to eat. Said to make sure we were mindful of our fingers and for our daughter to stand in the water so her toes weren't dangling down. From there it was onto the pigs. There were about 8-10 other boats there when we arrived. My 18 yo son didn't move fast enough and got bit on the finger by an aggressive pig. I'm sure he was just trying to get food. I grabbed the food from my 7 yo and threw it down to the pigs because they were coming after her. She loved petting on them and once she didn't have any food, they were fine to be around. When they would approach, she would open her hands to show she didn't have anything and they would leave her alone. After that we went to the Iguana Island which was just as much fun. They would eat out of your hands and the kids had a great time. They couldn't be talked into laying on the ground like Levi did and letting them crawl on top of them though. We spent so much time at some of our stops that we ran out of time and weren't able to see the giant starfish. We did a private tour with Levi. With 2 kids, I wanted to be able to set our own pace and not be controlled by a group schedule. The boat was the perfect size. I could see that 8 would fit comfortably on it. Levi told us up front that it was windy and was going to be choppy. He was right. But we had a great time and it was more fun than a Disney ride! I would highly recommend Levi for an excursion. He was very polite and took great care of us.

Booked a regular tour with Exuma Sunrise as a gift to our adult children and 2 year old grand daughter. Eva was very prompt to answer all my questions and emails. We had a bit of a glitch when our tour was cancelled last minute due to "needing" a part for the boat. Needless to say we were all very disappointed! Eva offered to refund our deposit or for us to do the tour on Saturday, our last day in Exuma. We chose to do the tour and to our delight and surprise, they gave us a private tour to compensate for cancelling our original tour. We were 7 adults and a 2 year old. Levi picked our group up on the beach in front of our rental. Levi and his son Renaldo were great! As were I believe Levi's 4 and 7 year old grandchildren who joined us for the day. They went out of their way to ensure we had a great time. Levi even let my husband drive the boat (a highlight for him). The boat was very comfortable and had a canvas top that can be put up for shade if required. We saw beautiful starfish, swam with pigs, visited Iguana Island, saw stingrays on Stocking Island, snorkeled a blue hole, dove for conch shells, spent time on the most beautiful sandbar in the middle of the ocean, and stopped to see the amazing swimming turtles in Hoopers Bay (the highlight of my day)! We had trouble spotting the turtles but Levi didn't disappoint and made sure we saw what we came for!! We had a very nice lunch buffet at Exuma Point Restaurant. The staff were very pleasant and the food very good. Levi and his son never rushed us and allowed us to go at our own pace throughout the day. They provided water and pop, snorkeling gear and life jackets. I would highly recommend Exuma Sunrise Tour. You will not be disappointed! We had a fantastic day with our family and experienced so many wonderful sights that Exuma has to offer. From our family - thank you so much Levi, Eva and Renaldo for giving us an unforgettable experience! Thanks for the wonderful memories!

My family and I had an amazing tour with Levi! He picked us up right at our condo in Hooper's Bay and catered to whatever we wanted to see!! He really let us customize our tour and was so kind and easy going! I would recommend Exuma Sunrise Tour!

Don't be fooled by their cheap price. Take a different tour group. Unprofessional and unreliable. Cancelled out tour on Monday for no reason. It was a beautiful day and other tours went out. We're supposed to pick us up this morning. Confirmed last night and sat on the beach for 20 mins waiting for them. When we called you could clearly tell they were out because out the wind noise and I asked if they were coming to get us and the captain Levi said no tour cancelled. Tomorrow. Yeah right that's the same garbage we heard for Monday. Save your time and don't bother with these people.

He postpone our trip several times, still saying about bad weather conditions (it was sunny, almost no wind). After third postopne i called to next company and they told us weather conditions are perfect so we go next day. He probably has less customers so he is waiting to fill the boat or he was drunk after weekend. Be careful if you are just a couple, he will probably do the same to you :-)

This not a negative or positive review but is to be informational. Sunrise seems to have nice and honest people working there. The price of the all day private tour blew away the competition. The problem is they have a small boat. Think large lake runabout. Because of this they have a wind limit of 15 mph. That is forecasted not actual. We were in Exuma for 7 days and the forecast was for over 15 mph winds the whole time. I asked another captain and he said that was pretty typical. So reserve at the risk it could be canceled but do know they are quick to refund your deposit if they do.

I recently booked a tour with them for 10 people. I made the reservation with Levi. A week before confirmed my reservation with a staff that does not answer the phone simply texts you back. She/he confirmed that I was booked. The day before I called to ask pick up time at the hotel and they did not have my reservation and cancelled .. Without explaining why. I texted all my prior conversations and they simply replied that they couldn’t do it. I asked if they could do it on Sunday and they said the Levi had the day off and he did not want to do a tor that day. There are many other companies on the island that do the same for about the same price. Do not waste your time with them.

Levi and family were great! Upon arrival we were treated like family. Levi had his son on board to help and a couple of his grandkids tagged along for the day as well, all of them were great people. Levi knows the islands like the back of his hand, really felt like a day out with my Dad. Very laid back easy day. We hit all the favorite places and spent as much or as little time as we would like which made it so much more personal. I highly recommend hanging out with him for the day. We ran into a lot of the bigger charters and they were all crowded and very structured. We had a blast, and if we come back we’ll definitely hang out with Levi again. He’s quiet so listen because he has a lot of knowledge about the islands!

I highly recommend Exuma Sunrise Tour! I booked online and communicated with Eva. She was always quick to reply. We spent the day with Levi and Renaldo, who were both extremely nice. They did a great job taking us to all the stops ( pigs, iguanas, sand bar, star fish, turtles). I enjoyed being on the boat with just my family and not crammed onto a boat with strangers. The day was adventurous, relaxing and fun! You won’t be disappointed.

Levi and his son took us out on June 25th 2018 for my boyfriend's birthday. Our party of six was nervous that the weather would not permit a trip out to sea, but thankfully the weather cooperated and we were treated to a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Levi and his son made everyone feel safe and comfortable. They were so welcoming. We are very grateful for their kindness and generosity and would recommend them in a heartbeat if you were interested in taking a private tour in Exuma. Everyone agreed that this was the best part of our trip to the Bahamas. If you're interested in spending your day with lovely fun people in a picturesque atmosphere, book with them!!! Thanks again guys!!

I know they say 8-10 people is comfortable. We have 11. Is that too much? Also, I've been hearing that it is windy down there. Has anyone had their tour canceled because it was too windy?
Written March 3, 2018
how much is this tour and when to start？ How many people on the boat？
Written July 1, 2017
We paid $1300. The trip was about 8 hrs. The boat comfortably would seat 8-10. I think Levi said it would hold more but space would be tight to me, especially if it was all adults.
Written July 1, 2017
I was wondering... Are you able to book a regular tour but pay extra and add swimming with the sharks?
Thanks
Written April 7, 2017
the sharks are located in the cays so you have to take the cays tours to go to the sharks it is about 45 minutes by boat each way
