We did a private your with Captain Doug. He was very knowledgeable about the island, ponies, and dolphins. He showed us dolphins and ponies during the tour. He was also a local so he told us a lot about the history of the ponies and island.

Dan shared a tremendous amount of knowledge and was funny as well. By far the best boat tour we have ever been on. I have never seen a captain go back to a spot we had left but dolphins showed up and we went back. This tour is a must. Rick & Kathy the two with all the questions.…

This was the highlight of our trip to Chincoteague. Captain Ray was informative and we enjoyed his stories and connection to the area. The boats are clean and appear to be well maintained. We saw dolphins, a bald eagle and three bands of ponies. The last group of ponies were close to the water so we were able to drift and observe them for an extended amount of time. Part of the appeal of this tour was the relaxed atmosphere. Overall a five star experience!…

Great experience with Capt. Gavin, 8th generation “Teaguer”, and he really knew his way around. We saw several pony herds, and foals! He also shared his knowledge of the islands, and the history. Highly recommend Capt. Dan’s Tours. We were on a semi-private tour, just 5 of us. Boat was comfortable, and Capt. Gavin provided binoculars, guidebooks, and blankets! Thanks Capt. Gavin and Capt. Dan’s Tours!…
