A sham

The boat never showed up. We received an email about a change in pickup location and arrived at the given location. Very disappointed

We are sorry you missed the boat, everyone else made the trip and had a blast. Emails, texts, and phone calls were made to each of the guests at least 24hrs prior departure. The location change was due to the Fort Lauderdale Boat show. Come on out next time you're in town and turn this review from sham to glam!

Boat was not at the location given. Paid all that money, had a huge group for a birthday, and we didn’t get to go. Awful.

Stacy, there were 111 guests that made the boat the Saturday your group was scheduled. I can see your group of 6 and two other individuals for an earlier trip did not make the boat. All guests are notified at least 24hrs prior to departure of the pickup address via email, text, and phone call. We would've loved for you guys to join because this really is the most fun in Fort Lauderdale. Hope you give it another shot next time you're in town.

To both reviewers in this group: That morning, The International Boat Show displaced us from our dock 5 days earlier than they scheduled. Our SENSATIONAL crew rolled with the punches and relocated the boat to a new pick up spot in downtown, 3 miles away. Your group was the only one unable to make the trip that day; everyone else worked with us on the change. The Captain and a booking agent called to explain the spur of the moment situation and worked to correct it. While I understand this is frustrating for all of us, I do not think it deserves a negative review. Especially since you were fully refunded and did not even experience the trip. We wish you could have joined us but because a city wide operation decided to start construction that morning, against their emails to us, you were unable to. We hope you give us another chance and understand that this is an sensational company that does everything in its power to show people a great time.

If we cancel due to lighting/weather, it's for the best. You know... because of the whole metal boat in the middle of water thing. As far as the refund, we process those immediately, it is the processing system that holds it up.

The operator had to cancel due to lack of people, waste of time. Wont be using them again. Just a pontoon boat with a bunch of kids

We do offer private pontoon boats if you'd prefer to put a bunch of adults on one? Our public tours do need a minimum amount of people to go out. This is stated in the description. Most of the time there are enough guests to go out, but occasionally (Tuesday morning) there aren't. Good news is, you were given a full refund, zero hassle, and offered another date/time. Luckily there are plenty of fun activities in Ft Lauderdale. We hope you give us another shot next time you are in town.
