Beautiful, relaxing, and informative tour of the Cape May wetlands... totally enjoyable! - We learned all about the birds and wetlands of Cape May. Captain Bob was so full of information and took time to stop at many locations so that we could observe up close the various species of birds. It was a thoroughly enjoyable trip!

Wonderful Sunset Birding Tour - What a great sunset and birding tour on the Osprey. The captain and naturalist (Pam) were knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. They spotted birds, gave us interesting facts about the wildlife and area, and answered any questions with a smile. It was an interesting and different way to see and enjoy a Cape May sunset. Bring a jacket!

A great experience as always! - We’ve taken the Osprey Birding by Boat trips many times, and they are always delightful. I’m a birder, but my wife is not. But she loves the trips and we often bring friends and visitors. Both the Captain and the naturalist are wonderful, and work hard to make certain that everyone sees everything.

Lovely Evening Bird Cruise. - Late afternoon/evening was a perfect time for the trip. Our captain timed it perfectly to see many birds coming in to roost for the night. Both he and the naturalist were great at spotting secretive birds. It was neat to see them still genuinely excited to spot birds. One might think it would be a ho hum experience after making 2 or 3 trips per day all summer. Very knowledgeable about birds, flora, fauna and the Jersey shore in general.

Awesome Experience! This will be a staple of our future trips to Cape May for sure. - The captain and guide were so incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. My wife and I are not avid bird watchers by any stretch, but the tour was super approachable for all knowledge levels.

bird bonanza - can’t recommend the Sunset cruise enough! Excellent for birders of any level. Always Our favorite thing to do when we are visiting Cape May. We really got our moneys worth, and it was obvious the captain was going to do whatever it took for us to see as many great birds as possible.

Pleasant evening on Cape May’s marshes and waterways - And Patty were awesome hosts with an extensive knowledge of the island aviary. They still get so excited when they see some of these birds They had some drinks, nonalcoholic, and bags of snacks for a $1 each The sunset was magnificent! They provided us with binoculars as well and took time to show us where things were if we were missing it.
