A forever memory with the family that does not break the bank - The first say how professional captain Bryan’s team was he explained to us what we could expect. The time in each area was just enough. Snorkeling was fantastic. Petting the rays with the family memories will last a lifetime even starfish Alley was great. I would highly recommend Captain Bryan‘s excursion he is generous with his knowledge and his staff are very professional. I also liked the complementary water and soda.

Captain Joel and his crew are Outstanding ! - Outstanding excursion !!! Captain Joel and his crew were so prepared and so helpful . The snorkeling and stingray city were breathtaking! Gentle rays everywhere . Great for families but maybe not little ones Sometimes the waves are a little hard for kids to swim in . Remember to bring cash to Tip your crew. They worked above and beyond to help everyone and very few people tipped them. They also travel with a photographer for great family memories. Thank you to captain Joel and your entire crew. You did an outstanding Job !!!

First visit to Grand Cayman. - Snorkeling was great. The stingray experience was awesome. The crew was terrific. The starfish point visit was exceptional. Could not have asked for better weather and calmer seas.

Spring break - We visited during spring break so the stops were crowded. Captain Joel and team were very friendly and knowledgeable. We had a great time! The check in process at the cruise port was a bit confusing and chaotic but several ships arrived at once.

This is who you want to book with! Recommended by a friend to us,and we recommend them to you!! - We got here by recommendation from a friend who has booked with Captain Bryan's multiple times. The crew went above and beyond. We came by cruise ship. We were told by the cruise line we wouldn't get off the boat in time for the trip. I called and let them know we weren't going to make it. However, somehow we managed to get off the boat an hour before we were told we could. We got to the bus area and the staff made special accommodations to get us to their boat and we made the tour!! The tour was absolutely awesome!! Our guide was very knowledgeable about all the sea creatures we saw and we saw so many different things!! They also had a photographer on board and we were able to purchase our pictures. Everything about this trip was awesome. I highly recommend Captain Bryan's and will absolutely book them again in the future!!

Skip Captain Bryan’s and go to Red Sail Sports!!!! - Horrible customer service. Cancelled on us last minute after we were already here and I emailed them to see where they were. Woman on the phone completely unapologetic and wouldn’t let me speak. Said it was because of weather, but it was definitely because they didn’t have enough people sign up. Maybe that’s because of how they treat people? Anyway, went across the road to Red Sail Sports and got on a wonderful boat immediately. Skip captain Bryan’s and go for professionals.
