5October 10th Tour
It was an amazing experience! We got to see plenty of dolphins and other wildlife like bald eagles and birds. Our guides did a fantastic job of informing us about dolphins and the ecosystem around them. It was a once and a lifetime experience.
5Relaxing Wildlife Cruise
This tour exceed our expectations. The guides were informative while still being entertaining (so many good puns for the dolphins). The boat was simple but clean and comfortable — most importantly everyone had a good view. Best of all we saw tons of wildlife - two pods of dolphins cormorants, herons and bald eagles…oh and cannot forget the tiniest fiddler crab. Good job Tanner fishing him off the floating grass. Would highly recommend this tour for a relaxing ride down the Savannah River to enjoy learning about its essential ecosystem that seems to coexist with the industry along the river.
5We saw dolphins when thin...

5Great time, saw many...
Great time, saw many dolphins! Would recommend to anyone visiting Savannah. Our captain and mate were very nice.
5Worth the time and money
Oh my goodness, captain John was great! So knowledgeable. A wealth of information was shared. He knew right where to find the dolphins and took us there. We saw more that 30 of them. It was a great time. I’d do it again without hesitation!

About Savannah
Savannah is a Georgia coastal city of oak-shaded squares, Spanish moss, cobbled riverfront streets and beautifully kept Southern architecture.
Savannah was founded in 1733 by James Oglethorpe as the first city of the colony of Georgia, and he laid it out on a grid built around small public squares. Twenty-two of the squares survive, shaded by live oaks draped in Spanish moss and filled with fountains and monuments. Forsyth Park, with its white fountain, is the largest green space in the historic district, and the Cathedral of St John the Baptist rises with twin spires.
