Our first trip to Grand Cayman was May 2009. We were on a cruise with Carnival Cruiseline and one of our stops was Georgetown, Grand Cayman. What a colorful and clean town! The shops were great and the merchants very friendly and helpful. One of our excursions was to the Stingray City Sandbar to be able to snorkel and swim... more

We booked this trip from reading reviews on trip advisor and were not disappointed. It was much cheaper than the trip via the cruise, it was really well organised you couldn't miss the team on the pier and although my husband was a bit dubious about the state of the bus it was more than adequate. After a short drive... more

We sailed with Captain Chip and Mark on August 31, 2009. When we got off the tender from our cruise ship Chip was waiting for us. It was a short ride to to the catamaran. Chip was very knowledgeable about the island having been born there and it was interesting to learn that his father was an American. As soon... more

If you are taking this tour, use Moby Dick Tours as your tour operator. They are the best! They met us at the dock, took us by shuttle to the boat and then to a snorkeling site and the site with the sting rays. Very friendly and personable staff. They knew the sting rays exceptionally well and did everything they... more

We did Soto's 2 hour Coral Gardens+Stingray City cruise and we just loved the whole thing. The staff were great, from the first phone call to make the reservation, to the short briefings at the sites, to the pick up and drop-off at our condo. The van driver, captain and the assistant/photographer on the boat were all very nice and... more

I went last Sunday to Stingray city (again) with Moby dick tour, it was a blast as usual. The crew is fantastic, funny and reliable, they really love the stingrays. They hold them for you and they make sure you have the time of your life! They have been voted the best stingray city tour by Cayman residents. They even... more

My husband and I were travelling aboard the Carnival Freedom...7/26-8/1. We usually just tour on our own when we are off the ship..we really had wanted to see the stingrays...so we had read previous Trip Advisor reports and picked Stingray Sailing the number 1 - stingray/snorkeling attraction. We found out quickly why everyone thinks they are great. I e-mailed them... more

We just return last week (8-10-09) from Grand Cayman and I can't say enough about Sotos Sting Ray city tour. Very personal and polite staff and the boat was not crowded which enabled us plenty of time to pet many stingrays and take plenty of photos. Hats off to Sotos and their team! Mark more

I almost forgot to send in my review! It's important to me that I give my review because the Trip Advisor reviews were exactly why I chose Moby Dick Tours. My daughter was married on the Carnival Freedom ship in May, and we had a group of 20 aboard for the wedding. The highlight, other than the wedding was taking... more

Mobydicktours' Stingray City excursion is wonderful! You're taken out on a very comfortable boat ride where the guides provide loads of fascinating information about the Stingrays - with humorous insight to boot. The sandbar they take you to is teeming with the friendly Stingrays, and guides made sure that everyone who wanted to hold or feed one got to do... more
