This was our second trip with Moby Dick Tours and it was a nice, fun time out in the water. The time went very fast, there’s not a lot of time with the sting rays or snorkeling. I recommend booking earlier in day so the water is calmer. I was a little disappointed as compared to our first trip with Moby Duck tours. They did not talk on the way out about the island or area and any directions were very brief. The crew only got squid out to feed the stingrays after I asked them about it. The best thing about Moby Dick Tours our first time was how well they fed and attracted the sting rays, and kept the sting rays by us. This time I got the feeling they were going to skip the squid entirely had I not said something about it. I also recommend having younger or shorter kids wear a life vest depending on the tide. Our 8 year old had a hard time standing since the water was just at chin level and with a little bit of waves it was easily over her head. With a life vest, it would allow us parents not to be juggling kids(and camera) that are just a bit to short and then the kids can just lift their legs and float if they get a little scared.
Our next stop was for snorkeling. This was the best part of the trip and we saw beautiful coral and fish. One of the crew got in and swam with us, he was excellent with the kids showing them different things he found. Whatever disappointment I had at the stingray site was made up for with the snorkeling, I only wish we had more time. We saw several other tour boats that were jammed packed, there were very few people on our boat which was nice not being crowded.
Overall, it was a nice time. I can tell the equipment and boat are due for some maintenance and I wish they would have given a little history of the area or better directions about the sting rays. If you’re looking for a tour boat while in Grand Cayman I would still recommend Moby Dick Tours.

We had a wonderful day in the Caymans with Moby Dick Tours! Everything went perfectly according to schedule. We truly enjoyed the staff starting from our van driver to our Captain and First Mate. So friendly, helpful and great conversation! I am a novice snorkler and our first mate was patient and informative giving me a quick lesson. Before I knew it, I was off and snorkeling! Such a fun experience, beautiful fish and gorgeous waters...I can't wait to do it again. Of course, the highlight was Stingray City. We've never seen anything like it! The stingray were huge and so friendly....they came right up to the guides like puppy dogs. Our guide knew exactly how to handle "her" and explained everything. From how he knew this was a female, to where to stand, where to touch and where to kiss her! They really took their time making sure each of us had a great experience with the stingray and each of us was able to hold and feed her with his guidance. This is an experience we will never forget!

We booked the Grand Cayman Stingray tour on their website. All was confirmed and they charged my card. On the day of the tour. We were all at meeting point 45 minutes early and we waited for someone from the company to show up...no one bothered. After trying to contact them by email and phone calls, someone finally answered and said they had an emergency and the tour was canceled. They didn’t even send someone to their tent to let everyone waiting know, no email, nothing, they didn’t try to help us in any way. Ruined my trip to Cayman. Stay away from this company if you want to actually do a tour!

We booked this all day island trip for a date we were at Grand Cayman off a cruise ship. Booking from the UK was not a problem, Mark and his team were super helpful and friendly, offering to tailor the day to suit our personal choices and wishlist. Mark is full of knowledge and facts as you drive around, not just your standard Spanish/English invasions and pirate tales, proper interesting stuff. At no point were we forced into shops for shopping we didn't want to do. Instead, we travelled the length and breadth of Grand Cayman, stopping at viewpoints and important places - including a very lovely lunch stop! Thank you Mark and team for a very, very lovely day.

My sister booked this tour and initially when she did I was disappointed. Boy, what a surprise when I had a blast! We were picked up at the cruise port and took a small bus to the marina. The boat was a bit older but still in good shape. Our tour guide William jumped in the water with us and went out of his way to show us lobsters during the snorkel part of the tour. This was a pleasant surprise. They also threw in fish food to bring the fish to us. Very cool.
Next, we traveled 1/4 mile to the stingray area. William again got in the water with us and held the stingray still so we could enjoy our time with it. He made sure everyone got their photo opportunity and was never in any rush. You can choose to stay on the boat if you wish but don't. It's amazing!
We did not book anything through the ship. We did it all on our own. We had plenty of time to get back to the ship.
I'd definitely go back.

The two of us booked this tour through our hotel concierge which she recommended. We were the only two people on this tour. Mark, our guide and driver picked us up at our hotel as scheduled at 9:30 am. We drove through Camana Bay then past Georgetown to our first stop at Smith Cove. Afterwards, we drove to Bodden Town for a stop at Beach Bubbles Soap Factory before continuing on to Rum Point. Next stop was at Starfish Point then we drove by the Davidoff’s Concrete Sculpture Garden.

Lunch was provided with the tour. We had a tasty lunch at Tukka Restaurant which had a great ocean view. After lunch, we visited The Blow Holes, the last stop of the tour. We were then driven back to our hotel. Tour lasted almost 5 hours and we got to see what the North Side and East End of Grand Cayman is like. Mark did a great job in providing a background on the island.

Thank you for your review and the detailed itinerary summary of our time together. It was a pleasure having you both on my tour. The lunch at Tukka is extra special as we sample anything you desire from the menu whilst enjoying the beautiful vista's across the lagoon. I try to cover everything Cayman on this tour, past, present and future and you go away with a complete knowledge of Cayman history and really see beyond the glitz of Seven mile beach. all the best Mark

This is a must do adventure, Mark who was the tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, the experience is excellent, great snorkelling around the reefs but actually being in the water with the stingray is just breathe taking, and if you kiss one you have 7 yrs good luck.

We booked with Moby Dick months ago. When we arrived at Grand Cayman, we found Duncan with the Moby Dick sign. He then sneakily foisted us off onto a tour with Captain Bryan's instead. I suspected this was what was happening, but every time I asked Duncan, he dodged the question and rushed us along. It was very frustrating that he was not honest about what he was doing. While Capt Bryan's was fine, it was actually a longer tour than we had signed up for - it also included Starfish Beach, which was a waste of time and also got us back to port later than we had planned on, which was very stressful.
