Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I had a RIB boat tour with Rebel Marine as part of a business trip to the UK.
My colleagues and I had a great time seeing the Needles, despite it being a cold day.
I would highly recommend this tour for those seeking a bit of a thrill and beautiful scenery. Very professional and great as a team activity!

Did RYA Power Boat Level 2 Course with Rebel Marine. Unlike some other providers rebel marine have an ultra modern fleet of perfectly maintained RIB's, motor boats and yachts. Our RIB was spotless and very high spec. It even had suspension seats. Our instructor was amazing and very knowledgeable. He was calm, clear and concise. Its was such an enjoyable premium experience. Their base is in Cowes, 5 minutes from the fast catamaran Redjet service from Southampton. Its a great setting both shoreside and afloat. Lots of interesting things to see and do whilst learning. Would highly recommend their services to both Island and Mainlanders.

Enjoyed a brilliant thrilling adrenaline packed RIB ride out to the Needles from Cowes over 2 HRS. Perfect weather, brilliant skipper and felt very safe at all times.
Took us into beautiful areas like Newtown Creek.
Very professional company with safety put first including COVID-19 procedures.
A brilliant trip.

We went today from Cowes on the Lightening Rebel. It was fantastic fun from the James Bond music and the 600hp pushing us over the water.
The whole family had a complete blast. The kids and I particularly enjoyed going very very fast. My husband loved going to see the Solent forts and the new aircraft carriers in Portsmouth harbour.
A really good fun afternoon out and worth every penny

Surprised our teenage daughters who were moaning like Kevin “ we don’t want to do some lame boat trip” . Brilliant to see them laugh and squeal as we raced across the Solent, just the best hour spent and Matt is a legend!

Has the best day in the Rib with Matt today for my birthday! Was a bit tentative but he broke me in gently and absolutely loved it by the end of the day! Teenage kids thoroughly enjoyed it! Beautiful lunch at The George in Yarmouth and great close up views of The Needles. Totally recommend! Just awesome!!!

Hi there
Can you please advise how many people in total?
By RIB
Port Solent to armament museum 45 mins - 1hr
Armament to submarine museum 25 mins
Sub museum to the folly 1hr
Folly to Port solent direct 1hr 30mins (without competition)
Can you advise how long you would like to spend at each museum, and roughly what your start and end times would be.
So we can work out something to suit your timings.
Many thanks
Mat
