Fantastic trip! Capt. very knowledgeable. Saw lots of Whooping Cranes plus other birds. Everyone in TX should do this trip and also support Crane conservation efforts, including allowing water to flow down TX rivers to provide vital freshwater inflows.
We thoroughly enjoyed our birding tour on the Skimmer with Capt. Tommy. I would give it 5 stars, but the sound system is lacking and we could only understand about 1/2 of what Capt. Tommy was saying. We will definitely go back, I just hope they've tuned their sound system to make it a 5 star experience.
We went on the sunset tour on a Saturday night. We were running a little late and everyone was on the boat, ready to depart. The amazing staff called us to make sure we were coming. They didn't just leave us behind which was so thoughtful and we were so appreciative. The boat ride was amazing. We were allowed to stand on the bow and enjoy the speed and waves. When we arrived at our destination we saw cranes and dolphins, quite a few dolphins which was an added bonus since we were only expecting to see the sunset. Don't forget to take your drinks and snacks. The 1st mate was helpful and sweet. She offered us water and made sure we were comfortable and happy. We have been on other dolphin / sunset cruises but this by far was our favorite. Thank you so much for an amazing time. It's hard to make two teenage boys smile but they truly enjoyed themselves.
The best boat ride ever! The kids had a blast and the Captain was the best! No complaints here. Even saw couple of dolphins! ❤️
Great way to see the Whooping Cranes, tons of other birds and wildlife. The captain was very knowledgeable, and was able to get us close enough to the Whoopers for good photography without disturbing them. An excellent experience.
