42-46 ft private yacht for up to 12 on Miami Bay, 2 or 4 hours. Fuel, music, and cooler included, plus flexible sightseeing.
“The overall experience was good not great. The yacht was clean and comfortable. We were expecting to see more nature and swimming in open waters but this trip is about the sightseeing of Miami skyline and mansions. Really not interested in that. The crew mate Layling Briceno was very helpful and had smile on her face. The captain (Diaz) of the yacht had good knowledge about the boats and city but he was not interested or was proactive to make this trip memorable. We had to ask about the things that could be done and not wasting our four hours just sitting in the yacht.”

“I would not have done this experience if I had to pick again, as described it was planned to go to the sandbar and snorkeling experience and it was none of that. The captain took us to a spot 10 min away from the dock and we swam for a bit. There was a floating mat. But that was it, the blue tooth speaker was malfunctioning and we arrived earlier than the expected 2 hour duration. They charged 849+100 for a captains fee to literally take us and a few girls in a boat ride to swim. Not worth it all. Call and confirm the experience before hand because this…”

“It was OK. We expected way more for what we paid. There was no champagne. An hour prior to our activity there was a Captain switch. The captain new captain was Daniel I believe and he was a bit rude and not welcoming. The meeting point is very hard to find. I would recommend being 45 minutes to an hour early to get situated. Wasn’t the worst or the best thing I’ve ever done.”

“It's a rip off right from the beginning. When you pay the money online, you are led to believe that that's all it cost for the yaht ride rental, it isn't the case. You not only pay that money but you also pay another $150 (Cash) to the captain, $50/Gas, and another $20 for a sailing certificate online. When you get to the dock they may have changed the boat that you saw in the picture and paid for. Also, they called us a couple of hours before we were supposed to get on the boat and told us that we had to look for our own captains out of…”
