I had the pleasure of joining Captain Derlano Mcminns for a three-hour tour, and it truly exceeded all my expectations. From start to finish, Captain Derlano was welcoming, friendly, and attentive, making sure everyone felt comfortable and excited for the adventure ahead. One of the most exciting parts of the tour was swimming with sea turtles and the schools of colorful fish. To top it all off, we were able to enjoy an island all to ourselves. If you’re looking for a memorable adventure with a knowledgeable and friendly guide, I highly recommend booking a tour with Captain Derlano Mcminns. It was a fantastic experience that I’ll never forget!
Thank you Brian for your review, Im glad you had a great time. Hope to see you again!
Captin Lano was the absolute best. He took us all around snorkeling, sight seeing and to a private beach. He even brought toys for my 3 kiddos to play with in the water. His music selection for the boat ride was also amazing! We can’t wait to come back to the bahamas and have him as a captain again. Take the trip with captin Lano, you will not regret it!!!
Captain Delano knew everything about the island, he was able to answer all our questions and provide fun tid bits of info. He was friendly, funny, and reliable. He made sure we felt safe on the boat but still allowed us to have fun. We are a group of 5 college students, and had a great time, would highly recommend to anyone.
This company was fantastic. They were on time and made sure we had a great time. We wanted to snorkel and we weren’t disappointed. Captain Derlano Mcminns was easy to talk to and very responsive in arranging the trip. He sent Captain Sterlin to pick us up on the day of our trip. Captain Sterlin took us to two reefs and made sure my family had a great time! I would recommend them to anyone wanting to book a private boat in Nassau. We would definitely use them again.
We had the best day. The crew was so friendly and extremely helpful. They were always anticipating our needs and made sure we had everything we needed at every stop. Felt extremely safe and taken care of. We were worried about the wind and they upgraded our boat to make our ride more enjoyable.
