Great experience! Lauren was great and took care of everything! Very professional

Great staff

It was great! Wish I had a little more time to explore historic sites on the island.

The map provided while on the island was difficult to follow. Seems it needs to be updated and made more reader-friendly. It was frustrating trying to follow the map.  This made it harder to get to desired sites and get back to the dock for a meal and re-boarding on the ferry on time..

Review of Ferry Ride to Daufuskie Island

Nice day—great boat ride—professional staff.

Ferry

This was a very relaxed float with an informative guide. We would do it again in a heartbeat but we were a bit disappointed in the pace of the trip and the ground covered during the 90 minute time allotted.

Very relaxing outing!

We happened upon an entire pod of dolphins that we followed for quite some time. They were fascinating to watch. I enjoyed the commentary regarding the history of the area. The boat ride was very relaxing.

View

I so enjoyed the sightseeing cruise. The staff and Captain were wonderful. Many places to sit, including an air conditioned area. We chose this cruise because they also have a bathroom. Snacks overpriced,  though. They take your picture before boarding that you can purchase. Thank you!

Loved it!

The Island was really cool and we had a great day the only thing that was a bummer about the day was how slow the golf carts went and it took a really long time to get anyone on the island because of how slow they are other than that good time

So fun!

Very interesting and interactive experience, learning about the shrimping industry and experiencing the process first hand with a small boat, crew and guests.

We had a great time on the sunset cruise.  Very interesting and informative.  The tour guides were personable and knowledgeable providing great insight.  The dolphins were amazing too!

Great Sunset cruise

We had a great time on our sunset dolphin-watching cruise, and the dolphins certainly did not disappoint.  Our guide was very personable, welcoming, and knowledgeable.  Only negative was that the check-in was a bit confusing, as the signage wasn't quite clear and we were waiting dockside to check-in, but the check-in was actually in a building before the parking lot.
