Well worth the money
Captain Mario was very helpful and friendly when we had to switch our date due to weather. Captain Rico and Fred took us out to see the islands which had amazing views of sea turtles and marine life and got to see Gilligan's island. They have is food too feed the fish at pearl island and got us a private photo with a baby pig. They made sure we had everything we needed and all we could drink and eat while on the boat. The conch cerviche at the end of the tour was excellent. It was one of the best experiences we had while on our trip to the Bahamas.

Amazing tour!
This trip was absolutely amazing! First off, Mario, the Captain, made a 40 minute drive to pick us up because our Vrbo was on the other end of the island. What a great guy. He talked with us and gave a little history of the island along the way. When we got to the boat, we met Rico and Fred, our guides. They were fun and fantastic. They served snacks, plenty of drinks, and delicious sandwiches. We went to Pig Beach and fed the pigs, went snorkeling, and also swam with turtles. We also got to see the island that is in the intro to Gilligan's Island tv show. The water was crystal clear and wonderfully warm. If you are thinking of booking an excursion, I would certainly recommend Captain Mario and his great crew at Ultimate SeaXscapes. Forget the rest and call the best.

Amazing Tour with Amazing Host/Crew
Captain Mario and his crew, Rico, Fred and his wife went above and beyond and made this tour one of the best we have ever had. From picking us up at the hotel and getting to the boat, everything was fantastic. Rico and Fred were very attentive and made sure we were safe and all the while enjoying a fantastic tour. I cannot stress how Capt Mario and all treated us exceptionally well. He was by far one of the most gracious host we have encountered. I rarely leave reviews but he and his staff definitely deserve every bit of the 5 star rating. He recommended other places to visit as well and took us to an amazing Conch salad place. Thank you!!

Truly the ULTIMATE escape!
Since we were going in a bit of the off season, the tour was not fully booked but Captain Mario made things happen for us! He was able to adapt and provide us with a great trip. Our tour hosts on ship were Fred and Rico and they were beyond awesome! Knowledgeable and informative and FUN! They were able to figure out best places to go in best order so we weren’t part of any crowds. They also really helped find the best spots for snorkeling, finding turtles and having some fun with the pigs. Lunch started with a great trip to the fish docks where we learned about conch and how they are caught and prepared into an amazing conch salad. Because we had a small group, we actually ate on the island at the quintessential beachside shack with amazing views. All together a great value for the money and a great escape for a few hours. Well done and THANK YOU!,

You will not regret this!!!
This was one of the best days of my life! Rico, Fred, Caption Mario, and his wife truly made our experience better than I could have ever imagined. They picked us up promptly at our hotel took us right to the boat. Our first stop was snorkeling. Rico and Fred were attentive and helpful throughout the whole experience. They provided all the gear we needed, good, drinks, and snacks. After snorkeling we saw the pigs. They were adorable. Everyone was willing to assist and take pictures and videos on the island. Finally, we swam with the turtles. Rico was very helpful in guiding us to find the turtles in the water. It was a truly breathtaking and indescribable experience. This tour is truly priceless and I would recommend it with my whole heart! You will not regret it. Thank you Caption Mario and friends for an amazing day and going above and beyond.

Fantastic Day!
Mario and his crew do a fantastic job! Pick up at hotel is a plus for this tour (not many offer hotel pick ups). Smaller group on boat gives you a more personal experience. The stops to snorkel (lots of fish) and swim with the turtles was great. The highlight of the trip is pig beach where you can feed them treats while they swim around you. Crew was hands on. Plenty of drinks and Mario's wife makes the best sandwiches for your lunch with different options too! Definitely recommend! We will be back!

Great team thank you so much
Everyone here was so helpful. We started the trip off great and did get to snorkel. We saw a lot of fish! Unfortunately my girlfriend got sea sick and started to not feel well. The team was so helpful and went out of their way to bring us back to the dock so that she could feel better. The customer service does not get better than this. I appreciate everyone on the boat and everyone who helped! Definitely book with them if you want a team to take care of you and actually care about the well being of their guests. Pick up and drop off was great. Especially helping us get from the dock back to the hotel, he was so kind and helped my girlfriend to relax (plus he rushed back to help us!) thank you so much!

Nice Experience
We had a nice time on this excursion because it was a group of us and we make everything fun however, it wasn't as great as we expected it to be. When we got to our first snorkeling location it took about 20 min for our driver to situate the boat appropriately before we could jump off (there were a few other boats in the same area as well). We snorkeled for a bit and saw many fish and I got stung by a jelly fish which added to the fun and experience but that didn't ruin anything for me. From here we pulled up to the area where we were supposed to be snorkeling with the sea turtles and we saw a few turtles from the boat but apparently we were running late for the "swimming with pigs" experience that we were told we could not stop but would stop on our way back. So we went to the beach where we'd be with the pigs and this was fun and a pretty cool experience. You're given a quick briefing on the do's and don'ts with the pigs and given a cup with food for the pigs. Once the pigs come out you can feed them and take as many pictures as you want with them which was nice. Once we left the beach, we headed back to the area where we were to snorkel with the sea turtles, however to our disappointment, there were absolutely no turtles around. Everyone jumped into the water and out of a group of 11 people not a single person saw a turtle. We think they did a drive by in the beginning so we can see them at that point because they knew there would be none around by the time we went back since it was later in the day. Also, we think that since there were other boats/snorkelers there the first time we drove past that perhaps there was food being thrown in to attract the turtles so when we went back we asked if they could throw food in since we were the only ones there but we were told no because we didn't want any uninvited guests. But, while snorkeling with the fish which was less than a 5 minute boat drive, they did throw food out so we were a bit confused. But overall it was a nice time and we were given sandwiches and unlimited drinks (which you'll need because that sun is hot!)
