We got an up close experience with the Dolphins. Captain Dave gots us real close for videos. He showed us all around the harbor.
Captain Sam was great. She made the cruise fun and pleasantly informative as she is through the harbor. We ended up on the evening ride and sunset with the dolphins was magical.
The captain was amazing and friendly I think She needs a pay raise one of the best times of my life !!!!!
Such a fun experience I would highly recommend, captain was so friendly and fun! My kids loved it. We would definitely do it again
Just bring your drinks and cameras and get ready for the best part of your beach trip. Captain Sam was an absolute hoot. She kept us laughing and entertained while multi-tasking as our personal photographer, tour guide, and dolphin whisperer. We are already planning our next girls trip to Destin just so we can go back out with Sam!
I had an amazing adventure with Cruisin’ Tiki Destin today! Our captain, Harrison Shuler, made the experience unforgettable. We took the Harbor Cruise (1.5 hours) and had the perfect mix of sightseeing, relaxation, and fun. One of the highlights was docking at Crab Island, where we got to hop in the water and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. After that, we cruised around, taking in stunning waterfront homes and learning interesting facts about the area. Harrison was a fantastic captain—knowledgeable, friendly, and full of great recommendations for local restaurants and attractions. He’s been a captain for five years, and it definitely shows! The music selection was on point, and the whole experience was 10/10. Whether you’re looking for a private escape or a fun group outing, Cruisin’ Tiki Destin is the way to go. I highly recommend this tour, and if you get Captain Harrison, make sure to show him some love! Can’t wait to do it again!
We enjoyed our experience and our captain, Bailey, was excellent and very knowledgeable. We got to see dolphins and enjoyed the nice day. We would definitely like to do this again when the weather is a bit warmer and we can get in the water.
We've done Cruisin' Tikis twice and it's been fantastic both times! We've gone as a couple on the sunset cruise with other couples and BYOB'd and again on a daytime cruise with family. We rented a private charter with our kids and family and had a spectacular time. Its a really fun and unique way to see the harbor, and of course dolphin, jellyfish, and all the fun boats and houses! We had Sam this time and she was amazing. She allowed the kids to play captain and just overall made the 90 minutes more enjoyable. I strongly recommend! There are other tiki companies with larger boats, but I personally really enjoy the intimacy of these 6 person ones! Definitely a must do!
Our Donut's Captain, Sam was so awesome!! We had lots of fun cruising up & down the river for 1.5 hours, thank you very much for her time and attention, I/we greatly appreciate it. ❤
On time , great customer experience, great captain Mike and awesome arrangements that made our experience great. Tiki bar was clean with all required things. Mike our captain instructed well and made us educated about flora and fauna near us. Over all must go experience for tiki bar.
The tiki cruise is so much fun! We booked the 90 minute Harbor/Sandbar cruise. When we arrived the captain asked us if we would mind going to crab island instead, as requested by another couple on our cruise. We had a great time and I wish I could remember our captain's name - he was so personable and friendly. He joined us in the water the whole time. I wish we could have gone on all of their cruise types but we were only in town for the weekend and didn't have time. Easy to book, everything went smoothly, and we had the best time. Cruisin Tikis was a definite highlight of our time in Destin!
Fun little tour to do with the family in the evening. We brought a cooler with some drinks and some snacks to enjoy on the ride. The kids and adults both enjoyed the trip, the tour, and our guide.
It was absolutely amazing! The most fun we had on our trip. Our Captain was Murray, and he was exceptional! The coolest guy on the island. You have not experienced Destin until you’ve done a Tiki Cruise!
Amazing tour guide, super cool tiki ride, perfect seat to an all around view of the ocean. If you go, book with Bailey and enjoy the great vibes. Thank you
The entire cruise was great. Captain Murray was great to talk with and was very knowledgeable of the area. I would recommend 100%!
The tiki cruise was a blast. Our captain, Brian was amazing, he pointed out celebrities homes, crab island and was super fun. We saw many dolphins so close, so we got great pictures and videos of them. We used Destin Habor Haulers to get us to the docks. Great drivers and company.
It was beautiful scenery , great company. Captain Kirk was great he told us the history of the area and gave us great suggestions for sight seeing and eating.
Captain Murray delivered a 5-star experience throughout our harbor sightseeing adventure ! He has more knowledge than we will ever know - easily spotted dolphins, had coolers with water, pointed out all the highlights ! He was fantastic!
Our Captain Maurry was excellent & professional We had a great time & are doing the Christmas parade this year
Beautiful day to explore the harbor. The tiki was Perfect and Our captain Sam was awesome, She made sure we saw the dolphins up close, had fun, took pics and shared some stories. Overall great experience!
Six of us reserved the 90 minute cruise with Captain Bailey. Had an excellent time on a beautiful day. Captain Bailey sighted a family of dolphins and we were able to clearly see the 2 adults and 4 young dolphins. The Tikis accommodate 6 passengers very well. Bring your drinks and snacks, and ice is provided onboard. Thanks, Captain Bailey, for a memorable afternoon!
Capt. Harrison was awesome we had a great time and great people with us. highly recommend taking a longer trip. crab island was beautiful even in October
The only reason I gave 4 stars is because Viator gave me a 2pm reservation but through Cruising Tikis it was a 12pm reservation so I had to reschedule for a sunset cruise which I really enjoyed but if we didn't decide to stay the night then that wouldn't have worked out but the cruise itself was amazing and we had a great Captain named Josh.
Tiki was cool, captain nice, we looked at expensive homes and boats around inlets of bay. That was our sight seeing
Our Captain (Sam) was the best part of the trip because she made the cruise memorable for all of us with her knowledge of the area being toured, the stories she shared, and the passion she has being a captain of the tiki cruises. We had such a great time, we are booking another tour with her when our family is in town next week !
Captain was not engaged and boring. Experience was fun but not with the money. I feel it should have been a different guided tour
Best thing we did on our vacation. Sam the captain was amazing. She was fun and informative. And she let me jump in and feel the water on crab island.
We had a wonderful time with Captain Brian. He was very professional and we felt comply safe of the water with him as our captain. Unfortunately the weather prediction was not good and we barely made it to the island when we had to turn back. Disappointed but totally grateful for the Captain’s cautious decision. He even gave us extra time to enjoy ourselves in the channel just outside our dock. We only had an hour n half but it was delightful. The island is definitely a fun place to explore! Thanks Captain n the crew!
Capt. Murray was a great captain. He gave us a lot of information about the history of the area. Highly recommend
Large vessel made it easy to get a glimpse of the dolphins. The captain knew all the best spots to see them. The weather cooperated and we had an awesome sunset as well.
Our Captain was great. Had a great time. Next time I would book early so that you have all the times to choose from.
We had the most amazing time on this cruise. If you are booking, ASK FOR CAPTAIN MURRAY! He was so fun and made our experience 10 times better. He also has great taste in music! Our cruise was at night and Captain Murray made sure we saw all of the attractions around the harbor. He has been a captain for this cruise for 6 years and is a local, so he will be sure to tell you about all of the best activities and restaurants in Destin. This cruise if great with a group of friends or even for a date night activity! Highly recommend! -Madison, Aaron, and friends
Had a wonderful time. It started to rain on us towards the end and that gave us a different perspective. Sam was a great Captain and did a great job pointing out points of interest.
Captain Ryan was an amazing tour guide. He was fun, safe and informative. Followed all the rules and didn’t leave the dock until reviewing all the safety information. We had a blast! Highly recommend it. For someone who is NOT a water person, it was amazingly fun!! Will do it again.
This Tour was the highlight of my vacation! Sam our captain was amazing she went above and beyond to show us all the highlights of the harbor, crab island was so beautiful. Getting to see some of my favorite country singers vacation houses was pretty awesome as well. I will defiantly be booking again when we come back, and I hope we get to request captain Sam! thanks for a great time!
Our trip was great .. Brandon was a great caption … Super fun and relaxing! He went out of way for us to have a great trip
Cruising around on a Tiki Bar boat was a lot of fun. Captain Ryan was very knowledgeable about the area and showed us some really interesting sites. I would do this trip again.
Our captain Brandon was exceptional and engaging, completely pleased. Would have been great had we had four friends join us as opposed to four people we did not know but the did not deter us from enjoying our time with Brandon. If we travel back to Destin we will do this again, thank you.
Had a blast! Our poor Captain Harrison did a great job of putting up with us w/ limited judgement 😂
Capt Sam is a boss lady!! She was very nice, really fun and personable. We had a great trip and will def do it again!
Excellent time spent touring the harbor with Captain Keith. We and 2 other couples were entertained and informed by the Captain. Byob, but be sure to use the facilities on shore before boarding the tiki bar as there is no head on the boat, or stopping on the 2 hr cruise. Well worth the price, and be sure to tip your Captain!
Captain Sam was the best!! She is very experienced with lots of knowledge about the area. We watched 2 pods of dolphins and she toured us around the harbor telling us about the different homes and boats. My husband even was able to drive. I highly recommend this tour and Captain Sam
This was the pretext relaxing boat ride me and the girls all wanted! We got to chat with the Captain a bit about Destin but he also understood when we just wanted to relax and chat together. Overall everything was easy and enjoyable!
We had a blast! The Captain of the Tikki joined right in and was very awesome of giving us insight to things that we asked about! Since it was in the off season we had our own boat. We loved this experience and would book again!
Capt. Keith was so funny and and fun! We loved our ride around the harbor. We've been wanting to try this for a couple years and will be doing it as often as possible! Great to meet other couples on their anniversary as well as ours and one on their honeymoon. Absolutely wort it!!
We had a great time with Captain Sam! She was great and taught us to play bottle bash at crab island! I always wanted to ride the tiki and so glad we did!
Our captain/tour guide, Keith! So much fun going in and out of the harbor and canals. Keith was very fun and enthusiastic!
Such an amazing 1.5 hours with 2 friends for a cruise! Captian Steve was amazing and so knowledgeable
Captain Sean was amazing and very friendly this is exactly what we needed after a very busy few days it was relaxing and we enjoyed seeing the harbor
