Great tour ! I personally got extremely motion sick when the boat stopped for snorkeling because the waters were unusually rough. The crew was very attentive to be sure that I was ok and I did enjoy getting off at Iguana to enjoy the beach !

Great experience - snorkelling was fabulous - guides friendly and fun. I would recommend this trip
Great excursions and the food was great! The staff were nice and I feel like you get a lot For what you pay for.
Our tour was so great. I was a first time snorkeler abs they took extra precautions to make sure I felt safe. We all felt like family at the end. We even saw one of our guides the next day and he remembered us and was just as friendly as the day before. They were also very knowledgeable and able to answer all of the questions we had about the island.
Great Vibes, great people. P and B were awesome. Saw a shipwreck as well. We recommend this tour 100/100. Great first trip to Turks with amazing people
We had a 4 hour boat ride to see the sights and enjoy the view. Our Carson was Lickey and his co-captain was Fiyo! They were amazing.
It was an amazing experience. The two crew members were so nice and funny, they made it so fun. We even had one of the known dolphins following the boat when we first took off. Highly recommend!!!
Our experience was great! The fee was 135.00 for me and my husband It was a 4 hour trip.. The boat picked us up right from our resort. The boat staff were very friendly and enjoyable. The captain is a native of the islands and gave us information as we went along. He always saw to it that we knew the does and don’ts as we snorkeled on the reef. Afterwards, we went to Half Moon Bay. It was the most beautiful place I ever seen. It had clear blue shallow water. It was AMAZING! We were also provided with drinks and sandwiches that hit the spot. Overall it was a great experience.
What a wonderful day we had on this tour! We sat out from the beach and after about a 20 minute ride stopped and were able to get into the water with dozens of turtles around us in turtle Cove! Captain Keith did a fantastic job navigating our boat and keeping an eye out for the turtles! Lunch on board was wonderful, an island recipe for snapper was made fresh… And the rum punch was to die for! Everybody on board had a wonderful time! Particular highlight was stopping at Pine Key for a swim in they most beautiful waters I've ever seen 💙
The experience was amazing! The crew was great! They were very attentive and made the experience much more enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this tour.
We did this excursion for the third year in a row and it keeps getting better and better! We did a private half day boat with Captain Licky and first mate Fiyo who we specifically requested because of how great they are! We went to a new spot to go snorkeling and we saw a ton of turtles and fish (with Fiyo’s expertise), then we went to a private beach for a lobster and snapper lunch (that Captain Licky prepared and was delicious). Finally we went to Noah’s ark for a little bit! As usual this was the highlight of our trip, and Licky and Fiyo were exceptional! We could not recommend this more!!
We had an amazing time snorkeling and visiting Half Moon Bay and Iguana Island, though we only saw one small iguana, lol. Our guide was amazing and made sure to keep an eye on everyone and make safety a priority. The only thing that disturbed me that had nothing to do with our trip was when we pulled up to shore at the end of our tour, another boat by the same company pulled up next to us after taking some Edward Jones men out on a fishing trip. They came back with a dead baby nurse shark. It was very upsetting to see. Why is this company allowing tourists to kill sharks??!! This is not only cruel, but also very wasteful since I don't imagine anyone needs to eat shark meat.
The places we visited were beautiful, and snorkeling at the reef was especially incredible. I felt very safe, as the guide stays with you throughout the snorkeling experience, and the boat crew was very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, the customer service over the phone was a completely different experience. The person answering the messages was not friendly or helpful at all. We were having trouble finding which boat belonged to our tour, and instead of assisting us, they provided absolutely no help. Someone handling customer service should be welcoming and willing to assist guests, especially when they are trying to locate their tour.
Crew was fun and made sure we had a good time. The sndwiches and snacks were a nice touch and there was plenty of beer and rum punch.
Such an incredible tour! Really enjoyed all the stops, especially the snorkeling and the sand bar! The tour guides were very helpful and took many pictures for us as well.
My 18 year old daughter won't stop talking about being able to snorkel with a reef shark! First stop was at the 3rd largest reef in the world for snorkeling. First thing everyone saw before we even got into the water was a 7 foot reef shark! The crew jokingly told us it was a dolphin but when they saw we were hesitant to get in the water, they lead the way and jumped in first! That helped us all feel safe and so we soon followed! I'm glad we did. We then made two more stops, the last one being Iguana island. That part was self tour which was fine. They had sandwiches, drinks and snacks for us on the boat. Boat also had a diving board and slide. They were also cheaper than what Club Med was offering us which is where we stayed. They picked us up on the beach at Club Med and dropped us back of there. I'd definitely recommend this crew again!
Amazing staff and cool experience
We had the best experience of our trip!! Cpt.Vardo & 1st lLt. Baba we’re very experienced and professional. We felt safe and secure in our excursion. They were fun and had the best personalities! They were the height of island life! I have never been on an excursion and had so much fun and also felt safe while I was drinking. The drinks were flowing and the vibes were vibing! An amazing experience all around! Ask for Cpt. Vardo & 1st Lt. Baba!
That is is fun. You need to be able to swim. You see a lot!! The crew was amazing!! I saw a nurse shark!!
The truly amazing Caicos Dream Tour under supervision of a wise captain Lushwin, and Dimo / Adam as members of his crew. Very strong professionals who care for all passengers and provide the truly amazing experience. Super strongly recommended!!
Carlos and the crew are amazing! Just Do It! #BushMechanic
Wonderful Snorkeling Experience! My family (6 adults 76 to 37 and 2 children 11 and 8) had an amazing experience. This was my children's first time snorkeling and wow! we saw so much! All of the crew were amazing with my kiddos! On the boat tour we saw a giant sea turtle. While snorkeling we saw a lot of different fish including parrot fish and a lemon shark. Iguana Island was amazing! We saw numerous Iguanas, different sizes and colors. The Boat Crew Big, Baba and Dante were amazing! Highly Recommend.
Really a great trip. The crew was amazing, boat was very nice, and the snorkeling was terrific.
Great experience - a ton of fun. Can’t recommend it enough
Had a wonderful time! Carlos and the entire crew were so great! They were very entertaining and fun!!! Bobo was very informative and helpful and made our experience very enjoyable! I would highly recommend taking this tour in Turks and Caicos, you won’t regret it!😊
We had an incredible time on Boat A with Caicos Dream Tours! The afternoon half-day snorkeling and Iguana Island tour was one of the highlights of our trip. The snorkeling was beautiful, the water was crystal clear, and Iguana Island was such a unique experience. Baba and Carlos were absolutely fantastic. They kept the entire group laughing, made the trip fun from start to finish, and always made safety a priority. Their energy, professionalism, and personalities really elevated the experience and made it memorable for everyone on board. If you’re visiting Turks and Caicos, don’t miss this tour. Boat A, Baba, and Carlos made for a perfect afternoon on the water. Highly recommend!
It was a good excursion. Snorkeling was excellent. Got to see whale sharks swimming around the boat and with us during snorkeling. Pretty cool. Got to see a manta ray but no turtles. Crew was great! Fun. Rum punch is ok.... LOL
We had an absolutely extraordinary experience on this tour! From beginning to end, everything exceeded our expectations. The organization, attention to detail, and overall experience were exceptional. The staff/team was professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel comfortable throughout the entire tour. Every moment felt memorable and well planned. We truly appreciated the effort put into making this such a special experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an unforgettable and unique experience. We would definitely do it again!
What an amazing day! We were so disappointed initially with our trip because it rained the whole time but these people made it happen. Eventhough it was a little rainy and cloudy it was absolutely an incredible experience. The snorkeling was fantastic and they made really good food on the boat at iguana Island. Big Lou and Kimmy are fabulous guides.
Perfect way to spend an afternoon in Providenciales. Dante and Johnny are the best
The check in staff was friendly and helpful with phone calls and making sure we boarded the proper boat. The staff was friendly and Baba was very helpful with drinks and activities aboard the BigBoy boat along with Carlos the captain. Everyone had a great time and I am thankful to the crew for keeping us safe and ensuring we had a great time, which we did. I 100% recommend this cruise and snorkel as other in the area were cancelling due to weather and not filling their boat. Caicos Dream Tours was outstanding.
The crew was very friendly, funny, and accommodating. Had a great time on this trip. We seen a lot of fish and a shark while snorkeling.
Boat trip was so much fun. Got to do snorkeling, saw colorful fishes. Also visited half moon bay/ iguana island which is stunning. Captain and co captain were friendly and at the same time followed the safety rules which made us feel safer. They provided us with nice refreshments and lunch. We also got to swim which was like an icing on the cake.
You only get limited snorkeling - less than an hour at one reef. The snorkeling was ok but not great. Too much time just boating around and at iguana island. The crew was too lay back - rather bored.
We had a great time snorkeling. Iguana island and sand bar area was good also. The crew was fun. Lunch was satisfying and never ending rum punch. Would definitely do this again.
Fabulous experience! The staff are fun and know how to create a great guest experience. We snorkeled at the reef and had the good fortune to see two Caribbean Reef Sharks up close! The slide off the boat is a lot of fun as was swimming at iguana island. I highly recommend Caicos Dream Adventures !
Excellent sandbar snorkel trip . We also did their adult only tour earlier on the week . Highly recommend
Had an amazing time with Abner and Billy! It was truly a vibe the whole time with them! The music, drinks and evening else was on point!
Fantastic half day boat tour including not just snorkeling but a few beach stops plus boat sliding fun. Recommend: yes! Highlights: - Billed as a snorkeling trip but had more stops for non snorkelers - Loved the small stretches of beaches on other islands. Clear water to wade and swim in with only a few boats of people around, We went to Iguana island and half moon bay. - Open water in Turks and Caicos is breathtakingly beautiful. - Pickup right on the beach in front of the hotels--no need to go get a taxi to the marina - Slide and jump platform which they opened up for 1 of the stops. They soaped the slide so people could easily slide down and one of the staff demonstrated fun jumps off the platform on the side. - Good amount of rum punch, beer, soda, and water included - Fun music on board to add to the experience - Helpful, fun staff of 3 - For snorklers, one of the staff went out with everyone as a guide - Surprisingly delicious and fresh half sandwiches: thick ham or turkey with cheese, lettuce, soft bread and condiments on the side. Usually the food isn't great so was excited for this. Also got small bag of chips abd a tall mixed fresh fruit cup. - 2 levels with covered seating below and open air up top by the captain Midlights: - For snorklers just the first stop was snorkeling for about 45 minutes of the 4 hours Lowlights: - Water was in tiny cups so hard to stay hydrated with those Had an amazing afternoon and would highly recommend it.
Amazing experience. Best part of our trip. Highly recommend! Our teenagers loved it as well. Fun way to spend a 1/2 day!
Amazing tour. My family went snorkeling. Spotted a whale and her baby. Iguana Island was nice. The captain Pop was awesome. Would recommend doing the morning tour.
Pros- 1.staff is friendly, engaging and nice 2. Drink selection was good and plentiful 3. Iguana island was unique and very interesting if you are interested in iguanas. Cons- 1. If there are any waves or swells at the time of your travels be prepared for rocky seas. 2. The boarding of the boat by a dock was treacherous and do they dropped people off on the beach while the boat was teetering back and forth. Very dangerous especially if you are with small children, elderly or aren’t fit. 3. Snorkeling was very meh. They don’t bring you to a very good spot. Not many fish , too turbulent. I snorkel often on vacation and this wasn’t impressive at all. Overall, we had an interesting day but I thought the captain and his practices didn’t fill me with confidence and were generally unsafe .
Tour was fantastic! The boat picks you up right on the beach of your resort. Crew was great! Food and drink aplenty. Snorkel and Iguana Island both super cool
Positives: The snorkeling was was good, we also got to see a dolphin and a whale and when we say the whale in the distance they made the effort to try and get closer. Improvements and things to note: The description said "gourmet sandwiches" the reality was a thin slide of lunch meat with a kraft cheese single on a bun. Iguana Island wasn't a whole lot to see. We did see two iguanas, but were there a while and most people ended up going back to sit on the boat waiting to leave. We were longer at the island then snorkeling. Tip: If you are germaphobe you may wish to bring your own disinfection wipes. The snorkels are reused, for example compared to a trip I did in Mexico where people received a disposable tip to go in your mouth or an entire disposable snorkel. They did swish them around in dish soap, but we had disinfection wipes and used those to wipe them out even after their swish in the soap. In the end, I think you could skip the Iguana Island portion and just look for a snorkeling excursion.
2nd year we done snorkeling and Iguana Island. Carlos is a great captain and his team pays attention to details in addition to keeping it fun. This year we spotted a dolphin and mother and calf humpback whales in addition to a great snorkeling experience. We were literally swimming in schools of different tropical fish. Outstanding!
What a wonderful way to spend an afternoon! Our crew was warm and friendly, the tour was fantastic as was the snorkeling, and the iguanas were so amazing to see in person. I would definitely repeat the experience!
Have done this tour multiple times and always find it enjoyable and relaxing . Singular complaint - was asked to arrive at pick up point at 1230but did not get on boat until 120 and then didn’t 40 min doing other pickups - fortunately the trip improved from there . Captain and mates were excellent as usual
We booked a private tour. There were 12 of us ages 6months to 69! Everyone had a fantastic time! Great snorkeling, visited Noah’s Ark, iguanas cay, and a trip through the canal to see the beautiful houses and turtles. Lunch they prepared was Amazing! At the end we watched the sunset and played on the boat’s slide, jumped off the top and swan down to pick up sand dollars! Wish we had done it earlier in the week….would have done it twice!
This tour was awesome. Great staff, great people, great tour. A+++.. i would go again.
Had a GREAT afternoon out on the Island Dream boat, with Captain Kevin and Novel! We went to Iguana Island, snorkeled a reef between there and Half Moon Bay, and then had lunch at Half Moon Bay, which is a strip of land with beach on both sides. It was the perfect amount of time and they were wonderful hosts, pointing out interesting things about the shore line (like where the rich folks live), and making sure we were all well taken care of. They provided us a sandwich and fruit for lunch, and we had water, lots of different sodas, beer and rum punch to choose from to drink. I would highly recommend this excursion with this company!!
