Savannah Harbor Cruises — Local services in Savannah

This was an absolutely awesome experience. First of all let me say the Captain and First Mate were exceptionally friendly & accommodating. The Captain would stop any time dolphins or wildlife were spotted, turn the boat around as many times as needed to get better angles for everyone to see, etc. Not only that but it was very relaxed and the information was presented in a fun, engaging way rather than the typical scripted, school lecture type way. The boat was of adequate size for the amount of people on it. It didn’t feel like you were crammed into a sardine can and you could stand or sit as desired. There were restrooms aboard, but it was a bit rough- no flushing of napkin products & not very comfortable so best to go beforehand but they ARE available if needed. They offered snacks and drinks for purchase upon request, but I didn’t partake so I can’t comment about that. The ride was smooth overall, but had some expected choppiness from the wake of various other boats, turns, etc. If you’re prone to motion sickness you might want to bring Dramamine. I usually get horribly motion sick (car, plane, train, etc), but with the cool ocean breeze and the captain’s good piloting abilities I ended up not needing to take anything nor feeling sick. It was nice. Of note: this is NOT a large, enclosed vessel so it is best not to wear formal attire. The floor will be slightly wet from ocean spray, and the wind flows strongly throughout the entire area of the boat so comfortable, temperature appropriate clothing is best. The total length of the tour felt like the perfect amount of time on the water, and my teenagers and I very much enjoyed everything about this tour. The sunset portion was absolutely amazing and a beautiful end to the day. I’d 100% recommend this company & that crew (a female Captain & a curly, brown haired male First Mate whose names I...

Fantastic Experience! Would give 6 stars if we could!! A must visit in Savannah! We saw dolphins within ten minutes! Visiting Savannah multiple times a year for the past three years, we have taken every top rated tour and (boat and/or bus) cruise in town, and this was BY FAR THE BEST experience in town! Hands down!

Capt Birdy and Tanner were so fun and hospitable! They are knowledgeable of local wildlife and Savannah history.

We saw dolphins within ten minutes! And then saw them continually for the rest of the trip. We traveled on the river and into the intercostal waterway. We also traveled back to the Savannah river walk, dock, and bridge for sunset pictures.

You can BYOB and food! For the evening/sunset tour highly recommend it! They have snacks but they are really just pack lunch sides (individual chips, Cheetos, etc). Also recommend bringing water.

There is a bathroom (marine toilet on the back of the boat within a lockable room) for all to use.

Highly recommend the later/evening tour as the dolphins usually travel upriver in the evening to eat and protect themselves at night (according to Capt Birdie and Tanner).

Get sea sick? No problem! The boat is very very stable with smooth water throughout 99% of the ride and only a few waves from other small boats the other 1% of the time that hardly rock the boat (small speed bump in the car is rockier).

Originally, we were scheduled for the 3:30 pm, but a thunderstorm came through cancelling the trip. They allowed us to choose between a full refund or moving to the evening/sunset trip with no extra charge. Very kind! We chose the sunset cruise and so...

I searched among many and many different Savannah type cruises, and am I glad I chose this one as my choice. Not only within the first 5 minutes were we surrounded by dolphins, the captain followed them so we could experience them more, and then she asked us if we wanted to follow them more or 2 other options, sorry I’m kind of ADHD so I have forgotten the other options 😂 but we chose one of those 2 cause just within 30 minutes I got a lifetime worth of dolphin watching it was amazing! The whole experience was awesome! And if I make it to Savannah again in the future I’m going to fit in this cruise again one was or another. I put video and pictures on my Snapchat of everything we were seeing and my mother in law replied back saying she had went on a cruise like this one when she came to Savannah, was a different company and that they didn’t see even one dolphin for the whole 2 or so hours of the cruise she went on and it was for dolphin viewing as well so she was very let down and asked me about this company cause next time she comes down she’s going through this company. It was truly amazing and awesome. There was only ONE thing that I wasn’t particularly fond of, a little bag of chips was $2. I get needing to make money, but I don’t know, $2 for a small bag seemed a little excessive. But that’s just my opinion 🤷‍♀️ other than that I can easily overlook that and support them all over again. I mean you are allowed to bring drinks and snacks on if you’d like, so it isn’t like they don’t allow it and make you buy theirs. Great,...
