4.Miami: 2 Hour Private Yacht Cruise

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 899 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $98

You’ll spend two hours on a private Miami yacht with your own group, captain, restroom, cooler with ice, and Bluetooth audio. The route passes Bayside Marketplace, Star Island, and celebrity homes. Captain Jorge, Alex, Eduardo, Juan, and others have earned especially strong praise, but captain and fuel fees are paid separately.

“Don’t book with this app! You get charged more than they tell you. My trip total was $361 including the captain fee and fuel. They tricked me and had me pay the fuel and captain fee separate (to the actual company) and still charged my card $361. I ended up paying a total of $501. I would not have booked had I known it was going to be that much! Then when I called the rep hung up on me. NEVER EVER AGAIN. DONT BOOK WITH THEM.”
