Ultimate Snorkel

Had a great time. Owner and son took us out, showed us around and let us pet a shark. Very great time. Highly recommend.

At first I wasn't sure about it, but when got started it was amazing. Our guide was fun and engaging. We got see unbelievable ocean sites, including many types of sea life..Thank you!

Great time especially with only the 2 of us on board unlike people who booked through Carnival and there were so many people on board their boats. It was great that they took just the 2 of us.

Great snorkeling trip had a blast!!! Small group so got to see more but went to some very crowded areas and others made the second spot a little murky in the shallower reef. Overall a great value and awesome time.

This was an awesome experience! The ship captain was knowledgeable and friendly. When we spotted a sea turtle he dove down with our camera to get a picture for us! :) We will likely tour with them again when we are back this summer!

Darrel was great!

The people who ran this trip were extremely friendly and accommodating. They were knowledgeable and really cared about us having a fun time! The guide was really helpful and fun. He offered to take our picture and showed us a lot of details that we might not have noticed otherwise! :) Definitely would do again!

We had a great time on the Ultimate Snorkel with Papa J Tours. Shark Bait and all the guys made this a very pleasurable experience despite our inexperience at snorkeling. Boat and all equipment was clean and organized. They obviously take great pride in their business.

fantastic snorkel in a small group. Guide was wonderful, caring and informative.

The guides were very interested in our enjoyment of our snorkeling.The captian was teaching another the way to help the clients keep happy and interested. He went out of his way to make sure we enjoyed every minute of our time on the boat and in the water. The sighting of the fish and sharks were exciting to us and the crew was more than happy to take our pictures in or out of the water.As I told one person booking on another venture its always better with a smaller group this tour reinforced the personal touch is the best.Jim and Cherie

Enjoyed the snorkel trip and would highly recommend to others. I especially like that it was small as opposed to the large cruise trips. We had individual attention and were treated great!!

Small group

The guide was very nice and he tried his best. I know you can't control the fish.

This was a small excursion to snorkel 2 areas with one of them being ""the wall"" where the ocean bottom just drops off to 7,000 feet. Our guides were very knowledgeable and friendly, even jumping into the water with us to calm our fears and impart their knowledge of the area. A very fun adventure with professional staff! I would definitely recommend this company.

Our Ultimate snorkel was perfect. The best part is the guides were showing us the best place to see the reef. Introducing us to the fish that live there. For me being a timid snorkeler they made me feel safe.. I loved this excursion.

Shore excursion was less expenses then ship, we were in a very small group, which meant it was easy to keep track of my grand daughter, and they took pics of us and sent us photos at no extra charge.

This was a good excursion. The guides could have explained some things better. My wife is not a great swimmer and she had no idea how to blow up her inflatable life jacket. The guides were very good divers and actually caught a small shark for us to get up close to and pet. Very cool.

From the second we boarded our boat this was a fantastic experience. We booked this in advance, avoiding the excursions offered on our cruise ship and were we glad. Our cruise ship cancelled their offered excursion (and we were on a 5 star luxury cruise) due to not enough people signing up. We were the only 2 people on Shore Excursions Ultimate Snorkel and they treated us excellent - it was like a private charter. The equipment was first rate, the captain was in the water with us the entire time showing us all the underwater sights, we had a stop on the wall which was amazing, and the finale was petting a nurse shark and her baby. Our captain had fish food to draw hundreds of fish to us and this was truly one of our best ever snorkeling experiences. We are both very experienced scuba divers and snorkelers and I give this excursion the highest rating possible, for equipment, avoiding crowds, knowledgeable guide and captain, and overall pleasant experience.

We had two very experienced guides who were very patient with everyone. They made the trip fun and exciting, especially when they let us pet a nurse shark. They would feed the fish and have schools of fish swimming all around them, which made for some great photo moments. When we booked this excursion they sent us very detailed instructions on how to meet the boat, which made it very easy to find. We loved that the excursion did not take all day and gave us time to explore Turks and Caicos. This excursion seemed much better than the other snorkeling trips offered, due to the guides and the size of the group. I think you could get lost at sea with the size of the other groups, who looked like they could not even swim around without bumping in to other snorkelers.

great guides smaller boat better customer service ;)

I booked this excursion mainly for my daughter.I don't swim and I was not sure I would participate. Our guides were so knowledgeable and friendly,that they took away my fear of snorkeling for the first time. It was an incredible experience. I loved it. will probably do it again I recommend Papa J Tour for a snorkeling experience in Grand Turk.

Loved how the guides had us surrounded by beautiful fish and also brought us to a nurse shark and we were able to touch it. Loved it.

Guide in the water brought food for the fish. He also found a reef shark for us to photograph and pet!

Instructions on how to find the provider were very clear. The guides were great and it was a much more personalized experience than what the cruise ship was doing. The provider has two boats that can take a maximum of 10 people each. Contrast that to a catamaran holding 50. Provider emailed us pictures from our adeventure which was a nice added bonus.

A first for my boyfriend and a second chance to get the hang of snorkeling...I did it...and he loved the experience. Another tick on my Bucket List...also got to pet a SHARK...can you believe that??? Our guides were fabulous.

they were great guys and took us on a great trip. the shelf was very impressive. could use a sgin or something as to where to meet up. we found them fine, but were a little unsure.
