Aquarium

Everything was excellent

My friend and I had a blast at the aquarium. It was quick and easy to get the tickets too. Thank you.

Amazing

Even though the ticket buying experience was simple, I never received the email with the actual ticket on it.  I had difficulty getting into the aquarium because I didn't have the actual ticket.

Visit

It was so easy. We had a wonderful time. We were there for 2hrs & only got thru about 1/4 of the Aquarium. We will b back very soon. It's well worth the money. Pitching ur tickets on this app is very easy they txt u ur tickets so all u have do is open up the txt than follow the link & open up the link to pull up ur tickets super simple.

Tampa Aquarium

We're on vacation with no available printer and the voucher says we have to print to enter the Florida aquarium. I called the aquarium and they said we could just show the voucher with the bar code. However there was no bar code on the voucher when it was brought up with a PDF viewer. I emailed the voucher to the person at the aquarium and even she couldn't get it to show a code. Thankfully the aquarium was wonderful to work with and they let us in with the voucher despite it being wrong. It was very stressful to say the least!

Colleen,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. TripShock is a third party booking website. Our listings and voucher are set up per the management or owner's instructions. We're sorry an employee mentioned there would be a barcode when there are none for this particular activity. The listing and voucher do both state that the voucher has to be printed but we are sorry if you missed this information when you purchased it. We are glad to hear you were able to enter the aquarium and enjoyed it. We appreciate your business and thank you for your feedback. TripShock! Director of Sales

No bar code on voucher

My daughter is 3 and quickly fatigued because of the amount of commotion from all the school trips and lots of walking. All the exhibits started to look the same to her. So I’m really glad I found the tickets for a good price on Tripshock. So it was a decent value for money at least.

Really good price on tickets!

First time user of TripShock. I had printed the voucher, and redeeming it at the Florida Aquarium was super easy. I wouldn’t hesitate using this service again for my next day trip activity :)

It was relaxing, fun and friendly! Garrett did a great job, considering he'd only learned the job the night before. He took us to where the dolphins were and we were treated to seeing several different pods and 2 baby dolphins as well.
Worth the cost and very easy to book online.
Well done, Garrett

We were lucky to see a lot of dolphins up close to the boat, both in the bay and the ocean. The weather was nice and the captain found good wind to fill the sails. The first mate was very cool too! Overall a great trip, dolphins, sailing, and a beautiful sunset.

Nice evening

We had a very relaxing, nice time on the cruise. The captain and his mate were awesome . However, next time I will book in the winter months due to the evening rains. Unfortunately there was no wind at all and the sunset kind of sucked that evening! All out of the crew's control, of course! I'll definitely go again!

Sunset cruise

The sunset cruise was nothing less that extraordinary!  It was fun watching the captains control the sails and work as a team. They were attentive, without being over-the-top. They interacted with the guests, took pictures and answered questions. But they also gave the guests time to have their own intimate experience. There was ample time to watch the sunset and the cruise back to the marina was almost as spectacular as the ride to the gulf. The sun had set, the colors in the sky were amazing, and sailing by million dollar mansions was the cherry on top. I one-hundred percent recommend this experience.

Worth Every Penny!

We had a great trip to Shell Key with Robin and Braelynn. They were very knowledgeable and made it fun. They gave my kids each a shark tooth which was really memorable for them.

Great trip

Got us out to shell key quickly and allowed us to see a dolphin pod on the way back in

Smooth ride in

The Hubbard team were very thoughtful and helpful. The trip on the boat was relaxing. Shell Island has a small sand beach surrounding it which is not crowded at all. The water is crystal clear and a nice warm/cool temperature. We found some nice shells but you will need to swim at least 6 feet out and snorkle dive to reach them. Truly enjoyed the entire trip. Highly recommend. :)

Had a great time on this boat ride.  Captain made a special effort to find Dolphins and our grand children loved it.  The crew was very helpful. Would recommend for sure!!!

Great

We saw  dolphins jumping and having fun. The Captain and his first mate kept us entertained. 
I have already told several people this was the best boat trip in the area and to go for sure!! 

Dolphin Adventure

We went 3 years ago in June, this year we were there in April. Last time we had 5 runs with a lot of dolphins following the boat. This year we only had 1 run with dolphins following, at least the grandkids saw a lot of dolphins right at the boat on the 1 run. Can’t blame the boat captain, it’s just they are not that active. It was a good trip anyways

We enjoyed the trip very much. The crew were personable and the others on the trip were as well

Mid day sail

We spent 2½ very relaxing hours on the water with easy tropical music. The other passengers nearby were very pleasant amd fun to talk to. 

We only saw 3 or 4 dolphins,  but that was okay.  Midday is not the best time to see them. 

By no means would I have wanted the captain to talk constantly, but a little information now and then about different places on the shore would have been interesting. 

All on all, a nice ship,  a lovely day cruise.

Beautiful relaxing time on the water

Such a nice trip for a beautiful day! The boat is lovely and the crew fabulous! I cannot wait to go again!
