We had a great experience with gilligans and would definitely return again! It was nice to use a pontoon and go out to crab island. Stay was very nice and accommodating

I was late arriving and they still made sure I enjoyed my trip. The pontoon booking was easy and affordable. I will definitely book more trips with them in the future.

The crew was very cheerful, accommodating, and provided a fun atmosphere for all.

My family had a blast!

great time!!

We had a nice time on the tour. The staff and crew were nice. It was disappointing to receive notification of the canceled 9am tour when we showed up after paying. They were nice and gave us parking, but a telephone call before we arrived would have been nice. We had to find things to fill up a four hour space of time. Additionally, hearing a more inclusive music selection would have made it much more enjoyable. Music can create a happy place, but it everyone needs to hear something that's relatable. Maybe take some requests.
