    I highly recommend! Captain Mike was great and very knowledgable. He can identify all the ponies and taught us so much. He knows the area like the back of his hand and answered all of our questions. Unfortunately, the ponies were all hiding during our tour so we didn't see any. He took us all the way around the island and found dolphins for us instead. He was able to fit me in for free two days later. During my second trip, we saw tons of ponies and were able to get really close. It was magical. If you love ponies, this is the tour for you.
