Buying tickets and finding a convenient time to go on the tour was super easy. (Just keep in mind that El Conquistador boat tour is paperless, so you don't get a ticket or boarding passes like other tours) Both the Captains were really nice and super helpful. We were able to see some Dolphins and learn about places around the... More

Can't say enough about how much fun this was, we took the hour long ride and well worth the money. We got rained out back in march and these guys were very accommodating for letting us come back down. I would go every weekend if I could!! Fast fast fast!!! Need I say more!! More

My husband and I went on this wonderful boat in St. Augustine on Sunday. Phil and his assistant Paul were very polite, fun, helpful and showed us quite a bit in one hour! Weather was great and the Captain Phil really knew how to show us a wonderful time. We enjoyed the "G Force" he created with doing donut turns.... More

We had a wonderful time! We were scheduled to go on Saturday, but rains came in, and the company canceled all rides thankfully. They called and let us know, and although they are usually closed on Sunday, they called and let us know that they would reschedule Sunday, so we would not have to miss it since we were leaving...

A high speed cigarette boat thrill ride with old south hospitality and great site seeing. I go to St Augustine 2-3 times a year and this will be a part of my trip at least once each year. True family fun yet never boring for the thrill seeker in each one of us. My 12 yr old son changed his... More
