The reservation and check in process was a bit sketchy, but it is worth the hassle. We opted for the 30-minute North Biscayne tour. After figuring out the parking situation, we waited in what appeared to be hotel lobby. Our flight time came and went, we were nervous. Then the tour guide arrived. He apologized for the wait. He led us out to the marina and asked us to sit in a waiting area for a few minutes while he shuttled a couple ahead of us. Upon his return, he led us to a mid-sized boat and ferried us out to the middle of the bay. It was really cool to see the seaplane come in for a landing and then meet up with the boat in the middle of the bay. The boat ride in the bay was added value. The people in the plane jumped in the boat and then we loaded into the plane. It was a Cessna 172 Skyhawk Seaplane. A little older but very well maintained. Our pilot was friendly and very professional. He explained everything he was doing and all the safety features. Our take off was exciting. Our flight was at the end of the day, and we were able to see an absolutely amazing sunset behind the Miami skyline. We flew over the Biscayne National Park. Our pilot narrated the trip the whole way. We flew over the big cruise ships as we approached our landing. The pilot landed the plane in the middle of the bay with a perfect landing. We then met our boat and ferried back to the marina. Our experience was fun, exciting, and well worth the price. The team was very professional. My wife and I felt very safe with the whole flight operation. If anyone else decides to book with this company, do not worry about the check in process, it will be ok. Hang in there, it is worth it. We met the owner during this tour. He is wonderful person. This is a small company that provides a great experience. We highly recommend this trip.
