What Our Clients Are Saying
Loved by Friends & Families

Captain Kirt made this experience absolutely amazing!  I'm not big on riding boats or big bodies of water, but I was extremely comfortable and LOVING every minute of it. Captain Kirt is one great tour guide.  Very knowledgeable about the horses, their history and everything about the island!  Check out Riptide Pony Tour, you won't be disappointed!
