How much does a private eco tour trip cost?

Is booking a guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is in the wild every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of having a great trip.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

What month is best for eco tour tours?

The most popular season for eco tour tours is spring, and most people book their trips 7 days in advance.

    We had such a great time on our fishing charter with Dillon! My kids and I had an absolute blast. We caught tons of great fish and learned a few fishing tricks too. The whole experience was so much fun & Dillon made it a great time from start to finish. It was the perfect way to have fun family time, and we would definitely do it again. Highly recommend this charter!

    Trip: Key West Birding Tour

    Could not ask for a better captain, a nicer day or a more delicious beach BBQ! We got in an amazing snorkel, lots of deep sea fishing and ate the freshest fish of our lives right on the beach grill. Cannon and Jamie make you feel like family from the get go and took great care of us all afternoon and into the evening. What an amazing team and a memorable experience of true Belizean hospitality. Thank you both! The barracuda was spectacular. Watching Cannon pull it in on a hand line was so fun. What a day!!
