    Incredible host and guide

    The whole experience was incredible. Dan bent over backwards to ensure we had a memorable trip. We thought we would only get a quick pass of the Christmas lights. Dan not only passed several times, he angled the boat to take pictures of us with the lights, and perfect sunset pics too! Thank you Dan. Highly recommend An Adventure in Paradise!

    Great Sunset/Nights of Lights boat tour with Captain Dan

    Captain Dan with Adventure in Paradise provided us with a fun & excellent adventure on our tour with him. He is committed to providing his guests with a most enjoyable experience and he is entertaining as well. We felt very comfortable and safe on his boat and very confident in him as our Captain. He was very thoughtful in taking photos for us with the sunset and then with Nights of Lights in the background. He is also a great communicator in keeping us advised of the weather, time & place to meet him, etc. Thank you, Captain Dan!!

    Response from the operator: Claudet, Thank you for choosing Adventure In Paradise! I had a great time! Please come back when it is warmer, and we will float on the tubes on the islands. Captain Dan

    Beautiful home

    Beautiful home. Nice and modern. Clean. Neighborhood was quiet. Loved the marshy area. Plenty of room in common areas. Bedrooms upstairs were comfy and cozy

    Response from the operator: Sandy, I think your review was for your Airbnb. But thank you anyway. Captain Dan

    Nights of Lights is Amazing

    We took my teenage daughter for a private tour with Captain Dan and had a wonderful night. When I booked, Captain Dan reached out right away to share details. We enjoyed hearing his stories and he was accommodating to stop for pictures wherever we wanted. We enjoyed the blankets, hot chocolate, and Christmas music while enjoying the amazing lights. Look forward to booking again in the summer for another experience!

    Response from the operator: Jennifer, Thank you for choosing me to be part of your vacation. I had a great time. Please come back again when it is warmer, and we can play on an island. Captain Dan

    Perfect Trip for the Big Question

    Captain Dan is awesome; Hire this man! I booked with Captian Dan about 8 weeks out and he called almost every week to check on me and help plan the special moment. He had the best spot and best time of day for the big question, already in mind and it worked out perfectly. When I arrived at the dock, early, he was already there, set up and ready to go, he had a beautiful boat and provided all the details of the trip before we started out. He has a ton of great stories and made sure we hit all the best spots for pictures! He treated us to some great hot chocolate and beautiful nighttime views to end the evening with. Hire this man, you will not be disappointed

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for letting me be part of your special day! Beautiful couple with a great life ahead of you. Looking forward to seeing the two of you again. Captain Dan

    Nights of Lights Private Boat Tour St. Augustine, max 6 passenger: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for St Augustine.

    How much does Nights of Lights Private Boat Tour St. Augustine, max 6 passenger cost?

    +

    Prices start at $395 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in St Augustine usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Nights of Lights Private Boat Tour St. Augustine, max 6 passenger take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in St Augustine is not rushed.

    Is Nights of Lights Private Boat Tour St. Augustine, max 6 passenger worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in St Augustine, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Nights of Lights Private Boat Tour St. Augustine, max 6 passenger?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Nights of Lights Private Boat Tour St. Augustine, max 6 passenger suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Nights of Lights Private Boat Tour St. Augustine, max 6 passenger?

    +

    Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in St Augustine can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in St Augustine and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Nights of Lights Private Boat Tour St. Augustine, max 6 passenger start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central St Augustine within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in St Augustine?

    +

    St Augustine is walkable history: Castillo de San Marcos, Spanish quarter walking tours, trolley loops, lighthouse climbs and some of the best-attended ghost tours in the country. Guide storytelling quality is the main variable. On Outty we rank every St Augustine experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Medieval Torture Museum with Ghost Hunting and Tiny Art Gallery, St. Augustine's Wine, Cocktail and Food Experience, Dolphin and Wildlife Adventure of St. Augustine. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit St Augustine?

    +

    February to May and September to November. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in St Augustine?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Nights of Lights Private Boat Tour St. Augustine, max 6 passenger?

    +

    Included: Carbonated beverages; and Snacks. Not included: Alcoholic beverages. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Nights of Lights Private Boat Tour St. Augustine, max 6 passenger?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Nights of Lights Private Boat Tour St. Augustine, max 6 passenger wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Nights of Lights Private Boat Tour St. Augustine, max 6 passenger if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
