Boat afternoon
Daniel was an amazing captain so accommodating and had a great time
via Tripadvisor
Great experience with Daniel
Good afternoon, I would like to give a recommendation about Captained Yacht Rental Miami Florida. A week ago I was in Florida. My wife and I decided to take a boat trip, where Captain Daniel Maqueira was our trip captain. I would like to say that it was a magnificent excursion where Captain Daniel on the tour of the bay gave us a magnificent detailed explanation of the entire bay, he was very friendly and Daniel's charisma made us spend a wonderful day. I would like to thank Daniel very much and I recommend to everyone who is interested in taking a boat trip to contact Captain Daniel and you will have a great day

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Miami Captained Yacht Rental: Sunset Options: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Miami.
How much does Private Miami Captained Yacht Rental: Sunset Options cost?
+
Prices start at $199 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Miami usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Miami Captained Yacht Rental: Sunset Options 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 Miami is not rushed.
Is Private Miami Captained Yacht Rental: Sunset Options worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 83 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 627 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Miami, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Miami Captained Yacht Rental: Sunset Options?
+
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 Private Miami Captained Yacht Rental: Sunset Options 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 Private Miami Captained Yacht Rental: Sunset Options?
+
Around 219 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 Miami 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 Miami and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Miami Captained Yacht Rental: Sunset Options 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 Miami 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 Miami?
+
Miami splits between the water and the neighbourhoods. Biscayne Bay boat tours, Key Biscayne snorkelling and Everglades airboats cover the first, while Wynwood mural walks, Little Havana food crawls and South Beach deco tours cover the second. We rank Everglades operators carefully: many depart from Miami but the good ones run their own boats rather than reselling seats. On Outty we rank every Miami experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 2-Hour Miami Private Boat Tour: Skyline & Star Island, The Official Art Deco Walking Tour by The Miami Design Preservation League, Little Havana Food and Walking Tour in Miami. 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 Miami?
+
November to April, dry season, before hurricane and humidity months. 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 Miami?
+
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 Private Miami Captained Yacht Rental: Sunset Options?
+
Included: Bottled water; Cooler with Ice; Restroom; Bluetooth Music System; and Floating Water Mat. Not included: Gratuities; Marina Fee of USD 50 per tour; and Captain Fee of USD 50 per hour. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Private Miami Captained Yacht Rental: Sunset Options?
+
Upon arrival, you will see a white gate. Give your captain a call and he will open the gate and guide you onto the boat! Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Private Miami Captained Yacht Rental: Sunset Options offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private Miami Captained Yacht Rental: Sunset Options?
+
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.
What happens to Private Miami Captained Yacht Rental: Sunset Options if the weather is bad?
+
