Wow!! Captain Dan was the real deal. Not only did 4 teenage boys have the time of their lives, they walked away having learned how to wake surf! You don't just get a captain who drives a boat, you get a coach! He was incredibly patient and went above and beyond any expectation I could have had. Thank you for the wonderful memories. We will definitely be back!

We had a shifting schedule because of the weather and we went ahead with the tour on Dan’s speed boat despite a slight drizzle. Boy were we in for a treat! We covered a lot of the lake and saw the top 3 largest homes in Minnetonka and more. We were taking in the sights with detailed narration and when done would cruise to another side of the lake. Our teenage kids and our older cousins from Boston thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Highly recommend Dan for his professionalism, friendliness and knowledge!
We had an amazing experience on the boat trip with Captain Dan! He was incredibly knowledgeable and shared a lot of interesting information about the lake. What really stood out was how prepared he was—when the temperature dropped, he provided blankets and towels, which was a lifesaver since some of us got wet. He also made sure we had water if anyone got thirsty. Captain Dan is a great guy, and I absolutely loved the trip. I would definitely take it again!

We have zero experience with boats and are far from outdoorsy, but on a whim decided to experience a tiny bit of Minnesota lake adventure on our short vacation, and Google didn’t steer me wrong. Communication was fantastic and Dan was able to accommodate our 2 hour excursion same day. My preteen has horrible anxiety, but I knew he would absolutely love to go tubing on the lake once he got brave enough to experience something completely out of his element. Lots of encouragement and letting him go at his own pace was key and he did indeed love his experience on Lake Minnetonka! We felt safe 💯 of the time and would highly recommend to anyone wanting to get away and experience the lake with someone who knows what they are doing. Thanks again, Captain Dan! We’ll be back!
