tamilyn Posted January 31, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I posted on Port of Call board but no response. Hoping someone could recommend a private tour operator in Grand Cayman. Would like to do a catamaran tour of the island, preferably without snorkeling or swimming with stingrays, but would consider anything. Would like to go to Rum Point but can't find anything. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSCruiser Posted January 31, 2014 #3 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Nativeways tours has a tour called Rays Reef Rum Point. After a stingray city visit and a snorkel stop, the afternoon is spent at Rum Point, with lunch included. Nativeways has a website, take a look.

EviesCruisin Posted January 31, 2014 #6 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I second this. You can stay on the boat. Snorkeling stop is 20 minutes and stingrays maybe 30. Comfortable boat, friendly crew and rum point was pretty. I don't snorkel due to my irrational fear of fish lol - but still enjoyed the tour. Got in the water at stingray city for about 2 minutes until the fish showed up haha. Had a wonderful day and lunch was included.

EviesCruisin Posted January 31, 2014 #7 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Most of the ways that I saw to get to rum point was either rent a car or this native way tour. I would do it anyways and stay on the boat for the stops and enjoy the ride and the blue blue blue water.

PSCruiser Posted January 31, 2014 #8 Share Posted January 31, 2014 They do NOT want snorkeling.... Yes, but I figured if they stay on the boat it would be pretty much what they want, except not a catamaran. I've always thought that on a sunny day, that ride between the dock and Stingray City, over that white sand bottom, is the most stunning water in the Caribbean! Additionally, Stingray City can be an interesting stop even when viewed from the boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrD Posted January 31, 2014 #9 Share Posted January 31, 2014 We were very happy with Fat Fish Adventures, not sue if they offer the tour you're interested in but they have a great website. http://fatfishadventures.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njoyndride Posted January 31, 2014 #11 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Another vote for Nativeway, they will do private/custom tours. That being said, my husband does not snorkel and enjoyed the time at Rum Point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They customized a tour for my family and it was the best day ever. They are the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big bro Posted January 31, 2014 #14 Share Posted January 31, 2014 We did a private tour with Stingray Sailing. The gentelmans name is "Captain Chip" and this was by far the best excursion we have ever taken in 9 cruises. He can take you to view the Stingrays but also customized the tour to include whatever it was the guests wanted to do. We researched alot prior to deciding and we were glad we did. He has several reviews on Tripadvisor. We were unsure about swimming with the Stingrays but glad we did. Experience of a lifetime. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
