Grand Cayman island tour/turtle farm

[wanderlust7]

We're looking to do the island tour/turtle farm on Grand Cayman. I've seen Captain Marvin mentioned a few times. Are there other non-DCL companies I should look at?

How long is the tour? Captain Marvin's website says 1 hour 45 minutes, but I've seen 2 1/2 hours mentioned. How long is the stop at the turtle farm and is it guided? I would love feedback from people who have done the tour recently.

Thanks!

I have done the DCL Island tour and it was good. I personally here would recommend the DCL tour. Now normally I do private tours in each port. But the reason I say DCL here is the tendering. You do not dock so you go over in smaller boats to the port. This slows it all down. DCL tours get priority getting off and grand Cayman us a scramble due to its odd port hours.

You need to add an hour from arrival and add a buffer of an hour at the end. It's worth it to go to DCL on this tour the benefits out weight the cost.
