About this tour

Set out from Panama City Beach on a 90-minute tiki boat cruise through Grand Lagoon, with the shores of St. Andrews State Park and Shell Island as your backdrop. Keep an eye on the water for dolphins, then settle into the easygoing rhythm of tropical music and coastal scenery.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 5 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Panama City Beach
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.4. Top 46% in Panama City Beach means it ranks in the top 46% of tours in Panama City Beach by this score.
