Welcome to Pensacola

Pensacola is the westernmost city in the Florida Panhandle and the 1559 site of the first Spanish settlement in what later became the continental United States. Colonial Pensacola was the capital of British West Florida, and Fort George saw the longest siege of the American Revolution. Historic Pensacola Village and the harbor district are easy to tour on foot or by Segway scooter. Pensacola Bay and its tributary rivers offer great inshore fishing. The warm turquoise Gulf of Mexico waters along Gulf Islands National Seashore are perfect for dolphin watching, and the long white-sand beach invites visitors to learn how to surf the gentle Gulf waves or paddle a kayak on the calm inshore waters.

Nice and pleasant add dolphins and babies
Pensacola Beach Jolly Dolphin Cruise and Scenic Bay Tour
Nice and pleasant add dolphins and babies
Shane B, Apr 2024
Me and my family had a good time on the outing. Got to see plenty of dolphins. We stayed in this one sectionehere the dolphins continually played which was nice but expected to be more informative about the bay since it is called a scenic bay tour even in the namesake. But would go again esp w the kiddos and not worry about locations or the bay area..

While walking Duel started the tour telling about the history of Pensacola & how it got the name & also about the food such interesting history he’s so knowledgeable. Each stop we would sample some cuisine & he would explain about that dish & the history of the restaurants. The food truck court was amazing! Also sampled a savory panini @ a bookstore/coffee shop. To top the end of the tour we stopped @ Bubba’s Sweet Spot, we got a sample bag of a couple pieces of fudge & a chocolate turtle I will say the red velvet fudge was delicious that I had to buy a few more. I will be making another trip there to get that peanut butter cup! Thanks for an awesome tour Duel!
Great tour, well worth it!

We booked this not knowing what to expect….would recommend it to everyone. Our tour guide, Terry, was amazing and very knowledgeable. He gave us some great tips on other things to do and see while in the area. We learned more on this tour than we would have by exploring by ourselves! It’s a must!!

10/10 recommend this tour and will be coming back to go retro for more tours in the near future. Our tour guide yes he was newer to the area but was very knowledgeable and impressed me and my fiancée. He deserves praise. ‍♀️

X6605NNroberts, Oct 2023
Great to see the dolphins. We took the trip that included the Blue Angels air show. We were not prepared to spend 90 minutes on a sand dune. Perhaps our fault for not reading closer. Other than that a great experience. The staff was entertaining and knowledgeable.
Very interesting info!
Seville Savories Palafox Trot Tour
Very interesting info!
Elizabeth H, Oct 2023
We did the Palafox Trot, a day trip. Duel knows a lot about the local history and the local food scene and he enthusiastically shares! We visited 5 unique from each other places. And the info he shared about so many restaurants makes us want to visit them. Places that I already had on my list to visit and places I did not know anything about. We had plenty of food for a lunch even though we took our dessert “to go”. The pace was fairly slow. We had older people in our group and the walking wasn’t an issue for them. Tip - our group parked one car near the end and one at the beginning. Another tip - you can’t see the address on a building - 6 E Wright St. But it is the large white house on the corner of Palafox and Wright. Duel met us at the fountain there. A GPS gets you to a side street.
Peaceful, fun and informative!
