Great selection of charters in many locations, easily searched by cost, length of time and species, fantastic skippers who do their best to get you on the fish and continue catching, also very good almost instant communication throughout
I have chartered boats via FishingBooker a number of times over a span of several years. I am very satisfied with the service. Good quality boats, knowleadgeable captains, easy to locate and communicate with. You get what you booked, no surprises. And if there are surprises, such as adverse weather, the captain will call you and try to find an alternative time. A highly recommendable service.
My trip was a gift that had to be postponed due to a family emergency. It took 15 days for them return my many calls. Then I was passed around with no one willing to reschedule us. We lost time and money! Beware 😠.
The platform has made it easier for me to manage my charter business, communicate with my clients and provide a variety of payment options. I can manage from my phone while I am on the water or anywhere on the globe. Highly recommend the platform for any charter business.
Alejandro and his crew gave us our best fishing experience yet! They were great from the start! Booking our excursion, communication up to our fishing trip and beyond! They worked hard so our family could catch a lot fish! If that wasn't good enough, they also cleaned our entire catch so we could have dinner…enough for two dinners! Thank you, Alejandro for making this excursion one we will never forget!

We had an incredible time! Thanks so much to the crew, they were exceptional. The three of us who went all managed to catch a tuna. I lost a 50lb Wahoo but we don't talk about that 🤣 (all my fault). Such a great day out, highly recommend!
I have used Fishing Booker twice and it's a great way to find a charter close to where you are staying in Mexico. A seamless experience from start to finish.
It was very easy booking fishing trips and the reviews were a great help. I've used fishing booker in 3 different countries with no problems at all!
We had the chance to go to Puerto Vallarta for a destination wedding. With some extra days of stay we wanted to book a short charter to get our sons on some fish. Fishing Booker made it very easy transaction was smooth and no surprises Captain had great communication via the app. We got on some Spanish Mackerel, Bonito, and a couple Rooster fish it was an awesome time and shared fishing stories with the Captain and Deckhand. The Super Panga was A++++ quality.
With FishingBooker you always know the exact availability of any boat or captain you choose. It makes it easy to see when you are booking a trip. I have used FishingBooker many times now and it is always so easy.

I've used Fishing Booker twice when traveling to Mexico and I couldn't be happier. Their app is very user friendly and I will definitely be using it again.
Since 2020 Fishingbooker has been my booking agent. I've never had any booking issues, any refund issues or any customer service issues. They even expanded with direct book which they didn't have to, and that benefited me even more! They write your ad for you. The app is so simple to navigate. I would not use anybody else!

I don't really like fish very much at all. However when some friends and I were going to Panama City we wanted to go deep sea fishing. I don't remember how I found Fishing Booker, but I am so glad I did. It was so easy to find the captain that I wanted to use. Also, we had a great experience fishing. I highly recommend the app.
I was on family vacation trying to find a guide for the one day my son and I could go out. I came across FishingBooker. It made research fast and easy. Booking and comuncating with the Capt was easy. My first trip was canceled do to weather and it helped me quickly locate a second guide with availability two days later when weather was better. I used it again to locate a small charter for Tautog in Rhode Island. Both trips were with friendly knowledgeable Capt.
We Fished with Captain David El Hage out of Jan Thiel, Curacao For a 6 hour Charter with 4 of my friends. David should remember Arie for a while as Arie is almost 7 feet tall and from the Netherlands so they had quite a bit to talk about. Everyone hooked up at least and we did manage to bring in a few Tuna and a Wahoo, it was an outstanding trip and Crew. The highlight of our stay in Curacao.
Kiki was so helpful and a pleasure to deal with. Thanks Kiki!
I thought it was going to be tough to find a good bass fishing guide in Lake Okeechobee, but fishing booker made it simple.
Information med mange forskellige former kan være vanskelig. Jeg bruger mail, SMS og Messenger. FishingBooker bruger WhatsApp, hvilket var svært for mig at få til at fungere.
Fisketuren var fantastisk. Den planlagte tur blev rykket til den dag, hvor det var det bedste vejr for fiskeri. Det værdsætter jeg.
Hvis jeg fremover vil fiske i udlandet, vil jeg tjekke FishingBooker først.
We originally booked a whole day on "Reel Time"
However she was experiencing mechanical maintenance issues and Ohana Sport fishing called us with the bad news that she wasn't going to be ready for our trip. They then offered to upgrade our trip to their 74' Striker.
This was a huge upgrade, I mean a hot tub on a fishing boat!
The captain was awesome as was the first mate, both very knowledgeable and friendly. We even had a stewardess! Nicole kept the coffee coming and was a charming young woman. She was always checking to see how we were doing. It was a slow day fishing but we enjoyed good weather and conversation with ourselves and the crew.
After about 6 hours of fishing and only having a couple of little bites, we needed to head back to the harbor. We decided to leave the lures in the water just a little longer as we pointed the boat back to Oahu.
Then it happened!
A large marlin hit and hit hard, stripping 600-700 yards off the reel while we got the rest of the gear out of the water. After over 90 minutes of repeatedly bringing her to the stern we finally boated a good sized female Blue Marlin. Not a record breaker by any means, but when we returned to the dock we weighed her in at 437 pounds.
Bucket list item checked off!
Booked several trips in the US, central and South America. Been super convenient and accurate.

Robert,
I am truly sorry to hear about your family emergency and understand how disappointing it must have been to cancel your trip. Our support team is always committed to assisting our customers, and we’ve done everything in our power to help resolve this situation.
After reviewing our records, we did not receive any prior communication before March 11th regarding the need to reschedule, which is the date when the trip was scheduled. Since trip management is ultimately in the hands of both the customer and the captain, any changes need to be communicated promptly. In this case, the captain, following his cancellation policy, was unable to accommodate a reschedule due to the short notice, as the reserved time slot could not be rebooked.
Additionally, our support team reached out and requested medical documentation in an effort to advocate on your behalf. Unfortunately, we did not receive a response. We were also in contact with the person who booked the trip, your son, who was very understanding of the situation.
While I regret any inconvenience, our team remains dedicated to assisting you as best as we can. If there’s anything further we can do, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our support team.
