Every should go!

It was an amazing! An experience everyone should experience at least once in their life time. Company was very organized. It was cool that they took pictures of the manatees that came by so you could have lasting memories of the ones you saw.

Wonderful experience

My children and I had a great time. Sarah and Mack were our guides. They were informative and super friendly. We saw many manatees and other fish. Would definitely do it again!

Highly recommend! A must do on your next vacation!

I highly recommend this company and their amazing tour. We will most definitely go again! We had Captain Gavin and Guide Jessica and my family and I cannot say enough good things about them both. They were both super friendly, kind, informative, fun and most importantly, they truly cared about the manatees. I was a little nervous to do this tour because my 7 year old can sometimes be loud and strong willed (ha!) but Jessica took my daughter under her wing and taught her very quickly how to be in the water with the manatees and made the whole trip magical. We just spent 4 days at Disney and multiple days doing other Florida fun things but out of it all, this tour was hands down our favorite part of this vacation. Purchasing the photo package at the end is definitely worth it, we have 20+ pictures that we will treasure forever. Captain Gavin even had tea and hot cocoa for us upon arriving back to the boat!!! Thank you so much for making our last day on vacation our very best day of them all! -Kate, Ryan and Lexi

Must do experience

The perfect once-in-lifetime experience! Jessica and Gavin lead our tour and were incredible! They were so accommodating and made sure everyone had a safe, fun time while swimming with the manatees. Even in colder winter weather, the water was a perfect temperature! After snorkeling, the group was provided with hot tea or hot chocolate. Be sure to bring towels for after the swim.

Perfect trip
