Manatee Snorkeling Adventure Tour con pranzo e ritiro in hotel
Descrizione
Vieni e goditi la vera Florida! Avvicinati al gentile lamantino e ammira la bellezza di Crystal River mentre esplori l'Homosassa State Wildlife Park. Il tour si dirige verso Crystal River dove potrai fare snorkeling o nuotare nei fiumi dove vivono i lamantini selvatici. La partenza è la mattina presto, quindi porta con te degli spuntini per la colazione da consumare durante il viaggio. Dopo un briefing sulla sicurezza e dopo aver ritirato maschera, boccaglio e pinne (il noleggio della muta costa $ 15 ed è obbligatorio per i nuotatori), sali a bordo della barca. Quando vengono avvistati i lamantini, puoi entrare nel fiume per scattare splendide foto. Se preferisci, puoi scegliere di goderti semplicemente il giro in barca mentre ti godi la natura. Nel pomeriggio esplora l'Homosassa State Park. Il parco ospita molte specie di fauna selvatica autoctona salvata. Se acquisti l'opzione completamente inclusa del Florida Adventure Tour, farai anche un Wild Airboat Ride su un fiume per avvistare gli alligatori e la natura e goderti un pranzo al sacco.
Opzioni del tour
Itinerario
La barca guiderà nel rifugio faunistico dove speri di vedere lamantini selvatici sul fiume.
All'arrivo al pittoresco Crystal River, ti godrai un favoloso tour in barca narrato. Ti verranno fornite maschere, boccagli e pinne e incoraggiato a nuotare insieme a queste amichevoli creature sotto la guida di dive master certificati. I lamantini sono in pericolo e sono venuti alle sorgenti della Florida tutto l'anno per trovare riparo e cibo. Nei mesi invernali la popolazione dei lamantini può raggiungere diverse centinaia e durante l'estate il numero medio è di 80. Sono "giganti gentili" e non hanno denti. Dopo la crociera, ti dirigerai verso l'Homosassa State Wildlife Park, famoso in tutta la Florida per la riabilitazione degli animali feriti. È qui che avrai la possibilità di vedere gli attuali lamantini residenti nel parco durante una sessione di alimentazione informativa e divertente con uno dei ranger del parco. Vedrai anche orsi, pantere, alligatori e persino un ippopotamo mentre esplori il resto del parco. Sono inclusi anche il trasporto di andata e ritorno dall'area di Orlando e una guida autista esperta.
Visiteremo il Parco Statale di Homosassa. Camminerai per lo State Park e vedrai gli animali e i lamantini nella camera di osservazione subacquea di questa struttura ospedaliera per lamantini feriti. C'è anche un bar nel parco, quindi puoi acquistare il pranzo qui se lo desideri, o se preferisci prepararti un picnic hanno tavoli da picnic che puoi usare all'interno del parco.
Se viene prenotato il pacchetto "Manatee Swim, Park & Airboat", sarà incluso un giro in airboat di 30 minuti sul fiume Withlacoochee.

Absolutely incredible day - Florida just how nature intended - fantastic fun for kids from 7-70! We travelled as a family of three adults and three kids and everyone had a brilliant day - it’s a jam packed schedule with an early pickup in Orlando, but totally worth it. Adam makes the journey both fun and educational and pitches it just right for every member of the group. Bird’s underwater dive school made our dreams come true and gave us lifelong memories snorkelling with manatees in the middle of their ‘off season’ because our expert captain and guide knew just where to go to find them. Wild Bill’s airboat ride is a must-do! There were loads of alligators, herons, dragonflies, cormorants, osprey and more in some of the most stunning landscapes we’d ever seen. Thank you so much to everyone involved in such a brilliant day!
Adam our driver was great, very entertaining and a nice guy. Now the swimming with the manatees and the airboat ride did not meet our expectations by no means. Adam was the better entertainer of the trip everything else was not worth $398. It is not advertised like it should be, water was muddy muddy and not clear and the airboat ride just was a normal boat ride to us.
I want to start off with Adam was a very good guide and had a very good attitude and was very bubbly. But I do wish the company for swimming with the manatees would not advertise that the water is crystal blue year round and would let guest know ahead of time they may not see a manatee at all during the summer months. When you go to book online, they show these pretty pictures of clear water and so many people swimming with manatees, which is true for certain months of the year. The company should definitely add that is does not look like that during the summer and you will not have the same experience! Not even our whole group got to see a manatee or swim with it. And the air boat ride just didn’t meet our expectations like it has in the past with different companies.
Excellent tour, truly amazing to see such a huge variety of wildlife, especially the manatees. Adam was a great guide, an extraordinary free style singer, and an exceptional show man ! The tour was definetly awesome and would have been even better with more information and facts about Florida's biodiversity.
The experience was amazing from start to finish. It was an incredible experience so swim with a manatee in their natural habitat. It was out of season however still saw a couple. We were fortunate to also see a Mom and her newbown calf, born 20 mins before we spotted them from the boat. Our tour guide Adam was brilliant from start to finish. His humour, knowledge and enthusiasm made the day even more special. He’s a credit to the company.
Absolutely fantastic only made better with our guide Adam, full of knowledge throughout, his Jason Statham impression needs work though. Adam is a credit to the grey line company.
Went on a tour with Adam as a guide and was great!
The experience was amazing meeting the mannitees was a great adventure and an awesome first-time activity. The staff was really friendly, acknowledging, funny. The amount of people coming was a perect amount and there were others to relate to in having a first-time experience. The atmosphere around was overall really nice to be around as well. This was an amazing full day activity consisting of so many exciting events creating new companions along the journey. Overall an awesome experience.
The pickup at the hotel was very positive. Kevin told us interesting things about the area or the history every now and then along the way. The team for swimming with manatees was very competent and paid close attention to compliance with the rules for the protection of the animals. The Homosassa Springs Wildlife is well worth seeing. ( Many mosquitoes) A highlight, however, was the airboat ride. I will definitely book with Grayline again.
Adam was brilliant and kept the tour going all day despite the weather not being the best. We had an amazing day and Jake was not sure about swimming with the manatees but Adam encouraged and reassured him and he eventually did the experience. He usually is not sure about people he does not know and is very shy, but he really liked Adam. The swim was amazing and we saw fish from our snorkel, manatees and dolphins from the boat. The manatee feed and animals were brilliant in the state park. The airboat was fantastic. Saw loads of gators and Florida fauna and flora. Also loved Adam’s commentary. Thank you for a wonderful day xx
