An amazing experience

This was an excellent experience. Our tour guide Baylee was friendly and very knowledgeable. She knew exactly where to take us to see lots of manatees. We would definitely take the tour again if we are in the area.

Perfect trip, amazing guide

If you want to see wildlife up close - Book this trip! Ask for Selena. She led us on a safe, exciting and educational adventure. Dolphins, manatees, flamingoes, alligator, horseshoe crab, numerous fish and birds filled our 2 hour leisurely paddle. Selena’s experience with the environment and animals was extensive. Her respect and admiration of the wildlife was evident. She made my nervous 10year old feel completely at ease with her knowledge and confidence. Unforgettable trip! We will do it again and again.

Friendly dolphin, fun

The weather is cold that day so the manatees were hiding, but we saw a ton of dolphins. They came up right next to the boat. Osprey were gorgeous as well as the pelicans. Got a great history lesson from our guide Trenton. Couldn’t ask for a cooler experience

A great tour with Jacob

We had a fantastic tour with Jacob on 21 December and were lucky enough to see dolphins, a close encounter with manatees which almost pushed our kayak along coming to investigate us, a great deal of birdlife including heron, osprey and a small flock of roseate spoonbills. There were even a couple of alligators which were sunning themselves on the banks of the mangroves. Jacob was entertaining and very knowledgable - thank you.

Jacob was an amazing tour guide so knowledgeable about the wildlife and local history. We saw gators, pelicans, osprey, green heron, great blue herons, anhinga, cormorants, snowy egret and at least 2 dozen mantee! The manatees were super curious and came up to the boat to check us out. So fun!

Best adventure!

The tour was one of the best things my friends and I did while on vacation! We saw so many more manatees and dolphins than we expected which was incredible. The manatees in particular were likely to come close to our boats and even under the boats which was surprising but made for great videos. The tour guide John was so helpful, knowledgeable and funny. He pointed out other animals and and plants, and he gave great descriptions of each. We also took a lot of breaks which was nice to rest our arms, enjoy the scenery and encourage more sea life to make appearances. We felt well taken care of throughout. He even encourage my group to sing happy birthday to me which was sweet. Thank you for an amazing time!

Operator response

Thank you for the 5 star review and we hope to see you back again soon.
