We couldn’t imagine a better tour with any other company. The guides were knowledge, experienced, and fun to spend the morning with. Don’t book with anyone else!

It was amazing to come face to face with a manatee! Our captain Chris and guide Tiffany were knowledgeable and fun! We will go back in the winter when there are more manatees in the clear water.

Great family adventure for the whole family! Our guide and the boat captain were wonderful with our child. They provided everything we needed for an enjoyable day- wetsuits, towels, life jackets, water, etc. I highly recommend Crystal River Manatee Adventures.

My son and I had a great time out with Shawn and Chris. It was my son's first time snorkeling and he loved it. We were taken to a couple different places to swim with the manatees as well as some crystal clear water to see some fish and the springs. If we were staying in Florida longer we would have gone for a second trip with them. It was great.
