Amazing Experience. Staff was amazing and very knowledgeable. Meghan was very patient and took my 5 year old on her shoulder while in the water to help him out for a bit. I recommend this company 100 percent for the ultimate manatee encounter experience.

Went out this morning on a guided tour to see the manatees. Madeline, a guide was very friendly with a bundle information and interesting facts! Dominic was the captain, very informative and did a great job along with Madeline to spot 2 manatees for us! We got up close as Madeline and Chloe guided us, it was amazing!! Can’t say enough about Explorida!! They are so conscientious about the Manatees welfare and provide a wonderful film explaining how to have Manatee Manners. Their shop is friendly, clean and provides many fun gifts and souvenirs all centered on a Manatees theme! What a wonderful experience all around with Explorida, everything is top notch!!

Our guide Megan and captain Walter were great at finding resident manatees. Very knowledgeable and patient with swimmers , as were the manatees ! Megan knew just when to get the best photos, especially when I can nose to nose with a manatee coming up for breath.

Wow what an amazing time! We were greeted by manatees within less than 10 min of being on the boat. Meg was our guide and did a wonderful job. They were very understanding with my little ones. Afterwards, my daughter forgot her swimsuit. They called to make sure that we knew. When we got back they had the cutest little gift bag for her (it was her 7th birthday). Thank you so much!!! This was an amazing experience.

We had a very good time. We didn’t realize when we booked the trip that the majority of the manatees had migrated out already. The tour folks did a great job though. We did find one within 5 minutes of leaving the dock. The pictures of the super clear water and lots of manatees are from the winter.
