We originally had booked through three brothers boards for their manatee spring adventure for a 1300 slot but the guide didn’t turn up and we received no notification from the company. We were then introduced to Gina from Adventures in Florida who was absolutely lovely . Both my son and I had an amazing time kayaking with Gina who was not only knowledgeable but a absolute pleasure to be with . We had a real laugh and she made the tour a real adventure with sightings of wildlife and an manatee . I have nothing but praise for Gina who made our last day in a Florida truly memorable.

Highly recommend this adventure for all ages. Gina our tour guide and Kara her assistant absolutely AMAZING!! Their knowledge about the wildlife and its natural habitat kept you at ease at all times. We were blessed to see manatees, turtles, fish, and 2 alligators. The fish in the spring water abundant and amazing to see up close in CLEAR water. WOW!! With Gina's knowledge when the gators were close we remained calm and just enjoyed viewing them gliding across the water. Our 2 teenagers girls were nervous, but handled it well. What an amazing experience. Something we will share with others for our lifetime. Don't let any fear of fish or gators keep you from this amazing up close adventure of manatees in their natural environment. We saw 2 of them interacting with kids on a raft. 3 of them in another area being frisky with one another. Just incredible. Could have stayed there ALL day. Must do when in the area. We stayed in Daytona it was less then a hour ride. Well worth it. Thank you Gina and Kara!!!
