We had an awesome tour with Bill! He was super informative and an overall pleasant guy to be around! We saw gators, turtles, all types of birds and a manatee. A great way to spend the day, would definitely recommend!

As in the title - i liked it very much, the guide was flexible towards the plan of the trip and really willing to show everything there was to see. And they organize the trip even if the group is very small like 3 persons only!

We visited from Ohio with 6 adults and one 7yr old child. Our tour guide was Bill and he was super nice and educational with everything he showed us. We went to the springs and saw manatees and other fish and turtles; the entire place was gorgeous. I was extremely happy with Bill and the service we had. So if you’re looking for this type of experience, we were really pleased with Bill and our tour!
