The manatee encounter really is a great tour. While the manatees (and there were plenty of them due to a cold spell) did not come that close, there was lots of other wildlife and the route taken with the kayaks is lovely, especially going up a little creek off the main river. The kayaks themselves are good quality and easy to handle. Highly recommended.

We had the most amazing time on this tour! My two children (ages 13 & 9) loved it more than the theme parks and want to go back and do it again. Too bad we don't have more time on our vacation or we would definitely go back again and again! Our tour guide Ryan was very friendly and knowledgeable about all the wildlife we saw. I would highly recommend this company to anyone visiting the Orlando area and urge visitors to take a break from the other tourist attractions and theme parks and make time for this!!

My girlfriend and I were very excited for this trip. Unfortunately, as we were staying in southern Orlando, we had a difficult time traveling the distance in the morning. But the guides were very nice and waited for us for almost half an hour before departing! The trip itself was fun and educational! We went at the beginning of March so we were doubtful we would see any manatees but I personally had an up-close experience with one! Must try experience. 我和女朋友在三月初去的时候担心会见不到海牛，但是到了以后见到很多海牛与本地的鸟、海龟、与鳄鱼。当地的导游还很热心地介绍每个动物，帮你们拍照。推荐！
