Excellent tour guides, easy and relaxed, not stressful; everything was streamlined and taken care of for us so that we could simply enjoy the experience. We saw manatees out in the bay and then also surprisingly saw a big female manatee hanging out in the crystal clear water of three sisters. It was quite an experience, and the jovial, relaxed demeanor of our guides, who are genuinely passionate and have fun doing their jobs, made the experience amazing and memorable. Would highly recommend this company, specifically Dallas and Steve (boat captains/guides), to anyone who wants an excellent manatee tour and to for sure see manatees, even bonus manatees!

Captains Misty Kelly and Mark led my wife and I (in our 60s) through a beautiful interactive adventure with these gentle animals in both Three Sisters and Kings Bay. Over a 3 hour period we saw many manatees up close and personal, including breeding couples, moms and calves and permanent residents as well as newcomers from the ocean. We saw large tarpon and a turtle. Mark expertly guided and anchored the boat, while Misty gently and safely led us in the water, giving us the space and opportunity to interact without over-shepharding us. Once back on the boat, Mark poured warm water down our 5 mm thick wet suits to remove the chill, while offering us hot coffee and cocoa. We will never forget our day, thanks to Misty's expert GoPro recorded documentary of photos and movies which we happily purchased for an additional charge back at the dock.

Plantation was obviously a well established business, with a great following- and employees... Everything went smoothly, and as a small business owner I have to say, I really respected how well Ed(guide) and Steve(boat captain) worked with the clients. I and my wife had nothing short of an excellent time with them both, and though surely all captains and guides there do a swell job- I just cant say enough about hard these two worked to put us on Manatees for the duration of the event. Just a great experience... STEVE AND ED- Thanks again, Bethany and James from Maine
