What a wonderful experience! There was 8 in our family ranging from 12-76 and this was so beyond our expectations. The check in had great information and education about the manatees (so heartbreaking) with a very sweet woman (sorry, I forgot your name)! Pete and Dave were our guides and they were AWESOME! They were very patient and had great personalities. You can tell they really cared about us seeing manatees, ubut that they also care about protecting them and their habitats. We were as up close and personal as you can get! I know this is the start of the summer season, but I can’t imagine it being any better. We saw quite a few manatees and they were thisclose. The other thing we loved was ending it by stopping at the spring. Really though I can’t imagine if we had different guides. They made the trip awesome. Thank you for taking such great care of our family!
