This is a gentle cruise around the river showing lots of wildlife. We saw manatees, birds, alligators and a dolphin. If you get Captain Gavin even better. Local man with lots of knowledge. No bad view from him other side of the boat. You can sit or stand.

My family and I really enjoyed the pontoon river cruise with Explorida. Our captain, Chris was knowledgeable and knew where to go to find wildlife on the river. He found a manatee mom and baby in a cove, and we enjoyed watching them. We also saw lots of biirds, we especially enjoyed the cormorant and anhinga moms and babies. If we get back to the Crystal River area, we will definitely do the viewing tour again.

The guide Chris was very knowledgeable. A very nice day on the boat with so much wildlife to see. Plenty of manatees, dolphins, alligators, and beautiful birds. Chris taught us so much about the manatees and area. The ladies in the shop were very friendly and helpful.

My grandson and I went on this tour. We were so happy with the amount of manatees that we saw. Our tour guide was amazing. We were lucky because we were. We had a group of only five people. Had so much fun and learned a lot too. Highly recommend it.
