5.00We had an amazing experience swimming with the manatees! Crystal clear water and great spots to swim with the manatees. Madeleine and Captain Chris were the BEST! They made our Christmas Eve swim with the manatees one to remember.

5.00This was a first-rate experience. The staff was so helpful and informative, it made our day easy and fun. The manatees were amazing to see up close. We noticed other tour companies near us, and by far this outfit stands out. Excellent boats and equipment compared to what we observed. Would do it again!
Excellent all round from start to finish

5.00Excellent swim with manatees! A truly wonderful experience from start to finish. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and incredibly informative, and there was absolutely no pressure — we were given as much time in the water as we wanted. The team is clearly professional and very knowledgeable about manatees, it was obvious they genuinely care about the animals’ well-being. The visitor centre was clean, the equipment was well maintained, and everything felt well organized. An unforgettable experience that I’d highly recommend.

5.00Took the Crystal River Manatee Tour last week with Guide Madeleine and Captin John. The friendly atmosphere from gift shop to water, wonderful views and fantastic experience was a lifetime memory. Madeleine went above and beyond to make sure all guests had a life capturing photo or two! Highly recommend!
Phenomenal Experience Swimming with Manatees

5.00As a family who visited Florida, but werent interested in the Disney Parks or Universal Parks, this was perfect. We drove 2 hours, leaving at 445A to get to the 7:30 tour. Not many people at this time. Were sure glad we did. While it was a bit chilly at 65, the wet suits kept us warm. We swam with and saw no less than 10 manatees including an inquisitve mother and child who hugged my wife twice. It was such a wonderful experience, nothing can compare to swimming with these gentle giants in the "wild." The staff was super kind, knowledgeable and just a pleasure to have guided us through this memorable adventure. Thank you!!
Joy in nature with manatees

5.00This was the highlight of our family vacation. We enjoyed snorkeling in the manatee’s winter spot on a really cold day, so there was tons of them in the warm springs. Some manatee just slept, some floated around and others were very curious of us. John drove the boat and gave us great information. Madeline guided us in the water safely and calmly. I highly recommend this tour.

5.00Explorida is very close to the manatees, ~10 min at idle. The water was murky at first. But as I got nearer to the springs, it cleared up. Well worth the $$. The picture package is only $35 for all downloads. The only negative is that Google Maps initially directed me to the wrong outfitter. If Viator had given me the business's name, it would have been no problem.
Fantastic!

5.00This manatee swim tour was the highlight of our family vacation! Madeleine and Captain John made the entire tour great from start to finish. It was well worth the admission fee. They found large groups of manatees and we had a great deal of swim time with them. The boat was cozy with a total of 7 people and warmed up at the end with some hot chocolate. Our whole family would book this again in a heartbeat!
