Crystal River: Private Manatee Swim With Guide(Free Photos)

This experience was so worth it!!!! The guides were so knowledgeable and friendly. I will definitely be doing this tour again.

Absolutely wonderful experience. Giggles and Toby were incredible guides. I hope I got their names right! Would 100% recommend them. They have a little gift shop and a room where you watch the informational video first and get into your wet suits, then you go on the van about 5 min to the boat. We saw a gator and I think four manatees! It was an amazing experience.

We investigated 4-5 companies before we selected Crystal River Manatee Adventures. They were absolutely great starting with our first phone call to TJ . Their entire setup is first class, and our Captain ((Chris) and our dive assistant (Crystal Lynn) made the entire trip fun and informative. We highly recommend this entire crew!!

Captain Chris and guide Crystal Lynn were completely awesome. We spent very little time in the boat and were completely engaged with several manatees in our private tour in the water. Crystal Lynn had a wonderful ability to stay at the manatees head so we could see her at all times and know where the wonderful creature was. I was amazed at how inept I was at finding the manatee and how Crystal Lynn maneuvered herself seemingly effortlessly to help us. Both Captain Chris and Crystal Lynn were 100% focused on us having a great time. Aside from swimming with manatees which is beyond awesome, the thing I liked most about the tour was the degree of information both these professionals had. They shared all kinds of facts regarding manatees, regarding the bay, regarding the mammal migration, and gave a very great understanding of why the bay was in the shape it is today. They relate a lot of hurricane information as well and then after we swim with the manatees, we went up to the three sisters spring and swim there. The entire experience was simply wonderful. My brother arranged the trip and it called four or five other outfits when he was doing his research on who we would go with. He relays that TJ at the front desk was beyond helpful and stood Head and shoulders above all the other outfits that he called. We are so glad we booked with Crystal River Manatee adventures. We recommend them highly Fantastic experience all around. Ps before we even left the parking lot after our tour was over, likely about 100 photos were uploaded to our email for our viewing. It was the best because when I got home I could show my friends what I had done that morning. Again kudos to this wonderful team

Had an amazing time while on the tour. Thanks to tour guide crystallynn and captain chris for the amazing experience and getting us up close and personal with the manatees for 2 hours. And nice hot coacoa break.
