So glad we went with Waterfront Adventures! - Fantastic experience! 5mm wetsuits as well as Captain Mike’s hospitality with coffee and hot chocolate kept us warm on a chilly morning. John was excellent leading us so we could have the best experience possible. They both were great! And the experience really was awesome.

Best experience ever!!! - We came at the busiest time of the year right after Christmas. Captain John and Captain Mark were awesome! We were educated about the manatees and area we were snorkeling. They were able to put us on many Manatees, where other groups were still searching. We will be back again soon!

Ummmmmmm the best experience ever! - We traveled with 3 children ages 6,9and 11. The weather was 68 and the water was 73 degrees. Was very worried about the cold weather and the water for our girls. Ms. Ummmm a.k.a ( Brie) provided wets suits (she was really good at looking at us and knowing what size to pick for us).. Let’s say she was dead on . Everybody’s wetsuit fit perfect. Brie provided much knowledge about the manatees and how to freeze and float .Brie also made sure that everybody was happy and having fun. When our experience was over, Andrew the boat Captain had hot cocoa’s and coffee ready,which was much needed after our wonderful experience. I would suggest when you are headed back to the boat, that you have your own towels ( maybe a blanket) , The boat had towels ( thin towels) make sure you wear a bathing so when you unzip your wetsuit you can put on something warm. While on your way back to the dock. Our 6 yr old wanted to come back to the boat after an hour, she was cold. That’s why I would suggest to also bring a change of clothes while you are waiting on the boat for the rest of the party to come back. Also bring something for the little ones to do while they are waiting for the rest of the group to come back. I would highly suggest this experience. Brie and Andrew went above and beyond the call of duty for customer service. The world needs more people like them in the world.

Snorkeling with manatees - We had an amazing time snorkeling with manatees with Waterfront Adventures. We had such a great time our first day that we decided to book the same tour the next day- incredible experience. Our captains and guides (Glen, Dani, Mike, and Jake) were all fantastic. Highly recommended !

It was great - Our guide and captain we knowledgeable about the manatees and their living conditions. We were also educated on their protection and how we, as visitors, can help in keeping them safe and happy. We had some pretty awesome up close experiences in the water and over all was a great experience.

Amazing day - Our family had the best time with Captain Morgan and swim master Sara . They were very knowledgeable and taught us about Manatees and their habitat. They went above and beyond to make sure we had time to observe manatees and swim alongside them. We even saw a mom and her baby cub. Thanks again to Mike's manatee tour company for a very amazing and memorable day. We would definitely recommend this tour to others. Happy New Year.

Manatee Tour - We did semi-private 3 hr tour with Captain Mark and Lucas. Mark and Lucas are consumate professionals that care deeply for the manatees and springs. They made sure we were always near manatees. We had a great time and will be back for another tour.

Tour of Crystal river - The tour was interesting, however I feel the organizers were more interested in the waivers and preventive video than the outing itself. There were far too many people on the tour for 1 person to manage (more than 12). When a manatee was seen it was impossible for everyone to see it.
