Reviews
It was a great experience enjoying the wildlife animals. At first, we couldn't find a manatee in the crystal clear water area but the tour leader kept trying to make sure that we wouldn’t be disappointed. We finally saw it! There was a bit error on the driver schedule. He took us to the wildlife alligator tour (which was not on the plan) Everyone in the group decided to pay extra for this activity and we loved it!
The guides for the Manatee tour were very knowledgeable about the Manatee’s whereabouts. We managed to catch sight of about 2-3 of them despite the conditions! They were very accomodating and caring towards my baby who tagged along for the trip as well. It was an enjoyable experience :)
This was an absolutely amazing experience! We were picked up punctually in a comfortable minibus with a knowledgable driver. When we got to Crystal River, we went to Bird's Underwater dive shop to hire wetsuits. The shop was lovely, with loads of great souvenirs at reasonable prices. Once we were ready, we got on a boat and went a little way, to an area where there weren't any other boats at all. The guys on the boat knew all about the best places to see manatees, and sure enough some appeared, and once we were in the water, we saw more and more of them, swimming all around us. We snorkelled for about an hour with the manatees; it was amazing, especially because we were just nine people, and there was nobody else around at all, so we had the manatees all to ourselves. Flotation devices were provided so you didn't have to be a strong swimmer, and the water was very warm because it's heated by hot springs. Afterwards we were given hot chocolate on the boat, before returning to shore. A large packed lunch was provided, and we were dropped off at Homosassa Wildlife State Park, a small zoo showcasing local wildlife. This was very interesting, and we had plenty of time to look at everything before it was time to get back on the bus to Orlando. I highly recommend this tour, it was everything I hoped for!
You can have the valuable experience of meeting manatees, which are rare in the world. Unfortunately, the water condition was bad and I couldn't see clearly, but the guide was polite and smooth!
The manatees are very cute😍The overall itinerary, transfers, and time planning and design are all well arranged
It stated that breakfast and lunch were included, but found that they were not included in the end. Klook was unwilling to refund or offer reasonable compensation! Very disappointed and dissatisfied!
