We booked the semi-private tour via email. Everything worked out perfect. Capt. Stacy is the best!!! It was such a wonderful experience for all of us. The kids were still telling everybody about it even after we visited the parks in Orlando! We were very much enjoying the boating trip and the dive to the manatees. Capt. Stacy has been... More

Stacy was so knowledgeable and informative about the manatees and this whole area, it was just an added bonus to this spectacular experience. Her love and devotion to these creatures is quite evident. One thing I would advise though, this is not for children under 5. My child was a quite a distraction from the whole experience. I will return... More

Doing your research and choosing the right tour company can make the difference between just an experience and a magical one. Manatees in Paradise are the best at what they do. Capt. Stacy was just spectacular and made the trip a day to remember forever. She knew exactly where the manatees would be this time of year and took her... More

Prior to booking I spent a good deal of time researching all of the companies on trip advisor for manatee tours. There are a lot! I narrowed it down to the 3 main ones (Birds, River Venture, and then this one) based on the reviews. I was almost in disbelief over the nearly 600 all five star reviews of Manatees... More

I knew from the previous reviews I read that this tour with Captain Stacy would not be a dissapointment. Captain Stacy is the tour guide that you need to choose. Not only do you get the Manatee experience up and close, but she takes great care to make sure we are not bothering them in their habitat. There are other... More

Stacy was welcoming and so professional. Her passion for the Manatees was inspiring. Highly recommend going with her. No rushing and clear safe directions on how best to approach and interact with these beautiful creatures. A1+++ Thankyou for a delightful afternoon.

Having had a fantastic trip out on Captain Mike's Private Boat Tour recently, we can thoroughly recommend it. Prior to even booking our trip, Stacy (Mike's partner) was extremely helpful with our email enquiries, and post booking ensured that we had all the necessary details to prepare for our trip, including directions to the marina. We arrived bright and early... More

Capt Stacy was brilliant at taking us out on our semi private tour. She clearly cares about the welfare of the manatees and does a lot to ensure their protection, as well as sharing their beauty with others. The other trips had loads of people grappling around for their opportunity to see & touch manatees and didn't seem to respect... More

This was a great experience from start to finish. Captain Stacy was very helpful in planning the tour, and Captain Mike was very informative and entertaining during the tour. We saw a lot of manatees, even though it was off season. This was a truly memorable experience, and we have pictures to enjoy. I'm so glad I listened to these... More
