We had an absolutely incredible time with Steve and Lana on this eco tour! From start to finish, the experience was relaxed, informative, and genuinely enjoyable. We were lucky enough to see several manatees and plenty of dolphins, all while enjoying a slow, peaceful cruise on a beautiful day with an amazing sea breeze. Steve and Lana were exceptional hosts. They were warm, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable, and it was obvious how deeply they care about the local wildlife and ecosystem.
One thing that really stood out was the respect they showed for the animals. Steve operated the boat with such care and intention, always assuming there could be a manatee nearby or even directly beneath us. It was clear that protecting the wildlife comes before everything else, and that made the experience even more meaningful. We walked away not only with wonderful memories (and photos/videos) but with a much greater understanding of manatees, their habitat, and how we can all help protect them. It's rare to find a tour that is both entertaining and educational, but Steve and Lana have mastered that balance.
They also have water and other soft drinks for purchase at what seemed to be almost cost, which was a thoughtful touch on a warm Florida day.
If you're considering this tour, don't hesitate. We would absolutely do it again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic, ethical, and unforgettable wildlife experience. Thank you, Steve and Lana, for such a fantastic day! read more
