We were iffy about having a guide but the experience would not have been the same without him. We would've had no idea where to go on that river. He took us to the cracks you can swim through on both ends, explored to see animals, and told fun stories. We could tell he loves doing this, he had just as much fun as we did :)

And even pointed us to a cove that homes a lot of turtles and alligators. We saw it all! They have volunteers overseeing the 3 sisters springs, to help monitor the safety of the manatees (and scold ignorant people lol). Great time! If you're unsure, let me assure you.. just book.

It is definitely worth the buck!

Did the owners steal her Kayak and replace it with someone else???? Who's Kayak is in her spot??? This place is shady. Read the fine print BEFORE you sign for a storage slip. They are all about the $$$$$ and less about the well-being of your Kayak (Which you spent your hard earned money for).
