We took the 10am tour with another couple and had an awe inspiring swim with manatees in their natural habitat. Captain Matt knew right where to go on Kings Bay and our in-water guide Vickie helped us get right in the middle of a small herd of gentle giants and their calfs.

The Manatee tour was outstanding. Sara and Matt, our guide and Captain, were amazing. Swimming with Manatees is a real treat and River Ventures was fun and professional.
