Please do the guided tour it is amazing, much more information, only $5 more makes a big difference of the experience, I went thought by myself first, the computer/camera set up was not working, did not want to leave without getting that! as I walked trough the halls of exhibit a guided tour came through, it was amazing to hear I was captivated. I missed so much information that was right in front of me. I signed up for the guided tour Robert was truly amazing. Every one was so helpful.highly recommend

We took the 4th July trip to Crystal River & Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park tour with Gray Line Orlando, and despite heavy rain and electrical storms from mid-morning, it turned out to be a fantastic day thanks to our guide, Adam. The swim itself was limited by lack of manatees at this time of year, and the need to get out the water with the lighting overhead, however Gina & Cpt Michael made sure we managed to get one great manatee sighting in during our experience. Rather than letting the weather ruin the trip, Adam went above and beyond to keep the group entertained. He organised a great lunch from Publix, took us on an impromptu local tour, stopped at Monkey Island for drinks and ice cream, and even used AI to share the history and stories of the area while we waited for the weather to improve. Once the storms passed, we were still able to visit the wildlife sanctuary. Throughout the day, Adam's enthusiasm, knowledge and genuine care for the group made all the difference. He kept everyone engaged, informed and connected from pick-up to drop-off. Adam is a real credit to Gray Line Orlando. We have another tour booked next week and are hoping he's our guide again. Highly recommended!

The Clear Kayak or Paddleboard Manatee Adventure was well organized from start to finish, and the experience was both relaxing and exciting. The clear kayaks gave us a unique perspective of the water, making it even more enjoyable to observe the wildlife and beautiful surroundings. Our tour guide, Ben, was fantastic. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made everyone feel comfortable, regardless of their kayaking experience. Throughout the tour, Ben shared interesting facts about manatees, the local ecosystem, and conservation efforts, making the experience both fun and educational. He was also patient and made sure everyone in the group stayed together while giving us plenty of opportunities to enjoy the scenery and take photos. Seeing wildlife such as a manatee, gators, monkeys, and various birds in their natural habitat was an unforgettable experience, and Ben's enthusiasm made it even more memorable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area. It's a wonderful way to experience Florida's natural beauty while learning about its incredible wildlife.
