Rob and the other tour guide were great. Very friendly, fun, and informative! Although we didn't get to see any manatees, we saw some other wildlife and the great weather made it an awesome experience.

It was confusing. My ticket said 1:30, but the guide said 2. I thought we missed it. However, the guides were awesome. They were so knowledgeable, accommodating, and helpfully. We were so excited to see manatees.

Fist time kayaking and it was super fun. Pur guides Guy and Roger were very professional, no bias to newbies and were very engaging and patient. They are experts and I hope they will continue to inspire more people.
