We took the tour tuesday evening 22.00-23.30 hrs and it was wonderful! Our guide Samantha communicated before very clearly and responded quickly about exact location and details. We saw the bioluminiscence the whole tour, and very clearly on different spots in the water. Samantha gave us materials to catch and let go again jelly fish which glowed in the net and on our hands. We booked for a group of at most 10 people but we only with the 4 of us. Samantha was very kind, and had a good balance between telling us things and experience the bioluminiscence. It was a really great experience! (Attached photo’s are not clear… live experience is much better!)

Jimi is such a great guide. You can tell he genuinely loves nature, knows so much about it, and really enjoys sharing what he knows with everyone on the hike. It made the whole experience on the Black Bear Wilderness Trail that much better. Highly recommend!

TJ was absolutely amazing! We were late (my fault) and he not only accommodated us and made sure we got plenty of time with the manatees, he also gave us extra time out of consideration. Highly recommend this experience!

We loved our tour “Eco Kayak Adventure on the Emerald Cut!” Our guide Jimi was knowledgeable and so easy to be with. It was a gorgeous morning and we saw alligators, turtles, birds, a snake, and learned all about the flora and fauna. We stopped a few times to swim and jump off the river bank. The water was beautiful and refreshing. This was the best thing we’ve done to celebrate our anniversary weekend! Thank you Jimi!

TJ ensured we had an incredible kayaking trip. Given the warm weather, we weren't sure if we’d see any manatees, but we decided to go for it and got lucky. First, we saw an alligator crossing the river—right where we had to kayak! But it was amazing. TJ taught us a lot about manatees and other Florida wildlife.He was also able to tell us where all the animals were and which animals were staying there. We had a fantastic time!
