We had a very good time - My wife myself, my sister-in-law and her husband from France that we're visiting us here in Homosassa went on the guided pontoon tour with Ryan last initial B was our tour guide. We had a blast. Ryan was as if he was a best friend taking us on a boat ride. He was extremely professional and friendly. We talked the whole way and we had such a great time we would recommend the tour to anyone and especially with Ryan being the guide.

Full of wildlife surprises - We went on an amazing Sunset cruise with Manatee Swim Center. The Captain was great and we saw a dolphin, an Osprey and even watched an Alligator trapper remove a huge Alligator from the cove. It was an appreciation cruise for our volunteers at Save Crystal River. Then we had amazing food at Waterfront Social!
