If you think Finding Nemo is cool, this tour will blow your mind. Tim is the "manatee whisperer" and I swear they know him by name. Not to mention we hit the grand slam: manatees, sea turtles, dolphins and a bald eagle! Needless to say, we were the luckiest kayakers this side of Estero bay. Tim is the MAN...atee!!

Tim and Mike were very accommodating for our last minute trip request. Mike gave us a private tour and found 8+ manatee and several dolphins. We learned a lot and had a great time. Thank you so much!!

The guides provide an AWEsome experience! We had a fantastic day in Estero Bay. Manatees in their natural environment. We learned a lot about SW Florida habitats, including birds, sea critters, grasses and the dangers they face. I highly recommend Manatee Guides for an up close and personal adventure.
