5The best in Crystal River
I've been visiting Crystal River and the "Manatee Festival" for over 5 years. There is only one time I did not use River Ventures, and I regretted it. River Ventures has the best captains, boats and guides. They always direct us to the best manatee viewing and take incredible pictures for us to enjoy later. My favorite part is the heated boat and beverages post-swim. This company is the crown jewel of manatee tours.
5Don't Miss This Experience
This was one of the highlights of my life! I got to check off a bucket list item. Our guide was phenomenal. He made sure we had a top notch experience. He heated boat was great. Do the VIP tour!
5Up close and personal
Love these animals! Got to see them up close and personal!
5Ask for Gary and Lacy
Gary and Lacy gave us a fantastic tour! Got to see multiple manatees in the summer time
5Great day for the whole family!
Great experience for the whole family! We knew that the timing of our trip wasn’t ideal for seeing hundreds of manatees but Piper and Lacy were excellent at still finding manatees for us to swim with. They were patient and understanding with my little boys too! We were lucky enough to also see a dolphin! Great day! The photo package was also very reasonably priced and included photos and videos that we will cherish forever!
5Amazing
It was simply amazing! The team took a lot of time for us and really made the experience special. The animals are treated with great respect, and at the same time, you can get very close to them without disturbing them. The team handled everything really well and made sure the animals were always treated with care. We were absolutely delighted with the experience and would do it again anytime. We highly recommend it!

About Crystal River
Crystal River is a small town on Florida's Nature Coast, famous for clear spring-fed waters where manatees gather in winter.
Crystal River lies on Florida's Gulf coast north of Tampa, where many springs feed Kings Bay with clear water that stays at a steady 22 degrees Celsius all year. As winter cold chills the Gulf, West Indian manatees crowd into the warm water, and Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge protects them. Three Sisters Springs, a cluster of crystal-clear pools, is a manatee refuge in the cold months.
Top-ranked sights in Crystal River: Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge, Weeki Wachee Springs State Park.
