What a wonderful tour! Our Captain and Guide, James, was knowledgeable and made sure to point out all of the many types of birds, turtles and alligators. The boat was very comfortable. You couldn't ask for a better way to spend time, right in the middle of nature! We loved it and will be back again soon!

Spent a lovely afternoon cruising down Braden River learning about habitat and history of the area. Excellent guide and good company. It is a perfect way to introduce guests to Florida wildlife.

Captain Andrew made our trip both enjoyable and educational. Accommodations were very comfortable and made site seeing easy. He took his time explaining about the different species, their habitats, and their origin. He patiently answered the guests questions and we never felt hurried. The cruise was supposed to end at 6 but Captain Andrew extended our time so we could see the sunset. I would recommend this cruise to anyone looking to learn about the wildlife in the estuary.

We took the sunset cruise, with Andrew as our captain. It was a wonderful way to end the day. Saw lots of nature (including a gator) and a beautiful sunset. Andrew gave a very informative commentary. The boat is electric so it's quiet. My favorite part was Bird Island, which was full of exotic birds roosting in the trees just before sunset. Highly recommended.

This river tour is hosted by 2 very knowledgeable captains who bring you into a back country river tour full of wildlife and Old Florida home back yards. Lunch is available and was also an authentic and unique Floridian experience, serving Fried Green Tomatoes, Hush Puppies and best of all, cornmeal fried catfish. The host are very welcoming and provide a very fun, while relaxing river experience. One of the other guest lives in Sarasota and chose this tour to bring a visiting guest on, which I think says a lot about the quality of this tour.
