We were contacted by Ned 3 days before letting us know that the Manatees were on the move as the temperature was rising. He offered us a full refund or an alternative experience. What good service! We couldn’t take him up on the alternative option as we were flying home so had to opt for the refund. We will definitely re-book when re return to Florida.
Thank you Ned for your honesty! read less - 3/13/2020

But Uncle Ned is a great teacher and I was up and at it in no time! I've also learned a ton about Florida wildlife and ecology from paddling with him--he's a treasure trove of knowledge. I will definitely be back! Highly, HIGHLY recommended. read less - 11/14/2019
