Wow!
The experience was wonderful from start to finish! Thank you Eric! Everything was thoughtfully explained, from the booking process and location details to what to wear and what to bring. Getting into the kayaks was easy, and the instructions on how to maneuver and control the kayak were clear and helpful. Our guide, Eric, also made the experience especially enjoyable by sharing interesting facts about manatees and dolphins, including their habitat, behavior, and hunting techniques. The combination of excellent instruction, beautiful surroundings, and fascinating information made this an unforgettable experience. I would highly recommend this tour!
Response from the operator: Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so glad your Fort Myers experience was enjoyable from start to finish. From the clear instructions and easy kayak setup to learning about the local manatees, dolphins, and their behaviors, it sounds like Eric helped make the adventure both comfortable and informative. We truly appreciate your recommendation and are happy you left with such great memories of your time on the water. Thank you for choosing Three Brothers Boards!

Great experience!
Such a fun and relaxing experience. Our guide, Eric, is as very knowledgeable about the ecosystem. He kept the tour entertaining, and I was impressed how he remembered everyone in the groups name!
Response from the operator: Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so glad you had such a fun and relaxing experience with Eric. His knowledge of the local ecosystem and personable approach really add to the adventure, and his ability to remember everyone's name is always impressive! We're happy he kept the tour entertaining and engaging for the whole group. We'll be sure to share your kind words with Eric. Thank you for choosing Three Brothers Boards!

Nice boards, but wouldn’t recommend this tour.
Guide was 45 minutes late to a 2 hour “tour.” We didn’t go anywhere we couldn’t have gone on our own with rentals - most of the tour was right around the bridge we drove over and very public areas with docks and we didn’t see any wildlife (which I realize they can’t control, but it would be nice to bring the group somewhere interesting if there isn’t wildlife to view). The guide mentioned that earlier tours are better for spotting wildlife. I’ve been on some great eco tours in Florida, but this was not one. Their equipment was in good shape.
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're glad to hear you found our equipment to be in good condition. Prior to the tour, we proactively contacted all of our 1:00 p.m. guests to let them know their guide would be arriving later than scheduled due to an unexpected delay on the previous tour, and we sincerely appreciate everyone's patience and understanding. As an eco-tour, each trip is unique and follows the area's natural waterways, with guides sharing information about the local ecosystem while looking for wildlife along the way. The area we operate tours is an ideal location for spotting the wildlife we typically have seen on pervious tours over the years, however since dolphins and manatees are wild animals in their natural habitat, sightings can never be guaranteed and vary from day to day, which is why no two tours are ever exactly alike. We appreciate you sharing your experience and your feedback as it's very important to us being small family ran business. Thank you again for booking Three Brothers Adventure Tours.

Lots of fun, Brandon was a great guide! Very knowledgeable knows the area well and was able to give brief history and fun facts regarding wildlife
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear you had so much fun on the tour with Branden. His knowledge of the local area, wildlife, and history helps make every adventure both fun and informative, and we're so glad you enjoyed all of the interesting facts he shared along the way. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to Branden. We truly appreciate your review and hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure on the water soon!

Great experience
Eric did fabulous job. We were so lucky have 4 dolphins by us. Was so cool have them swim between us. We didn't get to see any manatees but still great tour.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear you had such an incredible experience with Eric and were lucky enough to have four dolphins swimming all around your group—that's truly a memorable wildlife encounter! While wildlife sightings naturally vary from trip to trip, we're so glad the dolphins made your adventure extra special. We'll be sure to share your kind words with Eric. We truly appreciate your review and hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure on the water soon!

Why this scores 78
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Dolphin, Manatee and Sea Turtle Adventure Tour of Bonita Springs: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Naples.
How much does Dolphin, Manatee and Sea Turtle Adventure Tour of Bonita Springs cost?
+
Prices start at $77 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Naples usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Dolphin, Manatee and Sea Turtle Adventure Tour of Bonita Springs take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Naples is not rushed.
Is Dolphin, Manatee and Sea Turtle Adventure Tour of Bonita Springs worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 78 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 204 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Naples, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Dolphin, Manatee and Sea Turtle Adventure Tour of Bonita Springs?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Dolphin, Manatee and Sea Turtle Adventure Tour of Bonita Springs suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Dolphin, Manatee and Sea Turtle Adventure Tour of Bonita Springs?
+
Around 71 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Naples can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Naples and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Dolphin, Manatee and Sea Turtle Adventure Tour of Bonita Springs start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Naples within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Naples?
+
Naples is the launch point for Everglades airboat rides and Ten Thousand Islands boat tours, along with shelling trips, sunset sails off the pier and small-group food walks downtown. On Outty we rank every Naples experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Marco Island and Naples Pedal or Paddle Kayak Tour, Mangrove Tunnels & Mudflats Kayak Tour - Local Biologist Guides, Manatees and Mangrove Tunnels Small Group Kayak Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Naples?
+
November to April, the dry season with the best wildlife viewing. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Naples?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
