Manatee Festival

Join us for a stress-free, fun-filled day at the beloved Manatee Festival in beautiful downtown Crystal River—the perfect way to celebrate Florida’s gentle giants without the hassle of driving or parking!

Hosted by the Citrus County Chamber of Commerce, this popular annual event draws over 20,000 visitors and offers something for everyone: nature encounters, cultural exhibits, unique shopping, and plenty of delicious food vendors.

The festival entrance fee is included in your tour price, and once inside, you’ll find dedicated kids' activity zones—making this a great outing for grandparents treating their grandchildren. Don’t miss the chance to explore Kings Bay with discounted boat and kayak tours, where you can witness manatees up close in their natural habitat.

Relax and enjoy the ride while we take care of the details. Reserve your seat today and get ready for a heartwarming experience on Florida’s Nature Coast!

Please be advised that the bus will be stopping at all three pick-up points (Wildwood, Inverness and Ocala) for this and all tours.
