Checking in was horrendous. The person was rude would not answer questions directly and disrespectful. Have a place here locally and will never rent from this place again just because of the nasty attitude of the clerk.

Was very good, front desk staff amazing!
We unfortunately didn’t see any manatees it’s was raining but still had good experience. Clear kayak is not stable in the water, very hard to get out an in without flipping.

Great experience! Free parking near the building, amazingly friendly staff. We had an issue with booking with some of our party and they went above and beyond helping out!!! Definitely the best in the area

Awesome place, I have rented from them several times. This particular day i brought my own kayak but forgot my paddle.... I know. The business took pity on me and loaned me one. This is the kind of customer service that keeps customers coming back. Thank you.

Jamie was phenomenal in providing the information needed for a first time kayaking at Crystal River! The entire team/ staff were friendly, accommodating and even recommended a few local restaurants and areas to explore. Highly recommend and will be back soon!

My family and I had an absolutely amazing time! We got a 2 person tandem kyack that fit my husband, myself and my 2yr old. The process to get the kyack was a simple call with email confirmation and registration sent via email. When we arrived all the star were exceptionally helpful with giving us a run down on locations to swim and see different things. We saw manatees, dolphins, turtles, crabs and swam in the spring. Highly recommend

What a day. Dave was our guide and took us round, passing on information, answering our questions and making the trip special.
We were a couple and 2 kids aged 16 and 18 and we were able to stop off and swim with the manatees, which was on my wifes bucket list, so a great day for all the family.

All around experience could have been much better. Kayaks were dirty, rough shape and seat bottom was missing in one of 3. After my spouse got tipped over by person helping us get in water, (he got soaked and all his stuff went everywhere) his strap holding up the back part of his seat which was barely in tact broke it ruined his experience. We had to switch boats and I had to use kayak with broken seat. I had already asked if we could switch one of Kayaks when we checked in and associate explained there were NO other Kayaks available for the day. ( we weren't sure if sit in kayak would be suitable for my spouse) We did complain to associate at ramp that seat was missing and he just dismissed us not offering to fix or replace. Not a good first experience with Hunter Prings Kayaks at all.

They got us on the water quickly with everything we needed. Very informative regarding where to go, how to go and what to do once we got there! We were they in March and did the adventure package with our 7 and 9 year old daughters. Our girls wouldn't have been able to swim without the wetsuits. Highly recommend these guys to outfit you for the day!

Dave was so patient & informative. The entire team from checkin to leaving was so pleasant. Going out with a new pet & my little one was a lot but booking the tour really helped us stay on track and see all the manatees. Beautiful team thank you again 🙏🏽

Highly recommend the swimming tour! The owner Dave is knowledgeable about manatees! We were lucky to be only ones on the tour.

Dave was an incredible tour guide! He was very patient, informative, passionate about manatee conservation and was willing to bring people out on a windy day when most other tour companies would not. He made a very windy day into a very positive experience. He also took amazing go-pro photos of the manatees from his paddle board that he shared with us at the end of the tour. This tour is absolutely worth checking out.
