    Aaron is a wonderful tour guide. He ensured we would have the most enjoyable experience learning about the flora and fauna of the area. He pointed out anhingas, egrets, herons, macaques, turtles, gar, mullets, and alligators! We saw tons of wildlife! We even saw mother monkeys holding their babies and bringing them to the water for a drink. He impressed upon us the ecological importance of eel grass and the preservation of the habitat around the springs for all creatures (including us). The water was crystal clear and he set a comfortable pace that allowed us to soak everything in leisurely. It was a lovely tour. An added plus… he’s funny and down to earth. I treated my son and his friend to this tour and we had a fabulous time! We would DEFINITELY do this again. Aaron is the best!
