Blue Heron River Tours Inc, DeLand

The tour was excellent. Captain Josh was extremely knowledgeable about the river and it's inhabitants. We got to see a rare bird. It is actually what they used for the velociraptor sound in Jurassic Park. It was kinda erie to hear it close by! We all enjoyed the trip! I highly recommend it. Good family fun.

Great tour! My family and I very much enjoyed the entire experience. Left from the dock promptly and after a short safety speech we were on the way. Captain Josh was very knowledgeable about the history of the area and the river. He also had an encyclopedia like knowledge of the local wildlife. This was no jungle cruise like boat ride with canned "attractions" hidden on the riverbank. The day we had our tour we saw Vultures, Cranes, Woodpeckers, Ducks, a bunch of turtles, 3 Alligators, and a Manatee. The tour was about two hours which is just about right. When we came around the last bend in the river to the marina I was not bored and not eager for more. There is a bar and grill at the dock that was family friendly and though we didn't, others brought coolers on the boat for refreshments and that seemed fine. Thanks
