"Staycation with the Manatees has left a lasting impression on me and the 3 kids. The day tour was fun and educational which was conducted by expert facilitators. The tent was simply magical with the fairy lights and well made beds. The view of the Manatees and sea cows bring tranquility to the entire experience. I highly recommend this programme for couples and families. Special credit to Edmil, Uma, Jing Yi and Angeline whose personal touches have made our experience extra amazing!"

"The enitre journey was very educational. Learning about the habitats the feeding habits and understand the importance of conservation for the animals. As for the stay overnight ,It was a very magical moment when you open up the tent and get to see the manatees and arapaima swimming around gracefully first thing in the morning."

"A “pandastic” and wonderful experience!! Thoroughly delightful! Kudos to the team for all the behind the scenes planning and execution! From the meet up to the dining, shower and sleep arrangements and the following morning, simply wonderful! The guides, particularly Nicholas, Franco, Sherlyn and Clement were fantastic! They were very friendly, very knowledgeable and not forgetting all the other animal trainers and our animal friends - they added the extra umph factor to the staycation! A highly recommended staycation! Both educational and thoroughly enjoyable! A big thumbs up to the team and River Wonders!"

"The staycation was fantastic. An educational and fun experience for both kids and adults. A chance to see behind the scenes and have interactive sessions with animals which you normally will not have access to during usual walk-ins."

"The Staycation with Manatees was an awesome and informative experience! We got to stay with the gentle giants and observed them throughout the night, as if we owned the aquarium! The experience was pretty magical seeing them swim and frolick right outside your tent! The behind-the-scenes access was also interesting as we learnt how they maintained the manatees tank. Last but not least, we had a wonderful team of guides who were knowledgeable, friendly and made things fun for us! A big shout out to Edmil, Jing Yi and Anthony! Thanks to them for also helping to prepare the birthday surprise for my wife at a short notice! "
