What to do and see in Clearwater, Florida (FL): The Best Bus Tours

September 17, 2021 Roger Rusk

Home to some of the best beaches in America, Clearwater is a great family beach destination. Sure, it’s in Florida, but it’s not Giant Rodent Florida (a.k.a. Orlando) or Crazy Spring Break Florida (a.k.a. Fort Lauderdale). Rather, it’s Calm, Old-Fashioned Florida… which is something worth seeing. Oh, and the weather’s outstanding.

This was an AMAZING day trip! You get so much for the price, you won’t regret it. Our tour guide PJ was great, the van is comfortable and clean, and breakfast and lunch were fresh and more than we expected. Even in off season we got to see the resident manatees, Homosassa park is small but fun with lots of animals to see, and the air boat ride is really fun.

The airboat ride was a blast, our boat pilot controlled the boat like a real vet. I had no idea that these boats were so quick and nimble. The zoo was a nice surprise and the facility was well organized and well kept.
