Planning Your Perfect Trip to Weeki
Whether you plan to hang out at the house relaxing or explore the river or neighborhood, we have some tips for planning your perfect experience in Weeki Wachee.
As you can probably already see, Weeki Wachee is all about the River Life. We love our river, and we care deeply about its inhabitants. Touring the river is also a great activity to learn about Weeki Wachee and experience the sights and sounds that bring life to this area every day.
Speaking of touring the river, we also recently started offering our customers the option of taking a Jon boat ride for a tour up river. Why a Jon Boat you ask? Because in order to appreciate this rivers beauty, you must go several miles up river and be able to navigate extremely tight and shallow waters. Our 6 person Jon boat is fully equipped to give you an amazing experience. Dave is a USCG licensed Captain so rest assured, you're in good hands.
We offer private boat tours Monday thru Friday with tours typically lasting a couple of hours. You can expect to go several miles up river on this tour for some unbelieve picture opportunities of this magical river. The cost is $295 and includes the boat, fuel, bottled water, and Captain Dave will personally pick you up and drop you off at your dock (or a river destination of your choice).
If you're looking for other tour options don't hesitate reaching out to us. We can customize a day on the river just for you.
