Our guide Brian was outstanding. He gave us so many unique facts that even though I have did this tour before and had a great time, Brian's information on Florida and its marine life and plant life was really great. I highly recommend this trip.

This tour was amazing! We saw manatees, dolphins, alligators and many birds. The kayaking was easy and the water was calm. Our guide Terrance was very knowledgeable and told us a lot of history of the area and about the wildlife. He even took photos of us throughout the adventure for no additional cost. This was the perfect way to spend our Thanksgiving day!

My wife and I had a great adventure with Brian. We wanted to see three things. Brian was able to find all three: an allegator, a dolphin, over a dozen manatees, and even threw in 4 flamingos. He's very knowledgeable and we learned much about the area. Overall it was just a very enjoyable adventure.

Our guide Tyler was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and friendly. I would come back and do this every day. No dolphins on our tour but 30-50 manatees. We were able to pet them and they hung out with us for a bit. Exceeded my expectations. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. We will be doing this again. Felt safe the whole time. Thank you for a great memory Tyler

My wife and I had a great time kayaking. Our tour guide Zach did a great job. He educated us on the wildlife, and he lead us to areas that had many dolphins and manatees. We highly recommend this kayaking experience!
Cindy_W, Oct 2022
Zach was amazing. He knew the history behind the canal, the manatees, the dolphins and the Native American history that began the canal. We were the only ones on that particular tour so he let us spend as much time as we wanted with the dolphins and in the cove were the manatees were sunning. We saw blue herons and other birds. He even knew the the history of the mangrove trees. It was relaxing and beautiful. Zach Roush was the most awesome guide ever.

Dane was very knowledgeable about the area and animals here in Florida. We had an amazing morning on the water with him. We got to see a dolphin chase some small fish right up to where we were launching. Even something Dane hadn’t ever seen. Very enjoyable time on the water.
Becky_V, Jul 2022
Our guide Trevor was very knowledgeable, laid back, and fun. We were able to see a ton of manatee "playing" in the water, a jellyfish, dolphin, stingrays and horseshoe crabs. Definitely a good time!

Freedom was very knowledgeable and knew right where to go to see everything. We were able to see dolphins, lots of manatees and a jellyfish like animal we were able to track down and even hold. Lots of fun
Jill_M, Apr 2022
We saw several dolphins in their feeding frenzy, and lots of birds. Chance was a terrific, knowledgeable guide. We had a great time on the water.
Sheri_Z, Feb 2022
Our guide Chance was excellent he did his best however the experience was not as presented. Wildlife I know can’t be controlled but in no way was this an up close let alone seeing any dolphins or manatees. Not sure if because this was not at the normal launch site due to construction but was disappointing overall.
Deborah_C, Feb 2022
It was a great adventure - lots of fun - we found manatee bones/stingray/horseshoe crab - the water was so clear & beautiful
