Kayak under the moonlight in a clear, illuminated boat in Lake Ivanhoe, Orlando, for a one-of-a-kind experience. This is great for both beginners and more experienced kayakers, so everyone is welcome to see the aquatic life below you lit up at night.

It was a very cool experience
We loved being on the water at night but the group was to large for one leader and besides the Kayakers there were two people on Paddleboards one of them had never Paddleboarded before so the leader had to keep going back to check on them which slowed the group down significantly
Also it was hard to hear the leader. It would’ve been better if he had a microphone.
But still did enjoy the experience

Mike was laid back and so friendly!!! Enjoyed the history lesson about the area and enjoyed the sunset and peace of the water!!! Water was beautiful and clean. Wished the lights on the boat were brighter and the daughter thought the life jackets needed a good rinse. Otherwise, it was worth it!!

Wow! What can I say. Mr. Mike was a phenomenal guide and an even better conversationalist. He made this experience worth it with an arsenal of “bad jokes”. Time flew as we took in the scenery while indulging in edifying information. This was an amazing experience.
Response from Host, Dec 2025
Awesome!!! We’re so happy you had such a wonderful time with us! We love Mike!

Guide was amazing. Not exactly what I thought it was when I booked, it’s a lake. But I’m almost 100% sure that was my fault, I’m from out of town and used to rivers in my state, so I think I had some assumptions. But even though it wasn’t 100% what I thought it was, guide was great, my employees had a ton of fun. At the end of the day, that was my goal, zero complaints from me. Super nice guide, felt bad I was the only one who tipped the guide

Such a fun way to spend an evening in Orlando ! Rich was our guide for the evening. We had a pretty large group and he was so upbeat and friendly. Beautiful area to kayak and really enjoyed seeing the sunset as we paddled along. Lots of beginners in our group who all did well.

The kayaks need better back support or foot stops for leverage. I’m short and it was difficult to paddle - but a beautiful night for kayaking!

If you’re looking for a unique outdoor experience I highly recommend doing this.
What to expect:
We booked the Nighttime Paddle experience at 7:30, checked in at 7pm, they did the safety and what to expect briefing, We paddled out shortly after 8pm.
We followed the guide Bryce and Savannah, after about 30mins we stopped and they took complimentary photos of everyone, I loved that there was no charge for the pictures, most of these adventures they charge for them. We paddled around on our own for most of the time, so don’t worry about having to stay all together, they just don’t want you to wonder off too far.
At about 9:15 we started heading back.
What I would suggest if you’re going for the first time:
Dress based on the weather not the fact that it’s a water sport, I barely got wet, just drips from the paddle. it was a little chilly so I wish I wore a sweater or something a little warmer.
Use the restroom just before leaving the dock.
Bring snacks and soft drinks if you’d like, a couple had wine that was a good idea:)
They’ll provide a waterproof bag for your belongings. If you’re together, it’s best to go in a tandem rather than each going individually.
Bring cash for tip at the end.
Suggestions for Business operators:
Bryce and Savannah were great!!! Keep them:)
The battery packs kept dying, maybe upgrade those, it was annoying having to keep asking to get mine changed out, half of the experience I had no lights.
Overall great experience and I would do it again.

It was absolutely a beautiful experience because of the nature, we got to watch the sunset. The people were very friendly and out tour guide Bob had good stories to share.
My only disappointment is that I was expecting the LED lights to penetrant the water better to give a better view into it. The LED lights were loosely placed in the kayak, because they were not inside the water directly they did not illuminate it much.
Response from Host, Mar 2025
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback about you experience. We appreciate you. We are always looking for ways to improve.

The tour was good, although we had to go viral because of the wind and when I arrived my shoes had been stolen.
Response from Host, Feb 2025
We are sorry to hear about your experience. We wish we had control of the wind picking up during your tour. Our guides always recommend either taking your shoes with you or securing them in our offices. Although shoes being taken has only happened three times in the many years we have operated tours here, it happens and we are sorry to hear that it happened to you.
