It’s total relaxation on the kayak while you glide over the most beautifully clear water you’ll ever see . Final destination refreshing spring where you can swim , snorkel or jump in on the rope swing .Chairs , towels and lunch provided .

Our guides were courteous. This is over priced by $50 to $75 per person. Kayak about 30 minutes total; snorkel, swim and rope or jump into water the rest of the time. The self propelled snorkel equipment not best option for this environment, so we didn’t use it. They did sit up chairs and had towels, protective phone holders, sunscreen, water and Gatorade. Equipment was well used but worked. Picnic is a dry 6” sub from Publix. Cypress Springs is in poor condition both in and out of the water, dangers lurk. Fallen trees and branches. The water is fresh spring water and crystal clean, so cold not much to look at in the water. The banks of the Springs is not easy to navigate and gets over crowded. One bank has a huge culvert then extends a makeshift wall to hold water runoff from the Springs water. The rest has tree roots with some sand areas. A sandy trail through over grown weeds. Port-a-potties and trash binds down a driving trail 1/2 block away. People kayak, paddle board and boat through the center of the Springs while people are jumping in and snorkeling. Because of the people jumping in you do not get to explore the core of the Springs. Watch out for yourself. I think you can get there on your own and spend a lot less for the adventure. Go to Vernon and rent the equipment yourself.

This is great for young and old! But be prepared to paddle longer than you think you are going to. Time slows way down when kayaking or paddleboarding! Savanah and Maya were the greatest and spoiled us so well! Lunch at the springs was great, the seado skooters were a blast. The minute I did this into the spring, I was so happy I did! No regrets! Beautiful!

Cody was our guide and did an exceptional job. He was personable, kind, knowledgeable, and provided insightful information about the spring and surrounding environment. Overall, the experience exceeded our expectations and was well worth both our time and investment.
The water, while cold, was incredibly refreshing in the Florida heat. The company thoughtfully provides bug spray, sunscreen, chairs, and towels, which added to the comfort and convenience of the trip. With approximately 2.5 hours spent at the spring, there was plenty to enjoy—including a rope swing and other water activities. All necessary gear was provided, and everything was well-organized.
The meeting location was easy to find, set at a Publix parking lot where guests leave their vehicles and ride in a comfortable, air-conditioned van to the site. Cody even curated a fantastic playlist that everyone enjoyed during the drive.
Another highlight was that photos were taken throughout the trip and made available online afterward, eliminating the need to worry about capturing the perfect moment yourself.
The only drawback was the condition of some of the equipment. For instance, the back of my son’s chair broke as soon as he sat down. However, Cody responded quickly, offering a temporary fix that allowed my son to continue enjoying the trip. Still, it would be beneficial for the owner to consider updating the equipment.
Despite this, we highly recommend this tour—especially with Cody as your guide. You won’t be disappointed.

We had fun! Definitely bring your sunscreen! We saw some turtles, birds and fish. The water was so cold and the spring was so cool.

Today was amazing. It was a little exercise but laid back fun and an opportunity to see things we had never seen before. The rope swing was so fun!
