Our guides, Christopher and Brandon were knowledgable and entertaining. They pointed out a lot of interesting wildlife and explained the advantages of mangroves in the ecosytem and the interaction of the plants and animals in them. It was great to have a view from the river. They also provided a snack of fresh pineapple and watermelon and water and fruit juices. A really worthwhile kayak outing with a crocodile-sighting conclusion.
