Emmanuel was an amazing guide for our kayaking tour! He was very educated and knowledgeable about the area, and you could tell he really enjoys what he does. He made everyone feel comfortable, explained everything clearly, and kept the experience fun and safe the whole time. He was also super kind and patient, which made the tour even more enjoyable. I would definitely recommend booking a tour with Emmanuel — he made the experience unforgettable!

This was a nice tour that had great views of both the lagoon through the clear kayak and the skyline of part of San Juan. Mike, the guide was very informative and took great care of the group, even members who had not kayaked and needed a little more support. He told us about some of the locations around the lagoon as well as some of the local sea life.

So much fun and a great opportunity to see some of the wildlife in the Condado lagoon. The tour guides were very knowledgeable and kept their eyes open to show the animals. Fun time!

Amazing experience! Me and my mom had the best time and the instructors were so experienced and sweet. We were first time kayakers and they made us feel so comfortable.

We had such a wonderful time! Amanda is amazing. Truly a joy to hear her talk about the lagoon and all the wonderful life around it, both plants and animals. It is evident that she loves her birthplace of Puerto Rico and is passionate about preserving and protecting the native plants and animals. Additionally, she had many wonderful suggestions regarding places to eat and sweet stories about life in PR. We went straight to one restaurant she suggested as soon as we were finished with our kayak tour, and it did not disappoint!
We saw many large and beautiful starfish, tiny and somewhat larger fish jumping, beautiful birds perched in the surrounding trees, a hint of a sea turtle or two. The manatees were apparently hiding from us, but the trip was absolutely worthwhile, regardless. We'll try again next time we visit!

This was a great morning activity that everyone in the family loved. Amanda and Mike were awesome guides, very knowledgeable and made sure everyone enjoyed the trip. Our 3 and 5 year old boys liked seeing starfish, turtles and a baby manatee.

Claudia was an astounding guide, and her pride in Puerto Rico really shines during the tour. It was a fantastic and relaxing experience that I would recommend to anyone.
Thalia_S, Jul 2026
This was such a fun experience. I was a little scared because I’ve never kayaked before, but the guides Odla and Eman were phenomenal. They were very patient, kind, and funny! Odla especially made me feel very comfortable and reassured (& his humor was top tier). They even sent out a list of popular places to eat and visit during our stay!! I highly recommend this activity and these two guides!
Leslie_O, Jul 2026

Super fun and sweet! Easy kayaking around condado lagoon and beach! Got to see starfish and a turtle!
Clair_Y, Jun 2026
We had great time kayaking the first time, it was fun to see pelicans, also fish, and star fish through the transparent kayak bottom. The kayaking guides/instructors were both very helpful and friendly.

Emmanuel was very knowledgeable and made the experience fun! I wish the tour was a bit longer but it was a perfect fit for our plans that day.
Nadia_D, Jun 2026

Emmanuel was an outstanding guide — very knowledgeable, professional, and made the entire experience enjoyable with his great energy and guidance. I truly appreciated the excellent service and the attention to making sure everyone had a wonderful time. This was an unforgettable experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and amazing adventure.

My 18-year-old daughter and I did the kayak tour at Condado Lagoon and had such a great experience! Our tour guide, Miguel, was patient, knowledgeable, and made the whole trip enjoyable. He took the time to explain the area, answer our questions, and made us feel comfortable on the water.
We were lucky enough to see a few starfish and even spotted some sea turtles popping their heads up lol. It was a fun, relaxing, and memorable experience. Highly recommend this tour, especially if you get Miguel as your guide!
Dominique_R, Jun 2026
So much fun! Even though I didn't seeuch wildlife, it was still worth ot for the kayaking experience. I wish I had the opportunity to kayak myself, without a partner, it was still a good time.
Amanda_F, Jun 2026
Great paddle around lagoon and edge of ocean. We saw manatees, sea turtles, pelicans, starfish, and iguanas. Great guides. Thanks!
Mandy_K, Jun 2026
JC and Jann were awesome! They were very patient with everyone when it was clear that a lot of people didn’t have any prior kayaking experience. They gave clear instructions. They were very personable and pointed out lots of cool wildlife during the tour just overall a great experience with both of the guides.
Ursula_S, Jun 2026
Our Tour Guide Odla made the experience even more exciting. The glass bottom kayak is a must do experience. Odla was witty, knowledgeable and a great guide. 10 out of 10.
Jailyn_M, Jun 2026
This was super relaxing and fun to do with friends, 10/10 experience with Chelly! We loved
her and how
informational she was about PR 🇵🇷
Brenna_C, Jun 2026
Claudia was a great guide! She led us around the bay and made sure we saw all the organisms you could find in the bay. She gave a very comprehensive review of how to kayak. Claudia took pictures and shared them with us afterwards. She even generously offered to provide advice on things to do in Puerto Rico for the rest of the trip.
Carol_F, Jun 2026
Odla and Claudia were very friendly and informative. We did not see any manate, but they pointed out other thing of interest like jelly fish, sea stars, iguanas and fish; some of the group also saw a turtle and a pelican.
Sara_F, Jun 2026
Amazing tour, Amanda and Mike did a great job. She took great pictures and did an excellent job of giving insight about Puerto Rican culture/history. We saw so many turtles and starfish!
Melissa_K, Jun 2026
This was a great tour! Our guides Jaan and Odla were really fun. They made sure everyone had a great time. Jaan pointed out sealife and told us a little bit of history. They also did a great job of teaching how to Kayak, so as a beginner that was very helpful.
Jada_J, Jun 2026
Odla was my tour guy (sorry if I spelt his name wrong) and he was great! He made the experience very memorable and I definitely would do it again if he was my guide. He even spoke like 3 different languages (including French) which I also speak so that was very cool that it was just English or Spanish. Had a great time with him and would highly recommend.

This was a fun experience. The guide was very good about keeping us together even if some haven't kayaked before. He taught us about the animal life and environment too. The lagoon is beautiful to kayak in.
Brooke_S, Jun 2026
Emma & Amanda were amazing & fun guides. My group was a shy group, and Emma had his work cut out for him to get us to finally participate in his fun banter. I loved that Amanda remembered my daughter from last time just by her tattoos. I highly recommend them for your kayak tours.
Michele_S, Jun 2026
We had a lovely peaceful morning rowing the clear canoes. We had great weather and our guide Amanda had a lot of interesting information about Puerto Rico, the sea creatures here and other sights to see. Fun family activity!
Vanessa_W, May 2026
We had a wonderful experience on our guided kayak tour. Claudia was very knowledge and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this activity while in Puerto Rico.
Kristy_M, May 2026
Doing a clear kayak was the best kayaking I've done - seeing fish directly under my feet was amazing! Our guide, Claudia, had a great eye to turn us toward wildlife, and she was super knowledgeable about the area, the marine life and eco system, and more. What a great hour to spend on the water!

Amazing ! It was too quick! We had such an amazing time and learned a few things. The weather was amazing
Bijula_B, May 2026
The experience was worst, first of, my daughters paddle was broken and was not staying in place for it to get through, the guide (OS) found it after first five mins but instead of getting it changed he let us continue with it , she suffered so much to even handle it since each side was twisting back while paddling, the worst part of all is he left us out to come catch up even when he was half way across the lagoon with strong winds, and there was only 2 pairs for the whole session , we and another pair , he left us alone to come catch up
At a point my daughter was about to cry since she got scared .. worst experience
