Great tour! Your tour guide, Josh, was super friendly and had a lot of great information about the manatees and area. Would definitely do it again and recommend to others.

Great first experience and I fully plan on doing this again in some of the other locations. As first time kayakers we got stuck in the currents and those are hard to get out of but thanks to help from another friendly kayaker he towed us through the rough spots. The trip up the river was challenging but in a good way. The trip down the river was AMAZING! The current did the work on the way back and we just steered and that was when we got to truly relax and enjoy the scenery. Our tour guide Brie was very sweet and she did a good job checking on all of us (which was tough because we were scattered all up and down the river so kudos to her). My only suggestion would be for the tour guides to have ropes to help those that maybe canā€™t kayak well or have no idea how to and tow struggling group members.

Thanks so much for your feedback!! We're so glad you enjoyed your clear kayak tour and are going to check out some of our other locations! The paddle to the top is more of an intermediate paddle, as mentioned on our experience but we couldn't agree more - the float back is so worth it!! Typically our guides do have supplies to help out with towing so if you ever need help and let them know, they're more than willing to do so! We appreciate the feedback! Looking forward to exploring with you again in the future!! :)
