As an activity to do with our guests while getting married in the Keys, we rented 8 kayaks from Garl's for a half-day for us all to get out on the water. On the phone and in emails before our visit Suzette was very friendly and easy to get in touch with, and was very accommodating. When we arrived for our excursion, the staff was all very helpful. One of them recommended a few spots for us to check out to get out in a swim amongst the mangroves, and told us where we to look for Manatees. Another let one of our guests borrow a pair of sunglasses for the trip since she forgot to bring some along. They helped everyone in and out of the water, and the advice of where to kayak to was perfect, as we found two Manatees in a channel and were able to pet them! All of our guests raved about the experience, and Suzette even sent us a follow up email to congratulate us and thank us. I've rented kayaks in the Keys in the past from other places, and Garl's definitely is a step above the rest with their guest service. Highly recommended!

My wife and I took the all day hiking/kayaking/fishing tour (8 hours) with our friends and their 5 year old son. Garl is a wealth of information, literally stopping to show us everything from a baby barred owl, to an alligator hole in the marsh, to identifying different species of snakes. Garl is professional and safe and I would absolutely return to do another tour with him. It's not often that people find their dream job, Garl is one of those who loves his job and loves sharing his knowledge with his friends and customers. I have a feeling we'll be seeing Garl on a Television show one of these days, so go take a tour now!

This is my first review on TripAdvisor. Our experience at Garl's was so amazing that I feel compelled to let others know. I encourage you to take advantage of this tour. Based on the reviews from this site, I decided to book a tour for myself and my two teenage daughters. It was the highlight for our trip, and if I ever return to the area, I would take the tour again. Don was our guide, and he was great. While he has an abundance of knowledge about the area and was eager to share, what I appreciated most was his ability to help us understand the ecosystem of the park and all that we were seeing. It is easy and pretty basic to memorize facts and spit them back out. Don provided so much more than that, explaining the history, evolution, and current conditions of much of what we saw. We did the full day tour, and our experience was in line with what other reviewers have detailed. The one regret I have is not bringing a camera. The next time I go I will do so and keep it in a waterproof container that can go around the neck.
