Fabulous! Ben our tour guide was outstanding. I was a new kayaker and was definitely worried, but heā€™s a great teacher. Getting in and out of the boat was fairly easy. The kayaks were comfortable and had great back support. We got bottled water before we launched. Bring bug spray; luckily Ben shared. The river we paddled was so serene. We saw some turtles and a baby alligator. Ben was informative of the surrounding areas. It was definitely a highlight of our trip! At the end we got a little snack, that hit the spot.

My roommate signed me up for this event. Although Iā€™ve never been kayaking, the guides were super helpful and were always nearby with helpful tips to make it easier. Definitely recommend.

My daughter and I learned some things on our tourā€”like how tannic acid affects the color of the water snd that alligators like the small one we saw on the trip are non-aggressive. It was a fun and informative out-and-back river trip.
