We went on the Saturday before mothers day. We were in the guided tour of the mangro trees for beginners. We did get a short lesson before heading out with our group and then we were off on our adventur. Maybe half way through the guided tour we got separated from the group. We knew that they had to be close so we paddled up around the bend. No one was there, WE WERE LOST! Now we were all basically beginners so we didn't know what to do, we just kept on the path and hit many dead ends and then we ended up in a not so nice part of town (Looking at the houses and trash in that area). I was starting to get scared. We ended up turning ourselves around and went back the exact way we had started from. We did finally got to a nicer neighborhood and saw a very nice lady on her dock. We explained everything and she let us use her phone to call the office for help. The gentleman that we were talking to said everyone else including our guided had finished awhile ago and left to go home. He never said wait there and we will come get you or send help. He know the exact address because the lady who was letting us use her phone told him it. We ended up finally making our way back to the start, but the 3 hour tour took us an extra hour and half. Very disappointed and kinda angry that they would leave paying tourist behind and not even bother to go out looking for them. This is a horrible accident waiting to happen, somebody is really going to get hurt if this is the way they take care of their clients 😢

We have been operating this Tour for over 10 years and there are 100's of great reviews, but we have never had anyone get lost as we go at a very relaxed pace. We have had thousands of beginners and we are sorry that our tour is now blemished with this disappointment. We are sorry as our Guide thought you took a detour on purpose. Thankfully, the area is full of Homeowners who are also patrons and they are safe friendly and great neighbors.

Had a great time. We had beautiful weather this time of year. Sarah was an excellent tour guide. We went with kayaks, but I'll try paddle boards next time.

Hi Pamela, thank you kindly for your review. Is there anything that I can do to move that review to 5 stars as that is always our goal. I;m glad to know you will be returning so we can move that up a notch next time.

Such an amazing experience! My nine year old son and I took a paddle boarding excursion with an amazing guide named Sarah. Sarah was positive , upbeat and very knowledgeable about the area. She took the time to give us a quick lesson and made sure we were comfortable before the trip began. Sarah pointed out the wildlife and took many pictures of everyone on the excursion. It was an extremely relaxing and beautiful way to spend a morning. I would recommend this trip to anyone of any age.
