An experience for both adults and children. You paddle in a small group and get close to nature and we got to see manatees, turtles and alligators plus a lot of birds. A tip is to have good sunglasses such as polarized lenses to see things under the surface of the water more easily (reduce reflection of the sun in the water). We had a very nice and knowledgeable guide who really enhanced the tour.
