Gina was so thoughtful and entertaining. Perfect balance of information, chit chat and quiet moments of observation. The manatees and the area were beautiful.

TRUST ME!” – if you are down in the Orlando area, take a break from the Disney Mouse and Universal Studios Marvel Super Heroes…and go TREAT yourself to the 3-hour Kayaking with the Manatee excursion with/through Adventures in Florida!! What an Incredible get-a-way from it all of the touristy attractions and crowds to see and first-hand experience Floridian nature this up close and personal. The manatees are such friendly and gentle giants; they literally came right up right beside and under our kayaks; we also saw a few gators as well…. Simply AMAZING!! Our tour guides for the day…Bill & Gina REALLY made this experience one for the memory books; especially with our group’s first-time kayaker who really enjoyed it (as did the rest of the group)! Bill’s keen knowledge and awareness of things in nature during our adventure was completely Spot-On! Gina was so Kind in ensuring that all the group stayed together and involved for the 3- hour trip. She also managed to take the time to get some GREAT pics of us and of the animals & nature that we saw during the day. I started this review off by saying “TRUST ME!” – the Adventures in Florida’s Kayaking with the Manatees is a SURE MUST either for the Orlando out of state vacationer or Florida resident. This 3- hour trip is Completely Priceless!! Also…it was EXTREMELY reasonable in cost. We are already looking forward to round #2 with Bill & Gina in October 2021!!

It was a great experience for my family. We saw manatees, birds, fish and more. Easy paddling for us non kayakers! Jimmy was an excellent guide and a pleasure to be with.
