Tour was cancelled on me by vendor. I must wait for 7 days for my $200.00 refund while on vacation. I could have used these funds to book another event!!! I'm not happy. No one reached out to me on your end to see if I needed support with anything. It was not until I called to ask questions a out my refund. Again, not happy with customer servic Thank you and be well.

Had an amazing river kayaking trip with Lucas a little over a week ago. Our kids (9, 12, & 14) were a little nervous as it was only their 2nd time kayaking, but Lucas made sure they felt comfortable on the water and shared his wildlife knowledge with us which they really enjoyed, especially learning about snake birds and their "special powers". The river was beautiful and gave us a glimpse of another side of Florida that we had not experienced before. It was quiet and peaceful with lots of wildlife to be seen. We were incredibly fortunate it to see around 10 alligators (small and never concerning), a turtle, several types of birds, and even a manatee! Our stop for lunch was great and the food provided - cold cuts, cheese, crackers, spinach dip, cherries, and oreos definitely hit the mark for our group. We had a really great time and would definitely recommend Adventures in Florida as well as our guide, Lucas. Thanks for some great memories!

We loved the tranquility in the middle of nature. Especially appreciated the little river beach interlude with Picknick and swimming after the first 3 hours. Very knowledgeable guide Greg pointed out a lot of wildlife and was helpful and patient. A bit of a workout but exhilarating experience. So glad we did it.
