The leader of our trip, Victor, was pleasant and patient, as well as informative. We were offered the choice between a kayak and a paddleboard - in our tour group of 7, 5 went with kayaks. The trip was a round trip excursion, about 2.5 hrs of slow pace in total, with a 15 minute free explore session in a shallow area where several of us found starfish. The trip through the mangroves was interesting but, as you might expect, it all looked the same after the first hour. We did travel through dense mangroves, such that those of us on paddle boards needed to kneel to get through some passages. We also witnessed two dolphins attempting to corral schools of fish in the shallow banks. This is definitely a recommended trip but probably not one to repeat.
