Great experience - From the beginning our tour guide Eric made us feel very comfortable! He made sure everyone got on the boards and new how to navigate them before starting the tour. He was very knowledgeable and added a lot of value to the trip. Example: finding shells and crabs, grabbing them from the water and letting us hold them. He also took pictures with his phone and sent them to us which was awesome! Otherwise, I wouldn't have gotten a photo with my son.

Great day on the water! - I came to the Ft Myers area for a little solo vacation without planning a lot. I noticed Eric was doing paddle boarding tours and decided to give it a shot which was the best decision I think I made the whole trip! Eric spread great knowledge about the nature, wildlife, and history of the area. Considering I’ve never been paddle boarding, Eric took the time to ease into it and give some pointers to make a great experience!

Unforgettable - During our Christmas trip to US, we did choose this trip in hope for a positive day on the water. We unfortunately didn’t see Manatees or Dolphins, but beside this we had a great day with a lot of fun, facts about the wildlife and nature and a great tour guide in Eric. Thanks for making this trip unforgettable for us! All kids (6-13 years enjoyed) We can strongly recommend this trip - both for skilled and new once in paddle board. All the best from Denmark :)

Best paddle board trip of a lifetime! - We arrived early and Eric was surprised to see us. So we decided to get in the water and get used to it in case we fell in. Eric told us that no one usually falls in and if one does, it brings good luck! Okay well I being mom fell in first! Yes, everyone laughed! After a while, my husband fell straight backwards and we had to search for his glasses!! That was a laugh out loud moment! Little did we know while looking for my husband’s glasses, my daughter in law fell in just because she looked back to see what happened and then my son fell shortly after! Mom only fell once and the rest fell again! We had so much fun with Eric that we had a blast falling in! It was our first time paddle boarding but we all loved it and will do it again and again!! Eric taught us so many interesting facts about the area and the wildlife I could have stayed and listened all day! Being just our family on this trip, it made us feel so comfortable and Eric just fit right in with us and our goofiness! It would have been nice to see a dolphin or manatee but I think we scared them away with our falling! At one point I thought I saw a very large turtle and Eric came over and lone behold it was just an old crab trap!! LOL….Again I got the entire family laughing again. Eric was so amazing with us and helping me get my board and paddle too!! I cannot express enough how wonderful this experience was and how much we all enjoyed Eric and all he taught us! Each area he took us to was more amazing than the last! Eric, you were so great and we could not ask for a better tour! We will be doing this every year and will request you every single time! You will become our family too! Thank you Three Brothers for such an amazing time and we love the boards! Keeping doing great things! All our love The Hoovers
