Awesome experience! - If you're looking for a really unique adventure, look no further, you've found the idea day with Mike & his crew! My friend & I had so much fun but it was also very relaxing & educational. Mike is an exceptional host. He provides dry bags & all the ice cold water you'll need. His knowledge of the Florida ecosystem is on point. The Hobie peddle kayaks are a fun way yo zip around the waterways. The wildlife is abundant. Trust me, you'll have a blast.

Kayak tour - highly recommended! - There is a clear reason why Mike's Coastal Expeditions is rated Tripadvisor no.1 for outdoor activities in Bonita Springs - the guided tour in the Hobie pedal kayaks was right up there for a highlight of our 3 week trip to Florida. The serene nature of these kayaks means you can drift right up alongside manatees and dolphins without bothering them. Being able to be so close to such wonderful animals is a joy. Mike is extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the locality and mangroves, the wildlife and the area in general. We finished off the trip with a stop on the local beach, hunting for shells and taking in additional information about the manatees, surfacing for air right by us. We loved our trip and would recommend it to anybody!

An amazing and relaxing day on the water! - This kayak tour was the best tour we've ever done. We watched dolphins play with their baby just a few feet from our kayak, saw a shark and made our way through the mangrove tunnels. The Hobie kayak is really cool and super easy to use. Mike is a great guide, he gives you lots of time to enjoy the experience and then sends pictures and videos afterwards. I would definitely say this was the highlight of our trip to Florida!

Great way to spend the morning - First time kayaking, what a great experience, mike showed us a lot of wildlife and explained what we were looking at, he was very informative. I am a 60 year old, not in the best shape, but was very surprised how easy the pedal kayaking was, mike buys the top of the line kayaks. My wife and I are looking forward to trying out the night time tour once our friends come to vist We would highly recommend setting up an excursion with mike

Fantastic Tour!!!! Highly recommend this! - Mike's Coastal Expeditions, LLC. Fantastic Tour!!!! Highly recommend this! This is my 3rd tour with Mike. You never know what you’re going to come across so it’s different every time. So far we have seen Dolphins, Manatees and a lot of different kinds of Birds, my favorite is Spoonbill Cranes. My favorite part of the tour is stopping at the beach and finding sea shells. Love the Hobie Kayaks, it's so easy to pedal and keep your hands free to take photos and enjoy the wildlife. Mike will tell you about the environment, wildlife and mangroves. He will take photos of our trip and shared them by air drop. So you have them before you even leave the area. I live in Cape Coral and have a lot of guest. I can’t wait to share this with them. and I am already looking forward to our next trip.

Perfect Day on Estero Bay - Mike was an amazing guide! Our family had so much fun while also learning about beautiful Estero bay. We saw beautiful birds and a dolphin while also catching a glimpse of a manatee! The beach we peddled to was beautiful and the shelling was amazing. The hobie kayaks were easy to use for our whole family (especially for our 10 & 13 year old boys) and Mike was a patient instructor. Mike was so knowledgeable about the local area and shared so much information with us. I would highly recommend Mike’s tour if you are in the area! We’ll be back again!

Highly recommended, Mike does a great job! - Mike is very knowledgeable and knows a lot about the wildlife and nature there. We were travelling in a small group, so Mike always had an eye on us in case anyone needed help. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed it. The Hobie kayaks are easy to use and therefore suitable for everyone :)
