Amazing Tour, Amazing Guides - My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our kayak experience in the mangroves and sandbars. Mark and Fabia are amazing tour guides and go above and beyond. We were scheduled for noon but Mark alerted us to the low tides which would limit where we could go on the tour and graciously changed our time to later in the day when the water level was higher. We learned so much about the mangroves and ecosystem and the animals/sealife that inhabit these parts. We saw pelicans and blue heron, starfish and crabs. We got to hold a jelly fish snd tree crabs and the highlight saw dolphins at sunset. Would highly recommend any of Rivers to Oceans kayak tours. Thank you again Mark and Fabia Rob, Marisa, Nadia and Gabe Masutti

So fun for everyone! Great owners! - Our family was a group from ages 4 to 70 ... and in between. Due to very high winds that day, Mark switched us to the 2 hour jungle tour through the mangroves. I am glad he did. Fun for everyone!! Educational and just enough challenge. Mark has comfortable, high quality kayaks and he and his wife took special care that the everyone had a good and safe experience. Great personal attention. I highly recommend the company. We look forward to doing the 4 hour next time.
