Incredible views and relaxing kayak ride - This was by far the best part of my trip to Florida. Andrew was a fantastic guide. He was really knowledgeable about all of the animals we saw (which I really loved) and he was super sweet and patient with all of us. The sunset we saw was so beautiful and there were quite a few dolphins we got to kayak around. It was a pretty surreal experience. I went with a small group and it was such a relaxing and beautiful evening, I will definitely be coming back any time I go to Florida.

Favorite activity of our trip! - We chose two 2-person kayaks as we are a family of four with two kids. The company got in touch with me soon after I booked to confirm. Our guide, Andrew, was so kind, friendly, and helpful. Dolphins frolicked around us while we watched the sunset. We were there in March, so the bioluminescence was present but not super strong. Andrew worked very hard to show us the best experience available at that time of year. This was definitely my favorite activity of our whole trip!

Awesome Bioluminescence Tour - Andrew was a great guide. He explained exactly what we were going to do and where we were going. He knew right where the bioluminescence was going to be and took us there! We loved this experience and would definitely recommend it to anyone wanting a bioluminescence tour.
