Awesome, magical! - This experience was amazing. Ryan our guide was very knowledgeable and helped guide us through the entire journey. He was engaging and made it fun and educational. It was absolutely the most beautiful excursion I've ever done. Worth every penny and more. A must do if you're in the area. Thoroughly enjoyed it and my family and I will definitely be back again.

Fascinating and Leisurely - Josh was a terrific guide with a great deal of local and natural knowledge of the area. We saw alligators, turtles, herons, ospreys and their nest, and finally a non-venomous snake (which Josh picked up and displayed for us - also told us about it). Josh exhibited great knowledge of flora, fauna and animal life in the area. Fascinating. Also, it was a leisurely paddle through sun and shade. Beautiful area.

Shingle Creek paddling experience - A great paddle on a calm section of the river. Our guide Josh was excellent. He is very knowledgeable and a great host. He identified numerous species of trees and other foliage unique to the area and we saw various birds, turtles and an alligator sleeping on the shore. Don't be nervous about alligators as they are not interested in the kayakers. At the end of the tour Josh showed us his pet water snake Magazine. That was one of the many highlights of this tour. Highly recommend if you are in Orlando.

We saw Edith the 7ft.... - We saw Edith the 7ft. alligator! Lots of baby gators, turtles, and birds. Our guide was very knowledgeable and cool, kept everyone safe and had lots of great kayaking tips.

Love it! - Our tour guide was great, very knowledgeable and kept us entertained. We saw many birds, baby alligators, turtles and a snake! Weather was great, company was even better!

Great experience - Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the area since he grew up there. Knew about plants, animals and the habitats of how they coexist. The kayaks we used were in good condition. I was rather impressed by the whole process from online tickets to the final discussion after tour was complete.

Skip the Airboat and Do This! - We did the 2 hour cypress tree tour in single kayaks. Josh the guide was great, very informative and upbeat. We saw lots of plants, some turtles, an alligator, an osprey and some other birds. As a not fit person, this was just right amount of activity level for me. 10/10 would recommend, best part of our trip!

Guided Nature Eco-Tour - Our guided tour was informative, relaxing and such a pleasure. From the moment we arrived the staff were so welcoming and knowledgeable. A beautiful experience and very family friendly.

Beyond Expectations - Excellent experience! The cypress forest is very beautiful and relaxing. Ryan was so knowledgeable about the animals, history, and ecology of the area. He’s a great guide and went over and beyond anything we expected.

So worth kayaking this creek with Josh's group! - I could have kayaked this lovely creek alone, but it was so much more enjoyable due to Josh's knowledge and enthusiasm! Our small group of 6 talked non stop about science, nature, travel and more. Could not believe how deep into nature I felt just a few steps from a very busy, built up part of Florida.
