Great trip with Kaitlin and “Wet Rabbit” - Drive to the top end of the car park - going up past the archway for the main pedestrian archway entrance. Toilet, Park kiosk and meeting point for all canoe/kayak groups are all there by the drop off point for the canoe companies who bring their canoes in daily 👍. Can be a little confusing - but actually quite simple 👍

Best kayaking experience I've ever had - My husband and I had an amazing tour with Wet Rabbit Kayaks. Our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable and it was so cool to get to see all kinds of wildlife that she pointed out. I definitely would have missed the alligators and gar fish if not for her. She also helped us take a photo and gave us fun facts and stories about Silver Springs. Would highly recommend anyone to sign up for a tour! Don't hesitate, just sign up! They even provided a dry bag and towel for use during the trip.

First Time Kayaking 🛶 - My friend and I had a wonderful time kayaking. Being that this was my first time, the instructors including my friend really helped to guide me to know how to kayak properly. Whenever I visit Florida again I would definitely come back and use this company again.

Good experience - Nice tour. Saw several gators, lots of birds and turtles and one manatee. Tour guides were great. Not sure I would rent a glass bottom kayak again. Sun was in and out. When the sun was out we could see through the bottom, but not when sun was behind the clouds.

Fabulous tour - The guides were wonderful sharing their knowledge of the springs, actively looking for the wildlife to show us, taking photos they shared with us. Great experience.

So fun, so many animals - Price was okay. Paying parking and then a “launching fee” was a little extra. Our tour guide Illisa was the best. We saw so many animals including manatee, alligators, fish, turtles and birds.

Highly Recommend Wet Rabbits Kayaks - Wet Rabbits Kayaks is the best! So knowledgable, friendly and professional. We saw manatees, monkeys, crocs, birds (with babies!), turtles, fish and all the other wildlife they hoped we would. Excellent day on the river!
