Kayaking at Silver Springs - Great experience! Will definitely recommend to anyone! Seen lots of wild live, our guide Dee was very passionate and knowledgeable and were not afraid of alligators, made us very comfortable around them and she also took lots of pictures for us and air-dropped them after the tour.

One-of-a-Kind Kayaking Experience – 10/10! - This was hands down one of the best outdoor adventures I’ve had! We rented the see-through kayaks and had an amazing time exploring the beautiful waters. Our guide, Pipi, was fantastic—she was full of knowledge, super friendly, and showed us some really cool hidden spots along the way. Being able to see all the wildlife below us was such a unique experience. We spotted fish, plants, and even a few gators soaking up the sun (from a safe distance, of course!). The trail itself was easy to navigate, peaceful, and perfect for a relaxing paddle. Overall, it was a fun, educational, and unforgettable day. I can’t wait to come back and do it again—absolutely a 10/10!

10/10 RECOMMEND :) - Spencer was an amazing tour guide. He was so informative and knowledgeable about the area and all the species we came across. We got to see so many animals thanks to him knowing the place like the back of his hand! Very personable and friendly. We had a blast. Thanks so much!

The ONLY kayak tour you should take in the springs! - Wow, what an amazing tour. We saw gators, several species of birds and flora, and even THREE manatees - very out of character for the season. Brad is the man. He is so incredibly knowledgeable about the springs, to the point he can even identify the manatees by name. His love and passion for the animals and the springs is so apparent in the way he talks and leads the tour. He takes fantastic pics as well. IF YOU DO ANY KAYAK TOUR IN THE SPRINGS, DO THIS ONE!

We had the best kayaking tour with our guide Pipi! - Our guide Pipi was the best! She had a keen eye for spotting wildlife and giving us up close nature experiences. You could tell she really cares about the environment and wildlife. She went above and beyond to give us a fun and educational experience. Plus she took pictures and videos for us so we could just enjoy our awe-inspiring surroundings and all the wildlife we encountered (all kinds of birds, turtles, gators, monkeys, river otter, fish). Amazing!
