Lovely tour with turtle and iguana sightings

5.00I was a little hesitant to book this trip because it seemed expensive, but I’m glad I did as it was a highlight of my vacation. I loved seeing the turtles and iguanas. The clear blue water is beautiful. This is a relaxing tour. They tow you with a jet ski across to the islands, so you just paddle through the mangroves. The guides are helpful and friendly.
I think the other tours...

4.00I think the other tours tow you out, or most do anyway. It’s not that I mind the kayaking, that is what we signed up for, but this means we all had to kayak across a busy canal with large boats, jet skis, etc crossing us. Our tour guide was DJ, and he was knowledgeable and nice but dang, he paddled off without us and about 3 other kayaks. I thought the other tour guides were better about keeping a group together. Once they went into the mangrove without us and let another tour group get between us. We did see a few turtles, a shark, a jellyfish.
Iguana tour

2.00It is listed as three hours but it is barely 2 hours. You see a couple of Iguana. They are fairly small. After that we saw a few turtles and no sharks. The guide was not good in giving the tour wither. It is very expensive for the experience.
Relaxed pace and beautiful views!

5.00We had a fantastic time kayaking through the Mangroves!! Our tour guide, Joe, was fantastic, knowledgeable, and so incredibly patient! The pace was so relaxed, the views were incredible, and communication was as clear as the water ;) Would recommend this tour to anyone heading to Turks!

Clear Kayaks, Cute Turtles & Iguanas, & Good Vibes

5.00We did the 3hr Iguana and Turtle Tour as a group of 4 adults & had an amazing time. The small group made it feel personal and relaxed. Our guide was super friendly and full of great info. We we were pulled by boat in our kayaks to the iguana island, saw some iguanas hanging out, then swam in the most beautiful turquoise water. Kayaking through the mangroves was our favorite part; turtles were everywhere, swimming all around us. The clear bottom kayaks were such a cool touch & we even spotted a little yellow shark right underneath us. We also got to see a live conch & hear all about it. The whole tour flew by & we’d absolutely recommend it if you’re looking for a fun, unique adventure.
Great kayaking trip

5.00The tour was wonderful, we all had a great time paddling out to the mangroves and chasing turtles. The tour was exactly as described and our guide was very knowledgeable.
Spend money elsewhere

2.00Too much time pulled by a dingy and not enough time in the mangroves. Saw very little and kayaks were very uncomfortable. Educational discussion had no depth to it
Great for wildlife viewing

4.00Our tour was actually the 2-hour kayaking without the visit to the iguanas. We did think we were going to the island, so the booking process was a little bit confusing. We recommend using this company for a kayaking tour. The guides really made the trip an enjoyable adventure. We frequently had an up close view of sea turtles, sharks, barracudas, pike, herons, and more. A member of our family lives with a physical disability and the guides were exceptionally kind and helpful.
