Fun without any worries

5.00Having a tour guide is always more expensive than venturing out alone but we love the knowledge sharing a tour guide provides. Well worth the extra money. Our time slot was overbooked but the tour guide made it a great time anyway. Highly recommended.
Book this tour!

5.00My husband and I had a terrific time exploring the mangroves with our guide, Zach. He was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about the wildlife we saw. We couldn’t have gotten out of the maze of mangroves without him! We saw barracudas, Cassiopeia jellyfish, snappers, and different birds.
Great morning on the water

5.00We had a great time on this outing. Our guide, Mark. Was great. He found out enough about us before the tour so he tailored the info based on our past experiences. The tour was not rushed. He gave us options along the way and was always ready to answer any questions we had.
Tour vs rentals — glad we did the tour!

4.00Stephen was our guide and provided great info on the mangroves and wildlife. Very helpful and informative. Only disappointment was that the woman at the store/office told us not to bring phones/cameras and we wish we had. Stephen did take our picture but taking our own pics would have been easy as the waters were very calm. We had considered just renting kayaks at the park on our own but we are glad we did the tour. The paths are tricky to navigate and solo kayakers were seeking Stephen’s guidance on which way to go. Great trip!

4.00Overall I enjoyed my experience on this kayak tour. Steven and Memo were our guides, they both were pretty chill & provided us with knowledge and facts regarding the ecosystem. The tour was listed as 3 hours, however we left late & ended early this is why I deducted a Star.
Exceeded Expectations

5.00Bob is great - native knowledge with a chill vibe. Bring a mask and snorkel to swim/float in the tunnel section with current. To see fish and colorful sponges.
Easy and fun kayaking in the Keys

4.00Easy kayaking through mangrove tunnels of John Pennekamp park with a knowledgeable and very nice guide. Some experience is definitely required for a smooth trip even though the description says none is required. Bring extra water with you and sunscreen! We met at the Florida Outfitters to register then drove to the park and launch point. Our tour started late, and even though the guide said we would kayak later to make up the time, we ended on time which was disappointing. Regardless, my family (including the teenager) had a fun time. We are not super experienced kayakers, so having a guide to navigate the mangroves was perfect for us.

4.00Kayaking among the meandering mangroves provides some shade on a warm day. We saw fish but not much else. You not need to rent for 1 hour to do a loop and could have saved the money we spent on a second hour. No manatees sited in the park
