Kayaking in the evergaldes was an unforgettable experience for us. It was a great way to explore the everglades. Our guide, Guy was friendly, informative and funny. The time allocated was perfect, just about 3 hours, so it wasn't too taxing or tiring for those with no prior kayaking experience. Highly recommend this activity.

Our guide Guy was great. Very friendly, knowledgeable and fun to do the tour with. Overall I would have loved to see a little more wildlife but you also need a little bit of luck I presume.
