Our kayak was ready early and Justin was super helpful and friendly! We would definitely use Kayaking Florida again!

Fun trip on the water. Saw lots of birds, fish, turtles, alligators, monkeys, and a manatee. Ashley and the team made this an amazing and stress free experience. Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for an informative and fun kayak trip.

To all those interested, there is always a thought in my head, "Should I book a tour, should I figure it out on my own?" This is one I highly recommend taking a tour for. Why? Well, we would have missed 90% of the wildlife without our guide. We had Ashley; she was excellent, great explanations and great detail. We saw everything we wanted and more. My only critique is that, at times, it was hard to hear her. We were a small group, which was excellent, but I can imagine a larger group, and if we weren't next to her, we wouldn't hear her. I think this was fixed when we realized we needed to be closer because even a kayak-boat length away, it was hard to hear. Overall, I highly recommend booking a tour. We even had some rain, and it was still excellent.

We had an amazing time in our canoes, got to see manatees and a gator on our trip and the swimming was great. Our guide Justin was a top bloke and credit to the company, his knowledge and passion for his job and the wildlife is 100%I will definitely use them again if in Florida again.

We had the best time with Chris! His knowledge of the animals and area was amazing. Chris answered our questions and shared stories with us regarding the animals and area. We saw an alligator, monkeys, birds, turtles, and manatees. The trip was peaceful and beautiful! I would recommend a tour any day! Thank you Chris for making our tour so wonderful!

Loved the kayaking tour! Ashley was so awesome! We got to see at least 10 manatee and some alligators along with other animals! Definitely a great experience!

The experience was extremely easy to book online, great prices, and the communication was amazing from our guide, Justin. Unfortunately the experience has to be cancelled due to extreme weather that day, but we didn't mind. We received a full refund since it was cancelled due to weather too. Our guide kept up informed the night before and communicated again the morning of. Justin went above and beyond our expectations. We will definitely rebook once the weather improves. Thank you, Justin!

Great first experience with silver springs. Thank you Chris for making the launch and return super easy. We had a good time kayaking and got to see birds, fish, turtles, crocodiles, monkeys… even an otter.I can’t recall the name of the woman who helped with scheduling, but she rules too. She helped us reschedule for a different weekend when we had a change in plans.

2026-09-30T18:25:34.044Z

Definitely recommend this place really nice and pretty scenic views

2026-09-28T13:38:59.737Z

Chris helped us get our kayaks to the water and met us to gather them up. He was so much help and we all had a blast. It was a beautiful kayak trip!

2026-09-26T17:22:03.573Z

Ashley was an outstanding guide. Loved it was a small group. Highly recommend

2026-09-24T03:49:00.764Z

We had an excellent kayaking experience with Chris. He guided us through several coves until we finally spotted a manatee and took many underwater photos for us. We also saw alligators ranging from babies to fully grown adults, monkeys, turtles, and many different birds. The entire experience was 2 hours. Wonderful memories were made! Thank you, Chris.

2026-09-22T13:56:57.139Z

We've been several times and always have a great time. Chris and Justin are great! We saw tons of wildlife- monkeys, alligators, manatees and so much more.

2026-09-21T16:27:41.738Z

Booked for a silver springs float. What a great experience with kayaking Florida. Great communication both after booking and day of trip. Chris got us on the water with tips that made the float incredible. Would book again.

2026-09-20T17:39:59.221Z

We had a great time. Ashley was a great host. I 10/10 recommend this tour. Even if you’re a beginner.

Chris was an amazing tour guide. He was knowledgeable, helpful and made the trip worth it. We got to see alligators, manatees, birds and tons of fish. My husband and I agree that this excursion made our whole trip.

2026-09-07T01:44:52.396Z

Had the best experience today with Ashley! We booked our experience through TripAdvisor but if you have a choice to pick i definitely recommend to do it with Ashley. She was extremely knowledgeable about the springs and animals. You can tell she truly loved what she’s doing. If you’re thinking about kayaking this is the place to be. We drove a little to get here but it was definitely worth the drive and experience. I highly recommend!

2026-08-29T22:22:29.935Z

We had a great time out on the water, the pick up and drop off process was so simple and the instructions shared before hand made everything a breeze ! Can’t wait to come back!

2026-08-21T15:51:17.217Z

We did a kayaking tour. I had to reschedule last minute and Kayaking Florida was very accommodating. Ashley was our tour guide, she was very knowledgeable about the area, the wildlife and history of the springs. She also took lots of photos for us, so we didn’t have to worry about taking any. This was our first time doing anything like this and we were blown away. We will definitely be returning the next time we are in Florida.

2026-08-20T13:24:03.623Z

Our tour guide Ashley was amazing! My son and I had so much fun. She was very knowledgeable of the area and where to find certain animals. We were able to see a manatee, turtles, gators, monkeys, an otter, different types of fish, and different types of birds. She was a lot of fun!

2026-08-19T00:02:35.503Z

Very good guide, he knew where to look for the animals. We saw alligators, all kind of birds, monkeys and even a manatee. Can highly recommend this tour with our guide Chris!

2026-08-18T12:18:32.672Z

What an amazing experience it was! Excellent guide who educated along the way. I highly recommend them.

2026-08-16T18:34:59.164Z

We had a great time. My partner is super inexperienced with Florida outdoors and kayaking. Our guide, Justin, was so patient, understanding and compromising. He was able to adjust the tour for our comfort. We will be booking again soon!

2026-08-11T15:17:00.782Z

Had a fantastic time with Chris as our guide. Very knowledgeable of Silver Springs and history. Saw several alligators, 5 manatees, numerous turtles and birds, a monkey and an otter. Thank you again Chris.

2026-08-02T22:33:24.703Z

I wish I could give more than 5 stars. It was the most incredible experience. Not only was it relaxing and stunning, we saw so many gators, amazing birds, fish, turtles, a river otter, and manatees! Chris was our guide and he was so knowledgeable and made sure we got the best experience possible!!! Will definitely be back! Thank you, Chris!!! You helped us created unforgettable memories.

2026-07-26T16:09:02.101Z

Had a great time yesterday at Silver Springs. Dylan was friendly and helpful with getting us on the water and being there when we were done to take the kayak so we didn’t have to do anything. Rental was easy and half the price with the discount they are currently running vs the other rental options. Would definitely rent here again.

2026-06-05T23:41:09.197Z

Chris was an awesome guide! My friend and I are on a girls' trip, and he made our kayak trip at Rainbow Springs perfect! We didn’t have to lift a finger he pointed out all sorts of wildlife and cool swimming spots and gave us time to swim and take in our surroundings. He was very mindful on the water and made the two of us feel perfectly safe!
