It was my very first time kayaking and I was nervous. I was also running late and they let me move to a later time slot without giving it a second thought.Justin was a great kayaking guide. He told us about the wildlife and got to look at to different groups of manatees. He made sure we were all comfortable and also let me go exploring different areas.One of the coolest things he did was take pictures of us individually in our kayaks and also share photos of Silver Springs that he has personally took. None of that was expected and it was just icing on such a great day.I have a kayaking bug, and I have to say it’s largely due to Justin and the experience that Florida Kayaking provided me. I would recommend them over the others. Thank you again Justin and team. I will be back until I get my own kayak!

This was absolutely the best way to experience the beauty of Silver Springs! Kayaking on the Silver River was made all the more enjoyable by our knowledgeable, friendly tour guide, Justin, who we highly recommend! His insights about the river and ability to find the wildlife is something that would be missed if you merely rented a kayak and went out on your own. As a result we not only found, but got up close and personal, with the manatees, alligators, turtles, monkeys, other aquatic and bird life of the area, as well as shipwrecks and the filming locations of well-known motion pictures or television shows. Highly recommend!

This was such an amazing experience. You are so immersed into nature. Chris was our guide last week and he was such a pleasure - very helpful and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend glass boat kayaking with him. He has so many facts and makes the experience that much more fun!

Huge shout-out to Ashley, our kayaking guide at Silver Springs!She was incredibly knowledgeable, calm, and engaging from start to finish. Ashley didn’t just lead us down the river — she taught us about the springs, the wildlife, and the ecosystem in a way that made everything come alive.Even when we didn’t see manatees, the experience was unforgettable thanks to her insight and enthusiasm. We saw alligators, learned how the wildlife coexists, and felt completely safe the entire time.If you’re considering a kayak tour here, ask for Ashley. She’s the real deal and made the trip truly special.
