A marvelous experience kind of great value .physically easy for the entire family. A lovely experience

John was an amazing and personable guide! We got to see all the classic Florida wildlife (gators, ibises, heron, anhinga, turtles, and even an otter)! This activity was fun for the family and was kayak-beginner friendly. Would recommend doing a morning tour since it was cool and not so crowded I highly recommend this tour. my family enjoyed. We had no prior kayak experience and found the trip quite physically Easy and very low risk of getting wet or falling overboard. I give john my five star highest review as a guide. He was outstanding
