We had an amazing time on our kayak guided river tour with Roger at Silver Springs! He was so knowledgeable about the history, wildlife, and natural beauty of the area, and made the whole experience fun and relaxing. We spotted turtles, birds, and even some alligators around. He always made sure we had the best view while also keeping us safe. His passion for nature really showed, and it made the tour feel special and personal. Also, we love the jokes and he is very well- versed with our culture haha. If you’re visiting Silver Springs, I highly recommend booking a trip with Roger, you won’t regret it!
