    This kayaking operation consistently delivers memorable wildlife encounters with guides who clearly know their stuff. Reviewers rave about spotting manatees, alligators, dolphins, and otters throughout their tours. The guides—particularly Chantz, Adrian, Crosby, Dmitry, and Yas—get mentioned by name repeatedly, which tells you something about the personal touch here. They balance being informative with knowing when to let you simply soak in the peaceful surroundings. What stands out is how comfortable the guides make everyone feel, both in terms of safety and just having a good time. They share local stories, answer endless questions, and throw in surprises like hidden swimming spots and underwater tunnels to explore. The clear kayaks add a cool visual element to the experience. The booking process is straightforward, and the overall vibe is relaxed and friendly rather than overly scripted. People leave saying they'll absolutely return and recommend it to friends, which pretty much says it all.

    I had the best time on „The Chaz“ Tour led by Crosby today! First of all the river is absolutely stunning and the tour turned out to be more than just paddeling on a river. Crosby showed us many different Spots, including a tunnel under water that we were able to dive through. We also got to see 3 Manatees even though they are usually not around at this time of the year anymore. Crosby made sure that everyone felt safe (us as well as the Manatees), he was joking around with us, making the Tour even more fun, but also gave us the opportunity to just enjoy the peaceful environment. He definitely knows his way around and was able to answer every single question we had. I would definitely recommend the Tour with Crosby to everyone ☺️
