    Such a great experience at Silver Springs Park. First time kayaking with my toddler on board. The staff here is amazing. From check in, to getting your gear and send off, the experience was great. They are willing to answer any questions. The spring itself was amazing! Clear waters. We saw a couple gators and that was definitely frightening but they did not bother. Fun times. Great experience!

    Wonderful experience. The guide was friendly and very informative as we paddled on the river. We learned a lot about the local vegetation and wildlife. The guide knew where to go to see the wildlife. We were able to see monkeys, manatees, alligators, along with numerous birds. I would highly recommend this group for your tour.

    Absolutely phenomenal place to visit. We enjoyed seeing monkeys, manatees, many varieties of exotic birds, crocodiles etc. Warm on the water so be sure to bring plenty of liquid. We had a large group (40+) called to make reservations and were told it wasn't necessary. We definitely should have!! They ran out of the boats preferred by our group and the wait time was crazy long. Make sure you reserve if you've got a decent sized group!!

    We had an amazing time with our 2hr clear kayak tour. Our tourguide, Isaac, does a really good job pointing out wildlife and explaining about them. He’s very knowledgeable and great at taking pictures. Would definitely recommend people to check it out
