Family Time spent well all together. - Family of Four of various ages (all adults) everyone of us thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of the day. Check in was so easy & the staff were very welcoming and friendly. Outdoor picnic area to eat lunch before our afternoon excursion. Our guide was very knowledgeable and informative. We visited during the last few days in October & only managed to see 1 manatee which was disappointing but the guide did her upmost to make sure we did see at least one which we appreciated. Great swim opportunity in the springs & plenty of time to enjoy the springs too. Thanks guys excellent customer service.

Recommended to all! - Friendly staff and well run business. Enjoyed the scenery and wild life along the way in kayak, which was in good condition for a comfortable paddling trip.

First time visiting a spring - Our first time to a spring. We were so happy with our guide Dani. She knew a lot about the springs and manatees. Paddles is so organized and professional. All in all our trip was perfect. Highly recommend Paddles and if you’re lucky you’ll get Dani to guide you.

91 and 72 - Swimming in the cool 72 degree springs at three sisters was refreshing and well worth the trip. Especially when outside temperatures hovered in the upper 80s and lower 90s the day of the trip. Kayak and other equipment was in excellent shape and the guide was very helpful.

Water experience - Wonderful experience and beautiful sight so see. The tour guide was wonderful with leading and educating us about the Springs. Water was cold and we didn’t see any manatees but over all it was a great experience scuba diving.

Amazing Experience & Wonderful Tour Guide! - Wonderful experience! We had a guided tour with Danny from Paddles Outdoor to visit Three Sisters Spring. The nature was phenomenal and the duration of the tour was perfect. Better than that, Danny was very friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive, especially with our kiddos, their questions and curiosities. We extremely enjoyed our experience with Paddles Outdoor not only due to the amazing nature and water, but also due to how great of a tour guide we had!!!

Amazing real Florida experience - Our guide was really friendly and informative. We saw manatees multiple times even though our trip was out of season. FYI you will do a good bit of swimming and the spring water is cold!

Most Memorable Springs trip - We had the best time ever. Drive 16 hours missed out tour and the ladies (Jessica)at the office were amazingly accommodating they let us opt for a kayak without the guided tour. They got us in and Koda and Josh were super helpful with instructions and getting us off the launch. Even waited in the rain as a thunderstorm was raining over us when we paddled back. Sorry we missed the tour but either way the springs were incredibly refreshing the water was crystal clear and everyone we passed was so friendly and helpful we didn’t get lost on our own we will definitely be back again for the tour next time. Not difficult to manuver and we had two 50 yr olds and 3 Twentysomethings but even little kids had no problem paddling.
