We didn’t get to go - TripAdvisor keeps wanting me to review this experience. Sadly, we did not get to go due to high winds. The company gets 5 stars for communication. They offered us to go the next night in a different location or a refund. We could not do it during the rest of our stay in the area. The refund was credited to my card the same day, no hassle. Hopefully next time we are there we can make it happen.

Fun Vacation Experience - We had a lot of fun! The original location we were supposed to kayak in apparently had heavy winds in that area so they brought us somewhere else. We kayaked through mangroves that smelled awful. A couple of us almost got stuck in bush. It wasn’t the most pleasant location to kayak but still enjoyed ourselves.

Wow! What a fantastic family adventure! Caught a crab!!! - Wow, wow, wow! A must do! Cat and Ricky were amazing! We caught a blue crab, saw a baby shark, and a needle fish jumped in the kayak with us! My mom almost flipped us, but it was super safe, and we didn't feel scared at all. We took the 9:30pm adventure, and boy, was it a blast. We even saw a baby corn snake as we were waiting to go out into the abyss. I would recommend wearing water proof shoes, bringing a flash light and maybe a towel to sit on. Wear clothes you don't mind getting wet and dirty. Great adventure for our family visiting from Oklahoma! P.s. Practice rowing a kayak because we had never been before, and it was not easy. It is 1.5 hours of rowing to the canal and back, and if it gets windy, it is not easy!!

Kayaking Fun - It’s an experience you have to try. You could see under the kayak for sea life. Saw a manatee. Kids would enjoy this as well. Some clear areas and some areas you couldn’t see anything under your kayak. But a nice experience overall.

Tour with Amy - Our guide Amy did a fantastic job telling us about the mangroves and the birds and the different species. We had a good experience traveling through the mangroves tunnels.

Amazing experience - We saw a couple of manatees in the canal and they hung around for quite a while with us, sniffing and swimming under our kayaks! We later saw some dolphins in the distance. Our guide, John, was amazing. Very funny and knowledgeable about the local wildlife and plants.

Viator is not refunding yet. Clear Kayak Tour people did everything they could to help me. - We couldn't make the tour, it was nobody's fault. For a last minute change, the tour people tried contacting me by phone and email but I didn't have a working phone at that moment. They were kind enough to accept to refund me and requested Viator, the payment company by Trip Advisor, to do so. A week later I haven't received a refund and is impossible to talk to Viator. If you are planning to take the tour contact the Clear Kayak Glass Bottom people directly and book directly, do not use TripAdvisor to book your tour. Maybe next year I can do that and enjoy what seems to be a fun activity.

They sold tickets while their busines is closed - We paid full amount for 2 tickets and drove all the way to the kayak meeting point only to find out that it was closed. Why would they allow us to buy tickets for that day if they knew their business is closed. We called the service number and they apologized for selling tickets while they were not operating any kayaks that day. Still waiting for refund. Not fair. Hope they refund full amount promptly.
