Amazing tour! - I’ve now been on two tours with Kayaking with Sassy for Silver Springs and Rainbow Springs, with Pipi as my guide both times. She is absolutely amazing and so knowledgeable about the history of the springs and local stories. She has an eye for spotting birds, turtles, and manatees. Pipi had everything set up and ready to go for me. I appreciated that Pipi took pictures for me and sent them after our tour, since my phone was deep in my dry bag. She kept an eye on the weather reports to keep us safe as we were out on a summer day with typical Florida afternoon storms. You can really see the love and care Kayaking with Sassy has for each employee, the environment, the springs, and the guests. I am so glad I found them and can’t wait for more excursions!

Thank you, Pipi!!! - A huge shout out to Pipi for allowing our daughter to ride on her paddle board with her. The kid wasn’t feeling the clear boat for some reason but Pipe immediately flexed with this and had our daughter ride along with her. After that, it was all smiles and chitchat. Can’t thank her enough for this! She saved the day!!!! 🙏

Above our expectations! - We had no idea what we were in for and this was above and beyond what we could have hoped! We had Brad as our tour guide and he knew so much about the area and was so informative. We didn’t realize it wasn’t manatee season but saw plenty of other wildlife. We would highly recommend this company!

You won't regret doing this tour - Our guide, "Tarzan" was so nice! We got to see a lot of birds, turtles and alligators. We learned about the springs and all the cool stuff under the water. Tarzan was wonderful! Definitely go! Bring sunscreen!

Wonderful trip with Sassys kayaking - I had a great time with Sassy's silver spring kayaking!! Our guide Pipi (Maria) is very nice and professional. She guided us to see different animals, plants, and the ship under river, and told us the knowledge and information about those, helping us not miss any interesting scenes and fun. She also took pictures of us and sent to us, so sweet! I really appreciate her guide and this wonderful trip!

Amazing Guided Tour - It was a great experience. We went during early May and saw lots of animals along the river. Pipi was an awesome tour guide and super knowledgeable about all of the animals that we saw that day. She’s also an amazing photographer. Definitely recommend you to go during morning (the first spot of the day) to get the most of this experience.

Educational - Brad was great. He had a lot of knowledge about the river and it's history. We saw a lot of alligators and endangered birds. We were also able to see adult birds tending their young. Very cool. The trip took about 2 hours. It may not seem lo g enough but it was almost the perfect amount of time to be out there. If I ever end up down this way again ill be back for another kayaking trip. Well done.

Staff is nice, management not - When we book the rental through their website, it doesn't write clearly about the numbers you choose is for person or boat! When we arrive the park, DD(one of the staff) mentions this number issue out, she does call her manager for this confusing. Ends up the manager knows it but no refundable!
