Amazing family experience - Wow what a once in a lifetime experience! My family (five of us kids 17, 16 and 9) had so much fun on this activity together. Great workout and we all learned so much! Saw a manatee, for sure do the three hours to see all of the jellyfish and to experience going through the tunnels! Host was awesome can’t say enough. I actually was talking about it later at the resort and another family booked for the following day!! This is a must do!!!

Kayaks, fun, land many do not see - A great way to get right into the feel of the Keys. Excellent guide, knowledgeable of the land and flora. A fun way to learn and get some fun exercise, see the huge marina and waterway , and just be away from the Hussle for awhile back in the mangroves. Thank you Jade you made our day special.

Amazing Adventure! - We had such an amazing adventure today paddling through the Keys mangroves with our wonderful guide, Jade. He gave us great insight into the ecosystem and nature around us. We saw dolphin, tree crabs, jellyfish, egrets, ibis, fish and lots of other wildlife. Jade pointed out many things we would have missed on our own. He was very knowledgeable, kind and patient and he's obviously done a lot of research on the local environment. It was just the right amount of time and distance. And the price was very reasonable compared to other choices. Thanks, Jade, two thumbs up and 5 stars for this great adventure!

Peaceful private wildlife mangrove tour - Safe, fun, educational, private and peaceful. Serene paddle through mangroves to open lagoon. Saw many fish, crabs, birds and a manatee! Option to jump in the swimming hole! Jade was very knowledgeable and sparked lots of good conversation about what we were seeing and the environment we were kayaking in. He is excited about what he is doing and we loved the small group experience as we could see and hear everything. This is a great excursion for anyone who would like to be on the water and close to nature. Excellent for adults and families alike. Skip the crowds and have a personal experience with Jade.
