Excellent trip, excellent value - As a newcomer to the Jacksonville I was delighted with this trip. We saw a Bobcat on a tree that was over the river! I am told this is rare. And of course my first alligator sighting was memorable. The river was delightful and the host was also delightful

Adult Alligator Spotted on Lofton Creek - An easy paddle through a beautiful nature habitat. We did the self guided tour and saw 6 turtles, jumping fish and a lovely variety of water plants blooming. The most exciting and memorable experience was spotting a 6+ foot long alligator stretched out on a fallen tree log before it slowly slide in the water. Pretty cool. The alligator was 100 yards past the point where the fallen tree is over the creek. We received excellent customer service from their base location and at the Melton Nelson Boat Ramp - Thank you!

Loveed our 2 hour tour - I booked with Real Florida Adventure with a friend who was visiting Florida for the first time and we had a great experience. I am a local and was even told about a river clean-up that's happening in a month that I hope to join! Great, friendly, helpful staff and great kayaks. Highly recommend

Fun and memorable experience - Our family had a wonderful and memorable experience. We were a little nervous going without a guide since it was only my second and my family’s first experience, but there was nothing to worry about. My kids and wife got the hang of it within minutes and the 2 hrs flew by. Highly recommend!

Amelia Trip - Great self-guided little kayak trip. Lady who provide kayaks and water bottles was very pleasant to deal with. Sadly for me and my wife, we only spotted a small turtle and a woodpecker. Trip was enjoyable. We would definitely do it again and recommend it.
