Silver Springs Kayak Tour - Best Price, Best Gear, Free Photos

What a great guide. This is our second booking with Wet Rabbit. We specifically came back because of our guide.

The guide was very nice and active, explained about everything on the springs. She is very friendly and responsible. Highly recommended.

Wonderful Adventure at Silvers Springs. Our guide was so knowledgeable about the area and was able to share her knowledge with us. She loves the park and wildlife and made our kayaking experience exceptional.

Amazing experience.. clear water .. lot of animals and nice guided tour . Alligators, turtles , manatees

Had a wonderful experience kayaking today. We were amazed to see so many animals while travelling down the river alligators, birds, monkeys, turtles and our favourite a few manatees. Fantastic guide with vast knowledge of the animals and the area who is obviously very passionate about them. Even our 3 teenagers were enthralled and said they would love to do this trip again. Would recommend this to anyone, we have previously been on other kayaking trips in Florida and this was by far the best

We had a great time kayaking Silver Springs. We were treated to a rare glimpse of a mother and baby manatee, otters playing and catching fish for their lunch in the burrow. Snake birds swimming and sunning high above in the tree tops. Blue heron flying by in a hurry to their next stop. Alligators swimming and sunning and tending to their egg nests.

It was a great experience, great tour, great time. One of the highlights of our trip to Florida for sure. Would definitely do it again.

Alyssa was awesome, so knowledgeable and helpful. She has named all the gators! She provided us with beautiful videos of the tour and this is something we will come back to do for sure!

I found Wet Rabbit at the last minute while looking for something fun to do with my 6-year-old son. Viator made it seem like it was adults only, but I took a leap of faith, and I'm so glad I did—it must have been a misprint. We had such an incredible experience that we came back the very next day, and we're already planning another trip, even though we live in Fort Lauderdale! On our first tour, we saw a manatee along with so much other wildlife. On our second tour, we were lucky enough to spot an otter. Every trip felt unique and unforgettable. Alyssa, the owner, is incredibly knowledgeable and made each tour so personal and special. She also captured amazing photos and videos throughout the experience, so we could simply enjoy being out on the water. I'm honestly surprised she doesn't have even more reviews. After watching some of the other tours on the river, I truly feel this experience was much more personal, engaging, and memorable. If you're visiting Silver Springs, I can't recommend Wet Rabbit enough. It's an amazing adventure for both kids and adults, and one we'll definitely be doing again!

He was my first time doing kayak , was so fun cool, river so good, the fish, the alligator, and the boat next to the kayak was amazing

Our guide Lola gave us an amazing experience, super friendly, bubbly and knowledgeable. Allowed us to go at our pace, just perfect. Nature, crystal clear water and animal watching breathtaking. Hot sun + cold water = magic. Def worth the 2 hour drive up.

10/10 Recommend! Alyssa and Harper were both very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. They were able to accommodate my son, who has mobility issues. We saw a manatee and an otter and a Big Blue Heron, and of course lots of birds and turtles and gators. Harper shared his pictures and videos afterwards.

Highly recommend! The kayaks were clean and our tour guide was awesome!! Very knowledgeable about the wildlife that we saw and the history of the springs. We had a great time!

I've lived in Florida for ten years and never taken a kayak down the springs. I highly recommend doing this. Going with Wet Rabbit Tours was the best way to experience the springs. The group was small, and it made the trip that much more enjoyable.

Such a fun tour! Our guide was so friendly and amazing! The river was beautiful and calm, suitable for beginners and we had a great time.

Lola was a great tour guide! Very cool. Fun experience. I would def recommend it. Glass bottom boats were very cool.

This was a great experience, the tour guide Harper was an amazing an very informative. Definitely will plan this trip again in near future

Sean and Lola were experts and entertained us throughout the entire tour! We learned about the many different historical events and animals of Silver Springs!

Beautiful experience! Our tour guides Shawn and Lola were fun, knowledgeable, cracked jokes and just laid back! So fun! No guarantee that you will see a manatee and unfortunately we didn’t but we understand that’s not anyone’s fault. Hoping to be back and see some next time!

This experience was just so amazing!!! The highlight of our trip . The guides were awesome. It’s a must do , look forward to doing this again . Thank you so much !

Great adventure and we learned a lot from our guide . Beautiful water and so much wildlife - one of our best days !

We had been wanting to get to SilVer Springs for some time. Then rather late I tried to book the glass bottom boats and my date was full. I saw that Wet Rabbits kayaks still had spots and decided to book a tandem kayak. What a great decision. There was immediate helpful answers to my questions. The boats were clean and ready when we arrived. The river and creature sightings did not disappoint. Monkeys, river otters, turtles, birds, and alligators along with a guide leading the way. We loved it and will probably return with grandchildren when they come visit. It was a very positive experience for us.

Easy to find and park. Our tour guide Shaun was very friendly and full of interesting facts about the wildlife. We saw a manatee lots of birds and alligators plus turtles

Lots of wildlife. Calm very clear water. Guides were friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Would do again in future.

Such an informative and fun activity. It was the highlight of our trip. The tour guides were the best! Taking pictures of our group and the wildlife for us. Do not hesitate to book this adventure.

This is the second time I’ve done a tour with Ilissa and I had so much fun again! She is so knowledgeable and keeps the tours small so it feels personal. I had a blast both times and will always choose her tours in the future. So worth the money!! A really fun experience.

Alyssa is very knowledgeable about all the animals you see along the way and their names. She also tells you the very extensive history of the spring/river and all the movies that were filmed there. Highly recommend her tour!

Excellent guide, excellent experience. Kayaks in great shape, we saw plenty of wildlife, birds, alligators, and manatees

My husband and I just took the Silver Springs Glass Bottom Kayak Tour with Wet Rabbit Kayaks. I knew I had picked the right company when the night before our tour the owner, Illissa texted me directly, because there was an issue with how I booked the tour(regarding weight limits and number of kayaks). With her help, it was easily resolved. Illissa was also our guide and she is so knowledgeable about EVERYTHING to do with the tour and Silver Springs Park! It was so interesting hearing all about the manatees and other animals we encountered. It was definitely the high point of our entire trip! If you are considering doing a kayak tour in Silver Springs, definitely go with Wet Rabbit. You will not be disappointed!

Ilissa was amazing! Very knowledgeable and friendly. You can tell that she is very passionate about caring for the Manatees. Also, she identified birds, alligators, and fish species to us, many of which they had names for :-)

Great guides and an excellent experience! We saw an abundance of wildlife. A perfect place to see manatee and alligators.

Our guide, Ilissa was very knowledgeable, experienced and helpful. We had a great experience and would do it again.

Our guide was fantastic! Ilissa was very knowledgeable and personable. You will learn about the animals, spring formation, history and even some movie facts about the springs. There were plenty of animals to view. We would do this tour again!

We were running late after a debacle with our rental car. Our guide was so understanding and kind. Not something you find often. She was so knowledgeable and shared out of this world videos and pictures with us. We wouldn’t book with anyone else. Wet Rabbits is the very best of the bunch.

Absolutely wonderful experience, would definitely recommend to anyone! Great guides and beautiful wildlife!

Bring a cell phone with a good camera. The cell phone is placed on the glass bottom with the camera looking down through the glass. The tour guide shared videos from her waterproof cell phone. Use sunscreen.

What a delightful tour guide, Sherri! The group waited for me even though I was a little late. She was so thoughtful of everyone, kind and knowledgeable about the park and wildlife in it. I highly recommend booking with them!!! 10/10

Our main reason for booking the tour was to see manatees that frequent the Florida springs this time of year. Normally we would rent our kayaks and explore on our own but I figured a tour would increase our chances of seeing them. Illisa did not disappoint. She ensured we were able to see and appreciate so much more of the beautiful Silver River. She is so knowledgeable of the park, its wildlife and history. The glass bottom kayaks are fun but we didn't need them to see the manatees, turtles, Gators, and fish that are visible in the crystal clear water. Upon booking, we received a helpful email for what to do upon arrival. Once we moved to the boat launch it was smooth and easy getting in. We learned the river gets really crowded during the holidays (even when it's cold) but Illisa helped us navigate. We had a great time and, yes, saw so many magnificent manatees. I would definitely recommend Wet Rabbit for your Florida adventure.

We had an unforgettable time on the Silver Springs Glass Bottom Kayak Tour. Our guide was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about nature. You could feel how much she loved the environment, and she passed that passion on to all of us throughout the tour. She was extremely friendly and made every moment enjoyable. Her explanations were clear, engaging, and she took the time to answer all of our questions with patience and enthusiasm. We learned so much while having a great time. A wonderful experience from start to finish — highly recommended!

Ilissa really did a great job explaining the wildlife surrounding Silver Springs. She even knew every name of the alligators and had lots and lots of interesting stories about them to tell. We got really close to the animals and Ilissa took great pictures/videos. Please please add a non-US online way to tip you! (PayPal etc.)

Beautiful atmosphere, friendly knowledgeable tour guide. I would highly recommend. The glass bottom kayaks were great!

Ilissa was a great guide, would certainly come back and do this again! Super knowledgeable and patient with everyone in the group.

This was a wonderful experience. Ilissa was friendly and fun to be with. She knew where all of the wildlife was, and we saw it all that day - alligators, manatees, fish, birds and turtles. She showed us sunken boats and told stories of the history and the movies that were made at Silver Springs. This was the best day of our trip.

Our tour guide, Alyssa with Wet Rabbit Kayaks, was absolutely phenomenal. We got to check off bucket list wildlife, and learn and experience the river safely. She made our trip really worthwhile.

What a fantastic experience. A must do if travelling g to Florida and Silver Springs. Tour guide really informative. My whole family loved this. It is a gem and something very different from the parks. Get up close to manatees and other wild life. Highly recommended

Wet Rabbit company did a great job with the kayak tour at Silver Springs. It was calm and relaxing. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the area and did a fantastic job taking pictures of the group to record our experience for us.

Excellent tour with Kaitlin! My first time kayaking. Would love to do it again now that I'm no longer afraid! Learned a lot about the area and saw lots of wildlife -- manatees, alligators, turtles galore, birds and even monkeys. Don't miss it!

I like the place, the view, the service and the security. Very satisfying. By doing sports, our bodies are healthy, our bodies are strong, I met many new friends and relations there, making me feel at home and happy to chat with them.

Relaxing, enjoyable adventure gotta get props for the towel. That’s just something you just don’t pack or think about. Just a really good time out on the water and our guide was fantastic.
