Small Group Rock Springs Run Eco Kayak Adventure

Our guide Jimmy, was amazing in knowledge and very friendly. My grandkids had a great time swimming and exploring. Highly recommend.

Fun trip. Great choice would recommend

The trip was awesome, great family experience and Jimi was very knowledgeable and a great guide. Highly recommend for a family trip.

This was my first time kayaking in Florida. I’m so happy I went with Venture Outdoors. Our guide, Jimi, was very cool and knowledgeable. He gave us some great kayak tips!

I cannot think of enough positive adjectives to use to describe how amazing our guide Sue was on our adventure. From the very beginning, she so incredibly friendly, and energetic. You can tell she loves being a guide. Throughout the adventure, she was incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and vegetation. She was amazingly patient, as we have only gone kayaking a couple of other times and she offered great instruction and challenges in the best possible ways. She made it all so much FUN, she is so personable. We would recommend her to anyone who would like to have a great adventure and we will request her again if we are back in the area. Sue was the BEST!!

We had a great day with an experienced and knowledgeable guide - Jimi . The nature there is fantastic and the water is christal clear. We have seen Aligators, different birds, turtles. Would book it again.

We decided last minute to do this tour…so glad we did. What an awesome experience, would definitely do again and again. Jimi was our guide and he was wonderful and so knowledgeable about everything nature. Also great at spotting all the wildlife, alligators, all kinds of birds, turtles and plant life. I highly recommend the 3 hour tour, the extra time is great. My husband and I were able to share a kayak so he could row while I took pictures.

Sue was an amazing guide, she is very kind and informative. We saw lots of amazing wildlife including Manatees and an American Bald eagle! We felt very safe and Sue really went out of her way to ensure that we had the best possible experience. Sue took some amazing photos of us and the memories we made will last a lifetime. I highly recommend this tour.

We paddled the 3-hour eco tour with our guide Sue and a small group of 8 new friends. The creek is mostly shallow and crystal clear. Weather was perfect for a quick swim too. Rock Springs Run is a true gem of nature with its beauty and serenity. Sue makes this kayak trip inclusive for all levels of experience, providing ongoing instruction and encouragement to newbies while allowing the more experienced to lead ahead. She engaged in enthusiastic conversations with participants and provided ecological information throughout the trip. I highly recommend this kayak tour with Sue.

Sue was awesome!! Excellent tour!!

Wonderfull time. Seen couple alligators, birds and turtles. Jimi was great. Highly recommend this trip. Parking was challenging though.

Our guide Sue has not given us only a wonderful kayaking tour on the Emerald River, she gave us a deep inside of the geology, the vegetation, and of the animals, even a historical background of this part of Florida. A must see and when you come, come in the morning. Great job Sue!

We had a great trip out! Jimi had lots of knowledge of the environment as we kayaked through. He was great with our daughter and told her lots of facts and made time for her to swim and jump in.

We had an absolutely wonderful time kayaking today, and it truly was one of the best experiences of my life. Our guide, Jimi, was exceptional—so friendly and knowledgeable, sharing fascinating insights about nature. We felt completely safe and comfortable throughout the experience. Traveling as a group of eight with kids can be challenging, but everything was so well organized, and the staff was incredibly supportive and attentive. Thank you so much for making this adventure so memorable! Aleksandra

Our guide Jimmy was e very good guide. He showed us nice places and made us have a lot of fun by jumping and floating in the spring.

The highlight of our holiday was our kayak down Emerald Cut with Astrid. She was so knowledgeable and interesting to chat with about the eco system, wildlife etc. We spotted lots of alligators, turtles, fish and birdlife with the help of her expert eye. She was brilliant at including everyone and gave great advice on kayaking technique. Can’t recommend the tour highly enough and if we’re lucky enough to come back it’ll be at the top of our list of things to do. Thanks Astrid !

An excellent three hours in a kayak with our great guide Astrid. She was full of local knowledge of the area. And great patience whilst we got used to the kayak. Such an enjoyable morning in nature.

I had Jimi as my tour guide. It was an absolutely amazing journey! Jimi is patient, helpful, and knowledgeable. He told us many fun facts and things regarding wild life here along the journey. We saw alligators, birds, snakes, turtles etc in the journey. If u don't have a lot paddling experience before, don't worry. Jimi is there to help, and he will teach u the skills! I would def go for kayak here again in the future!

Our guide Jimi was so knowledgeable, We were able to ask a billion questions and get answers. We love to learn about all nature related things in the areas we visit. We went both ways on the run and saw a variety of fish, birds, gators, a racoon and even an otter! Highly recommend trying!

Jimi was a great host and so knowledgeable! We saw many alligators and other wild life, all of which Jimi pointed out and educated us on. The swimming experience was refreshing and beautiful! We decided to do this instead of a theme park and I am so glad we did .

Astrid was awesome. She was so knowledgeable about the area, very passionate about her job. Loves everything about the tour, water was provided which was a lifesaver since we forgot somehow. Definitely would recommend this for anyone new to the area, as the wildlife cut can get a little confusing.

We are family of 5 with 3 small kids. Kings landing has only 1:1 ratio for their kayak so it wouldnt be possible for us to do the tour. But we found Astrid, Astrid was perfect tour guide! She was very patient with us and very considerate. We were hesitant to book a guided tour because we want to take our time given with 3 little boys we can have some delays. But we were happy we did the tour with her. She also taught us the right and easy technique to paddle. I would definitely recommend her!!!

A completely amazing experience very knowledgable guide. Very courteous a once and a life time experience seriously this is a real deal tour. Gators variety of birds including multiple bald eagles. I can recommend Astrid as an expert and a tour

I had an exceptional moment cut off from the world, fully immersed in an exceptional setting. Thanks to Jimi for sharing his passion and his knowledge. His availability and his love for nature made this experience exceptional. I highly recommend it.

A must for all nature and Florida lovers! Due to the recommendation we put the tour in the morning and were lucky and could see many different animals. Alligators, turtles, birds and snakes. Our tour guide Astrid explained a lot and told us what was great. It's a whole other world away from the hustle and bustle of Orlando. 1000% a recommendation!
