Adrena was our guide and she was lovely! Very knowledgeable, friendly and patient (we were late, sorry Adrena!). She showed us so much more wildlife than expected and explained it all in detail. She was also very respectful of the wildlife and their ecosystem. Thanks Adrena and Calypso!

Great kayaking experience. Informative, lots of nature, and no experience was necessary. Tour guide Mike was awesome! God bless him we had a lot of fun!

We saw diverse wild life and beautiful scenery. Jason was well-informed and personable, and very good with my three teen-aged grandchildren. It was a unique experience that I highly recommend. We hope to try the bioluminescence tour next year.

Manats, stingrays and many other natural wonders. Our guide was great. It was a wonderful two hours spent on the water.We will definitely come back.

My cousins and I had a great experience with Calypso Kayaking! Jason was able to accommodate us next day, and was super knowledgeable on our never ending questions. We saw a manatee mom and pup pop up, various birds, and jumping fish, but our favorite was holding and examining the jellyfish! Prices were very reasonable, perfect for a family outing! I highly recommend!

Perfect kayaking trip! Adrenal was excellent!! We loved watching the manatees - so many of them. Spied a gator in the distance and a dolphin. Many fish, horse shoe crabs and so much more. Well worth it. Family ages 7-62. Great time!

I never got to do this activity. I couldn’t make it and when I called to try to reschedule they didn’t even pretend to be sympathetic. Really poor customer service. Since then I’ve done this tour twice with another local company which was cheaper and offers a way better customer service.

Erin was great and showed us the local animal life. No manatees today but we did see a gator and a dolphin. We had only made the reservation a few hours in advance, so we're grateful they were able to accommodate us.

Adrina was a fantastic guide today as we saw manatees, dolphins, and more! An extremely knowledgeable guide with a fun personality! Loved being able to stop at an island and jump into the water on a warm sunshiney day. We saw many sea birds and even some crabs and a jellyfish. Super relaxing day we can’t wait to experience again!

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, experienced, and patient with us. First time kayakers, it was a great experience. We saw dolphins, but experienced manatees up close and personal.
