The kayaking was awesome and so was the tour guide. Thousands of bats were flying all around our kayaks. Thank you for a great night!

The guides were well organized and prompt. They answered all questions and provided clear instructions. I was especially impressed with their knowledge and how easily they communicated it. It wasn't scripted. If you are in the area, please try this out.

We had a great time. The staff is incredible. We had trouble kayaking and the staff was kind enough to tow us so we didn’t miss anything. The only suggestion is to make the eastern standard start time bolder

Definitely a bucket list item. Kayaking in low light is relaxing on return paddle to dock. Thanks also to our guides Brandon and Luke.
