Key West Mangrove Kayak Eco Tour

We had a wonderful time on this excursion! We learned so many fun facts about the local mangroves, sea grass, and the wildlife that inhabit them. The mangroves are beautiful and certainly a unique ecosystem to explore. Nothing else like this in the US! Our guide, Cece, was knowledgeable and experienced, and made our time on the water fun. The staff on site were all very friendly and helpful. One thing to make sure of: If you’re booking through any travel service, not directly through the company’s website, make sure you receive a confirmation email with the excursion details directly from the company itself. For whatever reason, that did not get sent to us ahead of time. This led us to be technically half an hour late to our excursion, because there were no details stating an earlier arrival time except in that email alone. I received a call as we were on our way asking where we were. The business personnel acted confused and frustrated as to why we were arriving late, but realized in the end that the email with the details had not reached me (inadvertently). Once they realized that, the tone changed and they commented that this happens fairly often. Something to do with the booking programs not talking to each other. To the business owner: I would recommend updating your listings on travel excursion booking sites to state the earlier arrival time by a half hour. There’s no harm in doing so, and it would surely save a lot of people the trouble if this issue persists.

Leesa and I loved the early 2-hour Lazy Dog kayak tour! Racheal G. was extremely knowledgeable, and her enthusiasm for the mangroves and ecosystem made the experience even better. We saw three manatees, nurse sharks, iguanas, and even got an up-close look at a starfish she netted for us. She also pointed out the home where Jimmy Buffett raised his daughter and took great photos and videos to share afterward. Highly recommend this outing while in beautiful Key West!

Great experience, exceptional guide Tall Rachel. Do it again, in a heart beat.

The trip went thru the mangroves and across the channel. The guide "short Melissa" did an outstanding job. Was extremely knowledgeable, interactive, and humorous. Despite the wildlife not cooperating, she did everything she could to highlight the natural surroundings of the keys. Would definitely do again.

Rachel is knowledgeable and very engaging! Had a great time learning about the mangrove inhabits and the ecology of the Keys!

Heather was wonderful! So knowledgeable about the area and eco system. She was also sure to include everyone and took time to make all of us feel included. She answered all our questions with enthusiasm! It was a beautiful trip.

Did this kayak tour with my son-in-law and enjoyed it very much. I am not a practiced kayaker by any means, but it was an easy, interesting trip with lots of plant and animal life. Highly recommended.

Super fun experience, really interactive and knowledgable guide, highly recommend.

We had a lovely mangrove tour and enjoyed the knowledge that our guide shared with us. It was a very hot day but we were well shaded under the canopy of the mangroves. Worth the visit!

Nice tour through amazing mangroves. Our guide was great! All skill levels can do it! Highly recommend. Nice to get away from downtown
