Operator response

Thank you SOOOOO much for this absolutely glowing review — those exclamation points have us all doing happy dances over here!!!!!!!! 😄🦦 We’re beyond thrilled that you loved the springs and the whole experience that much — there’s just something magical about that crystal-clear water, isn’t there? And Jax? She’s grinning ear-to-ear right now (and probably blushing too!). She pours her entire heart into every tour, so hearing that she made your day “amazing” is the very best kind of thank-you we could ever get. We can’t wait to welcome you back — the river is already saving your favorite kayak and Jax has first dibs on being your guide again!

Away from crowds and close to nature!

John was very knowledgeable and polite! The sunset views were amazing and overall a great memory was created! We will recommend the tour to everybody. Totally worth it! To my surprise, the little back support in the canoe was quite comfortable. Very relaxing trip, away from crowds and intense heat.

Operator response

Thank you SO much for this absolutely glowing review — you’ve got us all smiling huge over here! 🌅❤️ John is going to be thrilled when he sees this — he loves sharing those quiet, golden-hour moments on the water, and hearing that he helped create a lasting memory (plus made the sunset tour feel relaxing and crowd-free) is the very best feedback we could ask for! We’re especially happy you found the back supports comfy — a lot of folks are surprised how much difference those little seats make on a longer paddle, and it sounds like they did the trick for you! Thank you again for choosing our sunset tour, for the wonderful recommendation, and for being such fantastic guests. We’d love nothing more than to have you back next time you’re in Crystal River — the sunsets (and John) are already saving you a spot on the water! So much love from all of us, — The whole Paddles Outdoor Rentals crew 🦦🌅🏺

Will be back!

It was a great time! We saw lots of sea creatures! Kyle With A Smile was the best guide ever! Thank you so much for the amazing kayak experience! Can’t wait to come back!

Operator response

Thank you SO MUCH for this absolutely glowing review — we’re all doing happy dances over here!! 😄🦦 “Kyle With A Smile was the best guide ever!” just made his entire year — he’s officially beaming brighter than the Florida sun right now! He loves turning every tour into a sea-creature treasure hunt, and hearing that you spotted tons of them (and left calling it an “amazing kayak experience”) is the ultimate win for all of us. We’re beyond thrilled you had such a great time and that you’re already planning your return trip — the river just texted us and said it can’t wait either! Kyle’s already saving you the front-row kayaks and promising even more wildlife surprises next time. Thank you again for the love, for the contagious excitement, and for being the best guests ever. See you very soon on the water!! — The whole Paddles Outdoor Rentals crew 💙🏼‍♀️🌿

Absolutely amazing!

We had an amazing sunset tour with guide Kyle with a smile. We were the only kayak on the tour which made the experience even better! 10/10 recommend.

Operator response

Thank you SO MUCH for this incredible review — you just made Kyle’s entire month!! 🌅❤️ A private sunset tour with Kyle With A Smile is basically the golden ticket — quiet water, that gorgeous Florida sky exploding with color, and the whole river to yourselves… it doesn’t get any better! We’re beyond thrilled you had such an amazing evening and that it felt like a perfect 10/10. Thank you again

Beautiful Tour

Great tour. Cypress was very knowledgeable and delightful. She was extremely accommodating and worked hard to ensure all of the kayakers were having a good tour.

Operator response

Thank you SO much for this wonderful review — Cypris is absolutely beaming right now!! 😄🦦 She pours her heart into every tour, and hearing that her knowledge, enthusiasm, and extra effort made your day so special is the very best kind of feedback we could ever get. She’s going to be floating around the dock with the biggest smile all week! We’re beyond grateful you chose us and took the time to share the love. We’d love nothing more than to welcome you back the next time you’re in Crystal River — Cypris already has your kayak reserved and promised even more wildlife surprises for round two! See you on the water again soon! 💙🌿 — The whole Paddles Outdoor Rentals crew

Best way to spend a birthday

Kyle with a smile He can’t help it, it’s just his style. As encouraging as he is helpful, He always goes the extra mile. I’m trying to paddle, cos it’s been a while, Helps steer the kayak so we stay single file. Three sisters lagoon was an amazing place, Just wish there’d been more time to chill in this space. He’s so knowledgeable on all the different plants, He knows his pelicans from his cormorants. For twas my birthday in Crystal River An amazing experience he did deliver. Seeing the sun set turning day into night, Then floating with manatees by LED light. An unforgettable experience, as a birthday should be, I’m still a big kid at heart despite being (gulp) 43. Time to head home now, but still wearing my smile. Keep doing what you do, thanks again Kyle.
