Sarasota heldere kajaktocht
Beschrijving
Laten we op avontuur gaan in een 100% heldere kajak! Onze ervaren gidsen zijn naturalisten + nemen je mee op een kajak ecotour als geen ander! Peddel door de betoverde mangrovebossen van Jim Neville Marine Preserve aan de zuidkant van Siesta Key, voordat je het witte zand van Midnight Pass verkent! Wees op de uitkijk als we peddelen langs mangroven voor dolfijnen, zeekoeien + ander zeeleven! We besteden 20-30 minuten aan het verkennen van de oevers van dit afgelegen strandparadijs! Laat je gids je helpen bij het zoeken naar fossiele haaientanden + schelpen of neem een duik in de aquamarijne wateren van de Golf van Mexico! We kajakken dan terug naar ons startpunt maar vergeet niet naar beneden te kijken voor heremietkreeften, kroonschelpen, wulken, kleine haaien + roggen die je misschien door de kajak heen ziet! Deze tour vereist wel een gemiddeld lichamelijk niveau aangezien we 2,5 uur in de zon op avontuur gaan!

I’ve never kayaked before. Our guide was very helpful and knowledgeable about the area and attractions.
This kayaking tour was so good! The about of information we learned from our tour guide Cheyann E was amazing. She had so much knowledge and passion for nature. My daughter and I had the best time paddling through the mangroves and stopping at midnight pass which has the best water. To top it all off we saw dolphins on our paddle back. Amazing day
Thank you so much for this incredible review! We’re so glad you and your daughter had such an amazing day on the water—paddling through the mangroves and stopping at Midnight Pass really is something special. Cheyann will be so happy to hear your kind words—her passion and knowledge truly make the experience unforgettable. And seeing dolphins on the way back is the perfect way to end the trip! We truly appreciate you joining us and hope to see you both back out on the water again soon!
Awesome experience. Danny was amazing. My friend was a little leery on going out in the kayaks. Danny made her feel safe and reassured her that the tour was going to be just fine. He even decided to paddle with her to ensure that she felt safe and comfortable. Danny was very knowledgeable. You can tell he really loves his job and enjoys what he was doing. He went out of his way to make this experience a remembered memory for all Thanks Danny. Tiffany B. and Jammie T.

We truly appreciate you joining us and hope to see you back out on the water again soon for another adventure!
We had the most incredible experience with Get Up And Go Kayaking in Sarasota, truly some of the best tour guides we’ve ever had. I learned more about mangroves than I thought possible, and they made everything so interesting and engaging. They brought along a small clear container to gently scoop up critters so we could see it up close before letting it go and were amazing at pointing out all the wildlife and telling us about them. The water was truly stunning, crystal clear and unlike anything I knew existed in Florida. The clear kayaks made it even more special. One of the highlights was stopping at a small island where they helped us hunt for shark teeth. We came home with many! What really stood out was how engaged our kiddos were the entire time. The guides were super patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely fun to talk to. You could tell they love what they do, and it made all the difference. I would do this every day if I could. :) Highly, highly recommend!
Thank you so much for this incredible review! We’re absolutely thrilled to hear this was one of the best tour experiences you’ve had—that truly means the world to our team. It’s wonderful to know how much you enjoyed learning about the mangroves and getting those up-close, hands-on moments with local marine life while still respecting and releasing everything safely. The clear water and kayaks really do make for a special experience, and we’re so glad you got to enjoy a stop for shark tooth hunting as well! What means even more to us is hearing how engaged your kiddos were—that’s exactly the kind of fun, educational experience we strive to create for guests of all ages. Thank you again for your kind words and recommendation—we’d love to have you back out on the water anytime!
Actually, we never went on our kayak adventure because the guide was injured during the earlier kayaking excursion earlier the same day as our tour was to take place. Kudos to the organization for sending a quick text and calling my phone to notify us about the very unfortunate incident. I sincerely hope that the guide is recovering well from whatever shoulder injury she sustained. However, the fact that this company had no other guides available to cover the tours scheduled later that day was really disappointing. Ofc, this is not a BIG deal. It's just a blip on the radar. But if you are able to book a company that has contingency plans should something like this happen, then do so. Perspective is important. But planning is too. :)
Thank you for your thoughtful review and for your kind words about our guide. We truly appreciate your understanding and your well wishes for her recovery — that meant a lot to our team. At Get Up and Go Kayaking Sarasota we are a small, family-run business, not a large corporation with many on-call guides. Our guides are highly trained, and safety is our absolute top priority — both for our guests and for our team. When our guide was injured earlier that day, we made the difficult but responsible decision to cancel the remaining tours rather than rush in someone unfamiliar with that specific route or compromise the experience in any way. We completely understand the disappointment of a canceled adventure. That’s why we reached out immediately and offered you the opportunity to rebook for the very next day — the soonest we had another certified guide available — or to receive a full refund, which you accepted. While larger companies may have more staff on standby, what we offer as a small local business is personalized service, passionate guides, and a true love for sharing Sarasota’s waterways with our guests. Occasionally, that also means we face real-life challenges in real time — and we always do our best to handle them transparently and responsibly. We hope you’ll consider joining us on the water in the future so we can provide the five-star experience we’re known for :)

We did a kayak tour of a little Sarasota Bay mid October. Cheyenne was our guide. She was super passionate and knowledgeable about the ecosystem and the history and wildlife in little Sarasota Bay and Midnight Pass. We got to see a ton of birds, one dolphin from a distance. Would’ve loved to have seen more wildlife, but that really is luck of the draw. We did find some really cool shells and shark teeth at the little beach that we kayak too. It was moderately physically challenging the day we were there with a little bit of wind current but it was definitely doable.
