My husband and I went on a kayaking tour with Christian, we were the only ones that booked so it was like a private tour. Christian was great and knew where to go to see the manatees. We went to a cove where we saw lots of them and they came right up to our kayaks. We also saw a dolphin a few times as it swam up and down the river. The area is beautiful and it was so nice to do something different to the orlando parks. Make sure you use bug spray, I did and was fine but my husband didn't and got bit. Overall a great tour and I would definitely recommend it.
What an awesome experience! Would recommend to anyone that loves the outdoors. Christine was our tour guide and was so patient with us as we had never been on a kayaks before and had lots of questions! Be ready to get up close with the manatees as they come right up to your kayaks!! My sister and I went on the evening tour which was beautiful to watch the sunset over the Indian River. We forgot to pack our bug spray, so make sure you pack that as it is mosquito heaven on the island. If you even stay late enough (past dark) you will be able to experience the bioluminescence on the river!
We came down from East Tennessee and Ram made our trip as easy as it could have been. The guiding was great and fun. We saw dolphins and manatees as well as a large assortment of birds. I would honestly have rather booked two tours with BK after having somewhat of a disappointing experience at Disney. For two adults in their early 30s with out kids sea kayaking was way better than any park experience could have been. 10/10 would book again and would repeat the same trip all over. Thanks guys!!

Near sunset, we kayaked up the river to the Manatee area, fairly easy paddle. After watching the awesome manatees rolling in the water, we kayaked back to the river's mouth. Our guide, Christian, did an awesome job giving advice to novice paddlers, and directions of where to go. I would highly recommend this tour!!!!

Ram was an excellent tour guide. He is very friendly, patient, knowledgeable, and fun. My husband and I were the only ones that had booked for that time slot, so we had a private tour at no extra cost. We saw many manatees while kayaking some of which would swim up close to our kayaks. We were also lucky enough to have a few dolphins swim near by. Ram offered to take a picture of the two of us and also held our kayaks as we got out to cool off and enjoy the water at the end of tour. This was a very unique experience. I highly recommend!
