My family of four just completed an afternoon clear water kayaking trip with Ashley. It was amazing! The water was... clear and beautiful. Both my wife and I could handle the small current that we paddled against (with our kids) until we got to turn around and cruise in during the sweet hours and quietly feel the beauty of Florida's natural springs. I highly recommend this tour as a break from busy Disney and as a glimpse of God's playground. Thank you Ashley and Get Up and Go Kayaking.read more

It was amazing! The trip was full of adventure, new experiences, and positive energy. We want to thank our guide Megan... for an amazing nature trip. Megan was simply delightful, supportive and helpful to our group as we moved along the river. It was a never ending pleasure. We highly recommend Megan, she is the best. You will have an amazing experience, lots of fun and will definitely want to come back for more.Also, don't forget your swimsuit, it is such a pleasure to swim in this purest, natural water, you will experience a unique feeling of dissolving into nature and eternity. Also, do not forget dry clothes to change and a towel.Have funread more

So I was sooooo pumped to go on an adventure with my family but once our Kayak pushed into the water I realized that I... may have done the wrong thing my 2 yr old was in the Kayak with us and she was so excited to put her hands in the water and splash tipping the kayak to either side moving like all 2 yr olds do with me tensing up with every move. Luckily our tour guide Sam looked me in the eyes and said it will be okay its a beautiful day today look around you as we turned the corner nature just opened up. He was very knowledgeable about Silver Springs told stories of his adventures on the Springs and made me and my husband feel really comfortable so quickly! Overall even though I was scared to tip over with my rambunctious 2 yr old we had a blast learning so many new things and enjoying our time on the Springs. Don’t hesitate book your adventure now and ASK for SAM!!read more

My husband and I booked the clear kayak daytime experience for our honeymoon, and it was better than either of us... expected. The scenery is STUNNING.We had Jackson as our tour guide, and he was friendly, willing to answer any questions, and super knowledgeable of the lakes, canals, and surrounding area.Both of us have been kayaking before, but it’s been years, so we weren’t sure how we’d like it — especially in a two-seater, but it was easy enough to fall into a rhythm, it was just the right amount of workout, and we had a great time.My biggest piece of advice would be to bring a picnic blanket or towel that you’re willing to get wet, and fold it up as extra cushion on the seat, because your rear will end up hurting along the way. 😅Otherwise: 10/10 recommend this experience!read more

We had a great experience with get up and go kayaking. We did the bioluminescence tour and I very much enjoyed myself.... From them providing us bug spray, to staying behind to make us feel comfortable, (not leaving us. I observed this with others as well), was excellent customer service. I would recommend and actually go back.I don’t know if this will help anyone but, the more into the water we were, and especially on the paddle back, the bioluminescence was at an all time high. Unless you have a high tech camera, you will not have much luck capturing it on your camera phone (I have an iPhone 12 for reference). I was able to get a small glimpse on my phone.read more

My dad & I enjoyed our first ever kayak experience with Keith as our trusty guide at the Winter Park location. I wanted... my dad to do something out of the ordinary before he leaves for Hong Kong in two days…& this fit the bill! We went in the morning before it got hot, and we loved seeing the little canals, big houses, and random wildlife. Even as complete beginners, my dad and I were able to learn easily and enjoy the ride. Definitely recommend for anyone who wants a unique, memorable time!

My son and took the 2 hour night trip, July 4th and had an AMAZING time. The Kayaks are completely clear so you can see... all sorts of marine life, especially at night, because each Kayak had different colored LED lights on the bottom. We paddled to Shell Key to wander around and explore while we waited for the sun to set. That's when it got even cooler because we were able to see Gulfport, SPB and Treasure Islands firework displays on the way back to the dock.HUGE huge shout out to our guide Charlie!! This kid worked so hard to make it a fun, safe outing. He was helpful and shared all sorts of information on the indigenous wildlife, and the islands we went through.We were his THIRD group of the day and I'm sure he would rather have been out with his friends, celebrating the 4th. If he did, he sure didn't show it. Just as nice as could be, a complete professional, but so fun and kind. I highly recommend this organization. I will for sure be back when I have family in town and will request Charlie to be our guide!read more

Also really appreciated the bottled water she provided. Overall 100% recommend doing this if you’re vacationing with family or even if it’s just a couple. Also recommend sharing a boat with your partner it makes it a lot easier on your arms, unless of course you’re experienced at kayaking. Even if you don’t get Raven as your guide, we met another one (didn’t catch his name) he was so friendly & had a great vibe!!read more

We LOVED our bioluminescent kayak tour in June 2021! Liz and Scott were awesome guides who taught us a lot about the... ecosystem and, of course, bioluminescence. What an amazing phenomenon! It was so cool to interact with the bioluminescence! We’ll definitely be back again - can’t wait to see how it changes throughout the season. The clear kayaks made a huge difference - it was like watching the galaxy pass under your boat! We loved kayaking right next to the dolphins, too! The small group size was nice. Amazing experience, highly recommended!!read more

We went on the Bioluminescence tour last night at 11pm. It was amazing! The bioluminescence was absolutely gorgeous. ... Our guide was very knowledgeable. We also were fortunate enough to see 3-4 dolphins on our kayak trip as well as an alligator on the shore line (saw the yellow glow of his eyes when our guide shined her light on the shore line). Another note—our family has been kayaking before so we felt comfortable, but there was another family of 4 in our group that had never been kayaking before and our guide gave them great instructions and made sure they were comfortable throughout the trip. Kuddos to that family for learning to kayak in the pitch black dark!read more

The kayaking experience at Silver Springs is an amazing experience, and the tour guide Joshua is phenomenal. However... we did not have a positive experience with the company. Then initial time our GPS gave us was wrong so we where running late to make our 11:00 tour time. When Joshua called to check with us we were still 23 minutes away and traffic was heavy. He had other parties waiting so we understood he couldn't wait for us. He offered to work us into his 1:30 tour. We were very appreciative, he just asked us to call the office to let them know. We did and there was no problem. Approximately an hour later we received a call from the company that the guide didn't know the number in our party (4), and he could only accommodate 2 of us. I asked for a refund for the other two and was told no, we had missed our tour time. While waiting for our kids to go on the tour without us, and losing $134.00, the last two guests arrived. I overheard Joshua ask her if she needed to sign a waiver since she was the owner. The owner! We got bumped by the owner and her companion. And all paying guests rode two to a boat, they each went single. Had they riden together there would have been room for us. So my husband and spent another $34.00 (much better deal) from the state park and paddled right along with them. And I didn't feel bad at all because I had paid for a tour. The owner was taking video and pictures, for promotion I presume. I hope our big yellow kayak messed up every shot!!read more

We had a trip planned with Get up and go Kayaking, and due to an accident on the way down to our trip it pushed back... our arrival time to 3:13. They only wait 15 mins and we watched them take off without us and then refused to reschedule our trip. We understand their policy but our delay was due to car accident and even though we called them and let them know we would arrive at this exact arrival time, and sent a requested screen shot from our gps. They still would not work with us so our family could enjoy this trip. Not family friendly and your just a number to them. I would highly recommend not using this company. Water was also very murky and unlike the photos. Just overall an awful experience.read more

I had a great time at Rock Springs, our tour guide (I cant remember his name!) was super cool and laid back, we had a... small group on our tour so it was nice to be able to interact with our guide along the way. It was a little crowded, which I expected because it was a Saturday, but I had a great time! Definitely a workout on the way out but paddling back was a breeze!read more

We had such an amazing experience kayaking at shell key preserve. We had Charlie as our guide. He was excellent and... very knowledgeable. He was also a very fun guy to explore with. Charlie took us to different islands and tunnels. We saw dolphins, birds, sharks, and jelly fish. My wife and I highly recommend doing this if you ever get the chance. It exceeded our expectations. Charlie also made the experience that much better.read more

We had a perfect 21st anniversary with Get Up And Go Kayaking! We had Charlie for our morning tour and he was... knowledgeable on the area, plants and animals. We also went on the sunset/glow tour with Jenna and Hannah. They were so much fun and also knowledgeable about the animals and environment. I highly recommend either one of the tours, although if you go on the first tour you can pick up some awesome shells on the beach.read more

Todd was.....PHENOMENAL!! We did a 1:30pm tour out of Vero and it was a BLAST! One of my nephews is on the spectrum and... the other doesn’t quite have his confidence built up and just gets a little nervous and scared sometimes, however, Todd was patient and kind and took time to listen to them and make the tour fun for both the kids and the adults. When we first got in the boats we were welcomed by a whole gang of manatees which was extra exciting for the kids. Todd was very knowledgeable and absolutely amazing! Highly recommend these tours and if you can request Todd!read more

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Last night I did the 8:45 bioluminescent tour at Merritt island and, honestly, I will be coming back... once a year to do it! It was like we were paddling through avatar it was so amazing! The guides, liz and Angela were amazing, knowledgeable and friendly! 100/10 I’m coming back! Also, I thought their advertising pictures were enhanced... they were not! It is as bright as their pictures make it out to be... one word of caution: if u are planning to take pictures with an iPhone, I wouldn’t bother (as u will see by my pictures) u really need a DSLR to get great pictures bc u need to be able to control the f stop and iso. I have included my pictures but again: they do this paddle little justice... also, if u go in August be sure to look up bc there is the annual meteor shower... we saw 3!read more

She taught us about the mangroves, and how important... they’re to our environment, about the Cormorant which followed us around and caught a bunch of fish along the way, Ospreys, marine life and etc. Above all, Jenna made sure we were safe and monitored a nearby storm very closely. We had an amazing adventure and will fo back for more! Thanks Jenna and Get Up And Go Kayaking!read more

Our group was all doubles I was a single and would say the oldest person of the group and she did not make me feel odd man out even when I fell behind. She hooked me on and with her help I was able to keep up and enjoy myself. Would recommend and do again with a partner. Lol.read more

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! We had the most wonderful experience this morning kayaking down the intracoastal. Chris, our tour... guide, was so helpful in pointing out the many many sea critters and wildlife we came across. He was so cheerful and you could just tell he loved what he was doing and so happy to share all his knowledge with us. Our kids (9,11) had smiles on their face the entire time! We recently moved down to Jupiter from Chicago and this was such a special way to start making amazing memories. Thank you Chris! And thank you Get Up And Go Kayaking!!!!!!!read more
