• You must have the ability to lift yourself up and off the ground as our launch is sloped.
• You must have the ability to sit in the same position for 2+ hours.

We encourage you to bring the following:

• Clothes that you don’t mind getting a little wet.
• Polarized sunglasses- A MUST FOR BEST MANATEE AND WILDLIFE VIEWING.
• Towel for after the trip.
• Reusable water bottle.
• Any extra gear you’d like. Remember- the less gear, the more visibility through the kayak.

• Every tour is given on one of our 100% clear kayaks or clear stand-up paddle boards!
• Our fleet is small (5-6 vessels) so expect an exclusive experience!
• Private tours are available – up to 10 people for $499.
• Our guides are always helpful, entertaining  and educational (and they appreciate tips).

• Yes, children 3+ are allowed on tours.
• Children 6 and under are required by law to wear a life jacket at all times while on the water.
• The ability of your child to sit in a kayak for the duration of the tour is completely up to the parent.
• We require children 30 pounds or under to bring their own life jacket as the size is very specific and safety is of utmost importance.

• Our tours are made for any skill level to participate, we will have basic tips/tricks to help you maneuver the waterways and paddling safety information. Tours will have participants of varying ability from beginner to this is not their first paddling trip! Some paddling may be considered intermediate due to conditions such as wind or tide but we try our best to paddle at a pace that is convenient for every paddler! We do require all guests to stay with the group. We also ask that all guests have upper body mobility and capacity to lift themselves out of the kayak from a seated position on the ground.

• Tips are greatly appreciated. We like to say, “If you enjoyed your ride, tip your guide!”
  Standard US gratuity is 20%! 

• YES! Our weight limit is no more than 250 pounds per person and no more than 425 pounds per 2 people that are in the same kayak.  All of our kayaks are double kayaks. Unfortunately our kayak manufacturer has given us this strict limit of 250 pounds per person and we cannot exceed this limit.

• Each of our kayaks are tandem (made for 2 paddlers). However, the seats are removable and if you have an odd number of paddlers in your party we are able to accommodate the kayak as a single. Please remember our weight limit policy, the same 250 pound PER person weight limit still applies even if taking a kayak out as a single.

We like to say it’s always a hope never a promise! This is a wildlife experience and we cannot guarantee that we will see wildlife on our tours- half the fun is learning how to spot the signs and clues that wildlife like manatees leave behind for us to find!

• Trips that are canceled by Get Up And Go Kayaking due to inclement weather, will be rescheduled or refunded.
• Reservations that are cancelled 48 hours or more before a scheduled trip will not be charged. Those that are cancelled or in need of rescheduling within the 48 hour window of departure time will be charged full price. No-show participants, and participants who do not show up at their scheduled departure time will be charged full price unless cancelled outside of 48 hours.
