Pedal Kayaks Made This Trip a Joy
Jennifer_B, Apr 2024
This was an extremely well run eco tour of the mangroves. We all enjoyed learning about the marine wildlife and meandering through the mangroves from the very knowledgeable tour guide. The pedal kayaks are the best way to experience a part of Florida you can't get to any other way! Very easy to maneuver and we never got tired on our 2-hour trip.

Naples Eco Kayak Experience
Poranee_P, Mar 2024
The kayak has the foot padels which made it more fun and relaxing. The best part was when Ramel our tour guide went in the water with his mask and fetch the upside down jelly fish for us to see. That was very informative tour about some other sea ceeatures also.

Our amazing kayaking adventure!
Megan_T, Mar 2024
We thoroughly enjoyed our kayaking adventure through Marco Eco Tours that we booked on Viator. Sertac was a wonderful guide - he was kind, friendly and easy to hear throughout our experience. His knowledge and enthusiasm for the history, flora and fauna of the estuary made the tour quite enjoyable and interesting. The pedal kayaks were a game changer - we were able to go further and faster than we anticipated without getting fatigued. We were even able to keep up with a dolphin and her calf with exhausting ourselves. Another bonus were the pictures Sertac took on our tour - we were able to download the pictures afterward for free! What an amazing perk! We had an absolutely wonderful experience and would highly recommend!

Fun, relaxing adventure...
Young_P, Mar 2024
Juan was a great tour guide, right from the start. Checked us in, gave us a quick safety lesson and off we went! The option to either paddle or pedal with our feet was a nice one to have. I" suggest to pedal in wide open spaces for a relaxing kayak. Paddle with oars for the tight spaces. We didn't see too much wildlife (no dolphins or manatees), but that was out of the tour guide's control. One slight, slight drawback was there were pics taken of the group, but we didn't seem to get in any (so we don't have any from the tour guide). Other than that, highly recommend for a nice, relaxing tour of the mangroves.
Response from Host, Mar 2024

We are glad to hear that Juan provided you with a great experience from the beginning of your tour, and we appreciate your understanding regarding the photo situation.

We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the option to paddle or pedal and that you found it a nice addition to your tour experience.

Enjoyed our Hobie Kayak Tour
Cathy_G, Feb 2024
We rode on Hobie peddle kayaks which are rare to find on local tours. They had great seats with lots of back support and easier to maneuver in windy waters. Host guide was knowledgeable and enjoyable to listen to. We saw a dolphin, an eagle and other birds. Only wish we saw a manatee, but was told February is often too early in the year to spot them.
Mangrove Adventure
Rhonda_J, Feb 2024
We had so much fun using the peddle kayaks through the mangroves. Favorite parts of the experience were seeing the large horse conch giving birth to her babies, and learning about the eco system. Great adventure, highly recommended!!
