Epic Paddle Adventures - Orlando, Florida

Travis W.

Little skeptical at first, but my fiancé heard a lot of great things about epic. As soon as we met Guy, I was sold. We waited for Rich and the other group to leave and honestly so glad we did. It was us and another group of two. Private tour was amazing. Guy was very informative, never rushed us, and made us feel right at home. He told a lot of jokes which really helped break the ice. Water was crystal clear, manatees were amazingly huge, and the weather was perfect. Guy really is one of the best tour guides we have ever had. Honestly he made the trip better. Give this guy a raise. Would recommend to anyone!

PS
Ask for Guy!

Roger was absolutely incredible. One of us dumped and he stayed so calm, assisted them back into their kayak, remained professional and humorous. We were able to see alligator monkey and manatee and so much more. What a fantastic tour guide he is. We will be returning because of his expertise.

Mike was an awesome tour guide; we can't recommend him enough! The information and explanations were extensive, and he made sure we were all doing okay as we paddled out to the island. The dolphins and manatees were shy, but the jellyfish were a fun highlight, and the beauty of the stars was incredible! This was a great experience and the lighted kayak ride back to shore was so peaceful and beautiful. Highly recommend!

Glass-bottom kayaking with manatees and dolphins was an absolutely unforgettable experience! Although we didn’t see any manatees, there were plenty of dolphins, even upon our arrival.

Bob, our guide, was friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate, making the whole trip both fun and educational.

Paddling was easy and relaxing, perfect for beginners and those who love nature or just want a unique adventure. Everyone said this was the best part of the trip. If you're in the area, don’t miss this! It's a must-try that we’ll definitely do again.

Wonderful experience - great staff! My sister and I decided to do a clear kayak rental on Lake Ivanhoe - scheduling online was quick and easy. The staff were friendly and helpful, even providing us with a dry bag. Great 2 hour paddle in this little oasis a mile from downtown Orlando, saw pelicans, ospreys, herons and turtles. And a glass of fantastic wine afterwards at a great little Greek restaurant there. Highly recommend!

Guy was amazing! He was very knowledgeable about the Flora and fauna, and has a good eye for spotting wildlife! We saw alligators, manatees (including a baby and her calf!), and even a river otter. I was a little stressed at the beginning since it seemed like we were going to start a little late, but Guy made sure we spent our whole time on the water and then some. I can't believe how much wildlife is in this part of Florida & as a huge nature lover, I was in HEAVEN. I'm already excited to go back

We had an amazing kayak tour at Silver Springs today! Our tour guide Roger is very knowledgeable and friendly. He made the tour a lot more fun and easier! We saw manatees, luckily, alligators, birds, turtles and otters! Please note that if you search the meeting point address on Google map, it will take you to the admin building of the park. Wrong way! Thanks to Richard, the office guy who called me before departure time
, we finally found our way to the dock. Everyone is so nice and friendly! I strongly recommend Epic Paddling!

Awesome tour! Rich was our guide, he was so friendly and knowledgeable about the history of the springs, the park and the animals within. He knew where the manatees were along with the alligators and other wildlife. Definitely recommend this tour group!
