Lovely! - Tommy was very knowledgeable about the birds and wildlife. He was also very engaging.
It might be wise to ask your clients about their kayak experiences in terms of length of time. Single kayakers might find the current and wind more challenging than those who are a twosome and can share their paddling.

Kayak Mangrove tour - Took the Mangrove kayak tour this morning. What an awesome adventure. Tommy is a very knowledgeable guide and we would have missed much of the wildlife if not for his keen eye! He’s fun to be with and we felt very safe. I highly recommend this tour!

Perfect kayaking easy - Tommy guided us through the mangroves at Robinson Preserve. The area was beautiful and he was knowledgeable about the area and it was a fun experience. At one point we got out on a sandbar and took photos. We recommend Tommy and Florida Blue Adventures.

Great Adventure!!! - Loved our tour! Tommy is an excellent guide and made our first time kayaking fun and memorable. He is courteous and professional while ensuring everyone is safe and having a great time. We really appreciated his knowledge of the area and local wildlife, as well as his thoughtful attention to photo opportunities. He was also good about giving us patient and clear instructions as we learned. All the equipment was well maintained and in good working order as well. Highly recommended!

Peaceful afternoon kayak adventure - Tommy runs a fantastic kayak mangrove tour. His passion for the ecosystem, wildlife and nature all around is palpable! It was a small group (3), so we had the opportunity to choose our own adventure in many cases. Saw so many different birds, oyster beds, and a rare swimming raccoon. Once off the water, we saw an owl “branching off” from the nest, while Mom fed siblings. Wouldn’t hesitate going out with Tommy and Florida Blue Adventures again!

An enjoyable way to tour the Robinson Preserve - Tommy was an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide. He spotted a manatee which is uncommon in this area at this time of year. Besides guiding us around the manatee, he made sure we all spotted various birds in the area; escorted us to climb the watch tower; and helped us navigate the more challenging spots of the mangrove.
