TJ was knowledgable, relaxed and made the whole experience a great one. Thanks

I did a solo kayaking lesson the other day. Astrid was thorough helpful and I had a great time so would recommend!

We booked the Manatee Discovery Tour with Venture Outdoors and would really recommend it. Our tour guide TJ was very knowledgeable about the manatees and about wildlife in general at Blue Spring State Park. We spotted several manatees as well as blue heron, alligators and yellow-bellied turtles. It was a thoroughly enjoyable tour - many thanks.

Wonderful location. Guide was very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. There was just the two of us booked onto the kayaking experience and the only other beings we came across were the locals - alligators, birds, a snake and a turtle. We had an amazing time and would thoroughly recommend.

Astrid took us on a 2 hour kayaking adventure looking for wildlife. Sadly we didn’t see manatees but we found alligators and wonderful birds. She was a wonderful knowledgable guide who made us feel safe. We would highly recommend.

TJ was a brilliant guide, made us all feel comfortable as first time kayakers, we managed to see some native birds, a few gators and some manatees. Thank you TJ for making our trip to the US that more special :)

Had an amazing time with Venture Outdoors, paddling around Blue Springs. We spotted several manatees, various native birds and even a small gator! Astrid was our guide and did a fantastic job informing us about all of the local wildlife. During our paddle we got a couple sun showers which made it that much more magical. Highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to be immersed in the natural side of Florida. We will definitely be doing this again!

The company was extremely communicative prior to our scheduled outing, which was most helpful as the weather that day was not the best and we were driving up from South Florida for the excursion. We met Astrid our guide at the docks and she was very personable and informative. She set the expectations for the experience. As it turned out we were only a group of three so the flow of the trip was excellent. Conditions turned out to be outstanding and Astrid went out of her way to ensure that everyone had a great experience. I would definitely not hesitate to take another trip with Astrid in the future.
