Where do I start! This trip was just the peace my husband and I needed! From the calm waters to the birds chirping and the alligator calls. It was the breath of fresh to remind us how truly lucky we were to be on the water that day. The employee was kind and friendly, got us everything we needed for a fun and safe trip. From the the wildlife ( otters, alligators, fish, frogs and so many birds) to the aquatic plants, everything was perfect. When we were returning our gear, we happened to meet the owner Greg. He was amazing, made sure to check on us, see if we had any difficulties. Even recommended some amazing places to stop for food! This trip couldn’t have gone any better!

This is without a doubt THE best place to explore the Wekiwa Springs in all of Orlando. My wife and I went out and paddled for hours, and if I could do this every day, I would. Greg was extremely helpful and kind, and I would go as far to say that there’s no better place for some awesome fun out in nature in the area.

Very helpful and pleasant staff, very affordable, gentle current. LOTS of wildlife, amazing birds, eagles, osprey diving for fish, alligators, an area where at least 40 egret were congregating in, on and around a copse of trees. Easy in and out. Perfect easy paddle The very short part at end on St John's River has lots of boat traffic.

the wildlife along the Wekiva was abundant - my friend & I enjoyed a peaceful paddle thru habitat I have only seen in National Geographic!! Alligators, eagles, heron, osprey and buttercup lillypads, to name a few of the delightful sights. Quiet on a week day, some boat traffic once we approached St. John River. Super helpful & friendly staff. An outing in nature i would highly recommend!

We experienced a guided kayak tour downstream on the Wekiva river. The starting point is about a 45 minute drive from the Orlando area. The tour lasted about 4 and 1/2 hours. Because the current was modest, I would only recommend the tour to those who are not adverse to a bit of a workout. Our private guide, Jimi, was extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife and vegetation we saw throughout the tour. His passion for ecology definitely was evident as we "worked" our way downstream. He communicated extensively throughout the tour and answered all of our questions. A shuttle came and picked us up at the end of our tour and returned us to Wilson's Landing. All in all a very professional experience that we would strongly recommend.
