Great fun, Great time! - Ben was awesome, very knowledgeable and patient. We have been on several kayaking experiences and this was one of the best. It's always fun to get out on the water and commune with nature. Having an energetic and thoughtful guide made it even better! Thanks, can't wait for our next adventure.

First Time - This was our first experience kayaking and our tour guide was very helpful by explaining everything we needed to know prior to boarding our kayak for two. Extremely knowledgeable with great conversation regarding the past and the future of Dancing Dolphins Oyster Trail. We saw sharks, turtles, fish jumping out of the water, and several species of birds.

We had the best time!... - We had the best time! You’re more likely to see animals in the morning, but we went in the afternoon and still really enjoyed the experience. Our guide was great! He taught us about the area, actually taught us how to kayak more efficiently, and overall was fun to chat with. He also had great dinner recommendations! We would absolutely book this again and recommend to friends.

Ben’s the best! - My husband and I were looking at ways to learn more about the environment here in St. Augustine so we chose a kayak tour with Geotrippin’ Adventure Co. Ben was our guide and very knowledgeable and passionate about the ecosystem and this area specifically. We didn’t see a dolphin but we saw many beautiful birds, learned about the mangrove trees, the huge oyster beds and the role of the wetlands in maintaining a healthy balance. We went on the 4pm tour and had the most beautiful sky and sunset as we made our way back across the river. Highly recommend this tour to anyone.

Kayak through the inter coastal and salt marshes of St. Augustine - My wife and I went on a two hour kayak trip. We had the best guide imaginable, Ben. He was very knowledgable about the wildlife we saw and the ecosystem we kayaked through. He couldn't have been more involved with the surroundings. When we return to the area we will definitely book another trip with them and request Ben be our guide.

February Kayak - I had originally booked with Kayak St. Augustine, but since I was the only participant they offered this option with Geo Trippin' the following day. I was still given the same price and offer to receive a credit if no dolphins were seen. I enjoyed the small group, and Ben, the guide, was very informative. He taught the basics and gave good tips along the way. Unfortunately we did not see any dolphins or turtles, but I did learn a lot about oysters and we saw some egrets and other birds. At the end of the tour Ben let the other company know that we did not see dolphins and I now have a credit from them. Chances are I won't get to use it, but its a nice gesture and great customer service from both companies.

Estuary Ecosystem Education Trip - Very educational about the estuary ecosystem and plants and animals involved with keeping it healthy. The importance of the ecosystem and how it affects all other facets of the environment were also detailed throughout the guided tour. Plants and animals seen along the way were identified by the guide. A better name for this excursion would’ve been “Estuary Ecosystem Educational Kayak Tour.” We were expecting to see dolphins, manatees, and sea turtles. The only things we saw were mangrove trees, oysters, birds and fish. When we asked about dolphins and manatees, our guide said he never sees them while out kayaking. Had we known that, we would not have booked the trip. That being said, our guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about the ecosystem and made sure we were at least knowledgeable as well before the tour ended.
