Must do! one of the most interesting, enjoyable, excursions we’ve even taken! Ryan is so knowledgeable &funny too! 😁 - This was a fantastic experience! Ryan is so knowledgeable, it was easy paddling and saw amazing nature, iguanas, marine life, birds, plants etc. After the tour we walked over to Morgan’s and had one of the best dinners we’ve ever had on holiday, a lovely experience all around. Highly recommend!

Glass bottomed kayaking. - The kayaking trip was really fun and easy. Our guide Ryan was very knowledgeable and personable and we had a lot of fun paddling around and discovering all these critters. A very mellow, good time, would definitely recommend.

Must Do in Grand Cayman! - This is a nice relaxing tour through canals and around the mangroves. The water was mostly calm so not a lot of hard paddling. Good for beginners. They have 2-person kayaks also. Jim was a fantastic guide. He knows all about the mangroves and seems to really love guiding this tour. He will also take photos for you and has a lockbox to store your valuables.

Great Relaxing Afternoon! - We had a really great time on the tour! The weather did not entirely cooperate - it was cloudy which made it a very pleasant day to be out but it was also very windy! So we stayed in the mangroves to be protected from the wind. Obviously your experience will depend on what your tour guide is able to find … Ryan was our guide and he was SO knowledgeable about the wildlife there! We found some mangrove jellyfish & got to hold them! Also found some other sea life that Ryan will scoop up in a bowl & pass around for everyone to see! If you are looking for a fast-paced adventure, this is not the excursion for you. But if you want to learn more about the mangroves & its inhabitants while doing some light kayaking - sign up!

Ecological Kayaking Tour - Took a two hour kayak tour with Ryan. Ryan was extremely knowledgeable about many aspects of the local ecology. He was able to communicate that knowledge in a personable and comprehensive manner. The kayaking was not strenuous and well suited for those not experienced in kayaking. We would highly recommend this activity.

Kayak lovers - 10/10 - We really enjoyed the kayak tour. Ryan , our tour guide, was very knowledgeable about all the different types of plants and you could really tell he was passionate about them. He was very easy to talk to. I also liked the fact this was a small group tour and it felt more personal.

Fascinating kayak trip - A fantastic afternoon spent kayaking around the mangroves and canals. The best part was the brilliant commentary from our guide, an ecologist. We learnt so much about the local wildlife. Highly recommend this trip!

Pricey for just so-so - Knowledgeable guide. See thru boats were sort of pointless since the water is so dark. I expected more nature but we stayed in bay and mostly saw houses.
