?: Where do we meet? |
A: Once your tour is reserved we'll email you a confirmation with directions to your launch site. |
|
?: Is it safe for Children? |
A: Yes, it is absolutely safe for children. We take kids from ages 5 and up. Younger ones will ride in a tandem kayak with an adult in their party. For those who have paddling experience they are welcome to paddle their own kayak. |
|
?: Are there bugs? |
A: In Florida and on the creeks and rivers we paddle, bugs can be present. We usually see mosquitoes in the very early morning and in the late afternoon when the sun is setting; typically, before and after our tours. Occasionally, a deerfly will pester us. Don’t worry though, we carry insect repellent just in case. |
|
?: Do the tours go all year long? |
A: Yes, with the beautiful weather in Florida we are able to paddle all year. |
|
?: What about the weather? |
A: We rarely have weather issues. In Florida, if it's going to rain that usually happens in the afternoons when the sea breezes from East and West come together. Since we always meet in the morning, we tend to avoid any afternoon weather. Our river guides carry rain ponchos on every tour, just in case. If the weather forecast calls for inclement weather on your tour date, we will closely monitor it and work with you to reschedule your tour to a different day. |
|
?: Do you have tandem (double) kayaks? |
A: Yes, we have tandems, single sit-in and single sit-on-top kayaks |
|
?: Will I see Alligators? |
A: In Florida, there is usually an alligator just about anywhere there is water. For the most part, alligators are afraid of humans and will not harm us. They typically stay put when we pass by, or dive into deep water where they feel safe. Our river guides will ensure that everyone keeps a safe distance to avoid any danger, but close enough to get a great picture. |
|
?: Can we bring alcohol? |
A: No, we don't allow alcohol on any of our tours and it is not allowed on many of the rivers we paddle either. There is plenty of time for that afterwards. |
|
?: Do you give a discount if we bring our own kayak? |
A: Yes, we give a 30% discount. Our mission is to introduce adults and young people to the outdoors and kayaking. We hope that you will love it so much that you will buy your own gear and continue to be introduced to new locations with Adventure Kayak Florida. |
|
?: What is your cancellation policy? |
A: Our cancellation policy: Should you choose to cancel your tour, you must contact us no later than 24 hours prior to the meet time of your tour. Otherwise your account will be charged 100% of the tour price. We must hear from you prior to the day before your meet time to avoid the 100% charge. However, we promise to do our best to work with our customers and create a great tour for you. |
