Enjoy a unique kayaking experience on this Small-Group Guided Glass Bottom Kayak Eco Tour of Rainbow Springs in Florida. Begin your tour with a quick tutorial on basic paddle instructions and information about the tour ahead. Your kayak tour will last approximately 2 to 2.5-hours depending on the speed of our group and any wildlife we may see along the way. There will be plenty of opportunities to stop and take pictures at several of the picturesque stopping points along the way (there will even be a couple chances for you to get out and enjoy the refreshing Spring water!) This paddle is what any outdoor enthusiast or adventure-seeker is looking for. Year round we experience over 14 different type of birds, fish, turtles, otters, alligators, and other wildlife. The best part of it all, is that you have a chance to see some of these directly below your Clear Kayak!

What sets this rental apart? The right gear, local knowledge, and three full hours to soak in one of Florida's most beautiful rivers. Choose a crystal-clear kayak for a window straight down into the Rainbow River's famously clear water, or go with a stable sit-on-top kayak, classic canoe, or paddleboard — all beginner-friendly and perfect for families. Before you launch, we'll share insider tips a guidebook can't give you: where the otters have been playing, the best side creeks to explore, and the prime spots to stop, wade, and snorkel in the 72-degree spring water. With three hours on the water, you'll have time to paddle toward the headsprings, drift back with the gentle current, and linger wherever the river wins you over. Easy booking, friendly local service, and a launch right on the Rainbow — it doesn't get better.

We begin the tour by heading upstream from the launch. As we paddle, we will pass by a few freshwater springs, explore a scenic crystal clear creek, and we take time to snorkel/swim around a bit in the Rainbow River. At the creek, you will have the opportunity to wade in the sandy bottom creek and explore sand boils that feed spring water into the river. • Small groups, no larger than 8 people • Luxury kayak seats • Clean and unscratched clear kayak • All equipment necessary for a fun and safe kayak experience
