Crosby and the 7 Sisters ,Crack springs. - Crosby was our guide and he did a Super job for us. We were the only two people so we had his undivided attention. He was very knowledgeable about the river. He showed us two Manatees, an Otter, a baby alligator. He showed us the 7 Sisters springs and The Crack. I had never been to either one so this was an awesome experience. Thanks Crosby for helping us make lifelong memories. We have been truly blessed to have Crosby as our guide.

Our Day On The Chaz! - Hi Austin! Thank you for reaching out, and thank you for creating Get Up And Go Kayaking that allows folks like us to have the opportunity to enjoy a perfect day out on the water Kayaking! We were able to explore your website with ease, finding everything needed to schedule our reservations. With that, we’d like to again thank Dmitry our fantastic tour guide for such amazing day on the water! As Dmitry greeted and introduced himself, he laid out the plan for the day on the water. During that exchange he was getting a feeling for what each of us were looking for out on the water today. Dmitry was very easy to talk with, and we truly enjoyed him sharing stories of his life on the water, which he was able to incorporate durning our kayaking experience! We appreciate his overall guidance and safety getting us in and out the kayaking. His overall knowledge while on the water, his amazing in site regarding the wildlife, layout of the waterways, from the birds, the manatees to everything in between really created an amazing experience. Thank you both for an amazing day on the Chaz today. It truly a wonderful day for all of us!

A perfect morning - It was the most beautiful canoe trip I've ever done. And I’ve done many 😅 Our guide did so great - we learned so much and saw so much. Thank you Dimitry for this great morning without screaming and stress (we left our 3 children with the grandmother at the camper :)). Thanks also for the restaurant recommendation, we had a great evening. ❤️

Great Birthday gift! - This was a surprise for my birthday and it was a fantastic gift! Crosby was a great guide and knew a lot about the river and manatees. It was a relaxing adventure and we would recommend this to anyone looking for a kayak tour and got tons of great pictures.

Fun, scenic place for a paddle - Our guide was so friendly and accommodating in every way. We had some very typical Florida weather and it rained right as our tour was set to begin. Our guide gave us all of the options and ultimately we decided to continue our trip as neither of us minded the rain at all. Our guide showed us some neat spots along the river, including two sets of springs. Despite the rain, it was a great day out on the water!

Great paddle - Been on this river several times over the years but wasnt able to bring my kayak so I rented from get up and go. Experienced stuff I haven't on my previous paddles there thanks to guide Crosby, and his assistant Owen was so helpful when docking my kayak in one particular tricky spot and helped me get out without face planting into the water. Wouldn't have been able to have such a great paddle on this recent stay in the area if it weren't for get up ans go!

Not at all worth the money! - The areas we were kayaking in were beautiful. How ever I would NEVER have advertised this as a guided tour, our so called “guide” showed up late never even introduced himself & had two young men there that were to shadow him as they just got hired on, even the two of them were surprised by the guides lack of efforts in leading us or even talking about the things we were doing! At one point they asked if we paid for this trip. Our guide was more times than not trailing behind, showed no enthusiasm, offered no help getting the 64yo woman in or out of the kayak, let 2 in the group go the wrong with the trainees who knew nothing calling them back. Once we arrived back to the docks, our “guide” was again so far behind that we had to get ourselves out and pull all the kayaks in, Which brings up the condition of the equipment….we were filthy once we got out all covered in black on our legs and arms. I absolutely would not recommend this tour especially for the price that was paid.
