A Perfect Day on the Water with Epic Adventures! - We had an amazing time kayaking in Silver Springs, Florida with Epic Adventures! Stevie and Ben were absolutely fantastic guides—knowledgeable, friendly, and fun to paddle with. They made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. My son Andrew and his fiancée Clare loved that they were able to bring their own paddle boards, which made the trip even more special for them. My husband Matthew and I (Kimberly) opted for the clear kayaks, and we were blown away by how incredible it was to see the underwater world as we floated along. The water was beautiful, and the wildlife sightings made the trip unforgettable. Overall, Epic Adventures delivered an exceptional experience for our whole family. We can’t recommend them enough!
