Venture Outdoors

"You want to do this kayak tour! A great value, lots of fun, plus you can feel good that you’re supporting a local small business. Astrid is friendly, very knowledgeable about the surrounding plants and wildlife, and respectful of their environment. We were lucky to have an up close view of manatees, saw a Bald Eagle swoop down near us to catch a fish, a giant male alligator sunning himself, several baby alligators, turtles, and various other birds and fish along the way. A wonderful way to spend a few hours."

"What an amazing experience!!! Our tour guide Astrid was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, friendly, and caring. Astrid ensured that we all had a great time and took tons of photos and videos. She is very passionate about what she does and her enthusiasm shows. 18/10 recommend!"

"Loved our manatee kayaking tour with Astrid. She’s knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. Despite the cloudy weather, we still saw a dozen of manatees and other wildlife on our tour. This is one of the highlights of our trip. Our daughter keeps raving about it! A few way to take a break from all the theme parks. Astrid, thanks for making our tour such enjoyable."

"We had an amazing experience with Venture Outdoors. Our guide Astrid was very knowledgable about the wildlife and respectful of the environment. She was also patient and attentive to our needs, helping to adjust our positions for comfort paddling and carrying extra food, water, and something warm in case it got chilly. We saw tons of manatees -- they swam under our boats and right up next to us. The outing was a highlight of our time in Orlando!"

"Support a small business and choose Astrid. Very knowledgeable and respectful of local wildlife. It was 58⁰ so that made perfect conditions to see tons of manatees. Highly recommend Venture Outdoor kayaking for anyone, beginner to expert. Nice little treat going through Snake Creek."
