Silver Springs Full River Tour

Join us!

Duration

Up to 4 Hours

Explore the entirety of the Silver River with us! This tour is the extended version of our popular 2hr tour and typically lasts 3-4 hours; this is our BEST chance at seeing monkeys and manatees!

We begin at the top of the Silver River at Silver Springs State Park’s kayak launch and end 5.2 miles down river at the Ray Wayside take-out. An experienced guide will check you in and guide you the full 5 miles to ensure you don't get lost and/or miss out on all the Silver River has to offer! This trip runs WITH the current so there is very little work involved! The Silver River holds an abundance of beauty and cool finds such as ship wrecks, underwater caves/springs, abandoned attractions, and more! You'll share the river with an abundance of wildlife such as turtles, alligators, otters, manatees, monkeys, fish and various species of birds! Whether you park at the take-out location or shuttle back to the launch site, your cost of transportation is included in your reservation and will be arranged at the time of booking. This activity runs 3-4hrs at a leisurely paddle/float pace and is the best way to experience all the Silver River has to offer! There is one stop along the way at the mid-way point for a bathroom break.

***This tour is not appropriate for small children or guests who are not in good health. Guests must be in good physical condition! Guests must be able to get into and out of their kayaks with little to no assistance, sit for 3-4hrs and pull their kayak (on wheels) up the take-out ramp at the end.

A shuttle ride back to your car will be arranged prior to your reservation at no additional cost.

This is a peaceful, leisure paddle. There is no swimming allowed here, and alcohol is prohibited.

Guests are encouraged to bring plenty of snacks, drinking water and sun protection to last a 4 hour trip in the sun.

An additional $6 PARK FEE (per person) will be due at the time of check-in.
