Why We Love This Unique Experience
Orlando Experience Gifts: Enjoy a guided tour of the Econlockhatchee River with this fascinating 4 Hour Kayak Adventure from Oviedo.
If you’re planning a vacation to central Florida and would like to see some of its stunning scenery and wildlife but have limited time or have children with you, then this 4 Hour Kayak Trip down the Econlockhatchee River with a tour guide could be the ideal kayak experience for you. Your guide will take you on an 8-mile guided kayak tour through the Little Big Econ State Forest to see the stunning cypress forests, moss covered live oaks and backwater tributaries of the region. Paddle along at a relaxing pace while taking in the beautiful landscapes and pointing out the amazing wildlife to your children. Nicknamed the “River of Many Mounds,” children will also enjoy seeing if they can spot the many Indian mounds found along the route, which are remnants of when the Indians were here in the past. A white, sandy beach at one of the river’s bends makes a great stopping point for a swim, rest and picnic, before complimentary transport takes you back to base.
This 4 hour Guided Kayak Trip down the Econlockhatchee River would be a fun Mother’s Day or Father’s Day gift, or an exciting experience to share with friends.

Experience Overview:
Econlockhatchee River Kayak Tour In OrlandoFor those paddlers and wildlife lovers that are a bit more adventurous we offer the amazing alligator experience. This 8 mile paddle down Orlando’s closest wild river is home to a large population of enormous alligators. Your experienced guides will get you close so you can get the perfect pictures. In addition to alligators we frequently spot otter, turtles, wild boar, black bear, coyote, and deer.
We take time stopping at numerous beaches for stretch breaks, dips in the river to cool off (yes it is safe), short hikes on the Florida trail, and a light snack under the remains of the Flagler railroad bridge.
This tour is also wonderful for our birding friends. Swallow Tail Kites, Bald Eagles, Crested Caracara, Limpkins, Ibis, and Roseate Spoonbills all call this river home.
Our founder and owner grew up near this river and still makes his home beside it. It is no wonder why he loves taking people out paddling on it and sharing its beauty.
At the end of the paddle we do what no other tour company in Orlando will, we shuttle you back to your car. We believe having to paddle out and back upstream is a horrible idea and only allows you to experience half of the river.
Private tours available for groups of five or more. Overnight camping tours to paddle the entire 20 miles available by contacting us.

Adventures in Florida
Adventures in Florida started with a group of life-long friends that always seemed to find better things to do than hold a job. Weekend trips stretched into month-long expeditions. Family trips grew into include family, friends, and friends of friend’s. When it became impossible to even consider regular work, we incorporated.
Over the years we have managed our growth to prevent losing the very things that made us a success: small group travel and first class service with the highest level of professionalism. We will never compromise our commitment to you, our guest, or to the preservation of the natural environment. Trip Advisor has recognized this commitment to quality by awarding us their 5-star rating “Certificate of Excellence” for the last six years in a row.
