We submitted an…read moreinquiry through the website for a jet ski rental and Katie, one of the owners, responded right away. She was very helpful and provided all of the info that we needed to book. We met her at Lakefront Park Marina in St. Cloud which was an easy 45 minute drive from Orlando and launched from there. We were a bit nervous because our kids were jet skiing with us for the first time, but Katie gave us a thorough safety training and was on the water in case we needed assistance. The lake is huge so there was a lot of space to explore. She took great photos and video of us free of charge. We had a great time and plan to book again through Island Vibez!!

She briefly and clearly gave us a safety brief and thoroughly explained the controls for each jet ski before allowing us to take off. I was nervous as hell seeing as I can't swim but she assured me I'd be okay and provided a life jacket as well. After about 45 minutes of free riding she already had like 40 pictures of us. She gave us free reign to ride and kept a watchful eye but was never overbearing. A storm and rain hit us mid session and we were fighting for our lives trying to ride through the 4 ft waves but instead of making us end the session Katie had us follow her to another side of the lake. The scenery was awesome. We ended up stopping at Cyprus Cove to wait it out a bit. After about 15 minutes the storm calmed down and we were able to take in a bit of the sunset and a rainbow on our way back to shore. She actually gave us quite a bit of extra time out there too. 10/10 couldn't have been better especially for my first time.

While we waited for them to reopen, we enjoyed a stop at the bar right across the way. Once the weather cleared, which took a little longer than we expected, we headed back over. The staff was really nice and made sure we were able to get right on the water. They allow you to go out for 30 minutes, which was definitely quite the workout! I really enjoyed seeing all the different Florida birds while we paddled around. I also thought it was super cute that the boats have little umbrellas over them, which definitely helps with the Florida heat. We highly recommend choosing a cloudy day to make the most of the experience. There's also a back seat on the boats, so if you have kids with you, no worries. I was extra excited that we got the golden boat! If you're near the area, we highly recommend this experience if you want to enjoy nature and see some really cool birds. They also have a wheelchair accessible boat! : )

It was fast. It was fun and pedaling made it all more exciting! You can either cruise and let the wind take you wherever or you can pedal and go across the lake or any destination really. The staff was kind and we were lucky that the weather was on our side. Wasn't too sunny and it didn't rain. Beautiful views and a fun time with my group!

It actually broke while walking to the boat and in the water. The water was 72 degrees and not bad. I stayed in the water the full time with no issues. The kids were in and out. They had hot cocoa on the boat. We saw quite a few manatee and enjoyed watching the swimming and hearing them much the sea grass underwater. It was so peaceful. We really enjoyed ourselves and the guides were great! The kids asked to do it again! I take that as a major win. They are 12 and 8 years. Lunch was yummy. The state park had great animals and we enjoyed walking around. The airboat is such a great experience and feels like no other boat. You must do this tour! Thank you Real Florida Adventures! You guys Rock!!

I planned a solo trip to Orlando and wasn't sure what to do. After doing some research, I found…read moreReal Florida Adventures with a list of some fun excursions to do through them. I spent three days doing activities and went to the Kennedy Space Center, Sea Screamer & Clearwater Beach Day Trip and the Manatee Snorkelling at Crystal River. I had Ricky and Gary as my tour guides, they were friendly and knowledgeable and did a great job with delegating the trips. I was by myself for the Kennedy Space Center and Ricky was my own personal guide that day. I was pleasantly surprised they didn't cancel the trip because I was the only person so props to them on that. My favorite trip highlights included seeing the dolphins playing at Clearwater and the wild airboat ride on the Withlacoochee River and seeing some gators. Plus snorkeling with manatees. I would definitely recommend!

We got out a few minutes early and the weather was great. They give you a ton of information about the area and let you spend about 15 minutes driving the boats around without limit. The boats get up to 30-35 miles per hour and are easy to control. They hand out waters and life jackets. Even an unskilled boater can handle it. I will 100% be back

Nate was a fantastic tour guide! I found this trip online in a travel app. I was pleasantly…read moresurprised that they allow booking through their website at a lower price. I paid for two people so I could come by myself. It was totally worth it. Definitely worth the drive from Orlando. The rivers, canals, and lakes are so beautiful and diverse. It was great to get a chance to just ride around and explore the lake on our own. I was definitely go back on another tour. Nate said they have several different routes. I went when the high was about 65° they provide seat warmers so as long as you have a jacket you'll be fine.

The best helicopter experience I have ever had!…read more I have gone on 5+ helicopter rides before, but this was my favorite. International Heli-Tours offered a customized flight, a comfy waiting area and a very smooth process. I visited with my grandfather, who sometimes needs extra time or assistance. The crew at International Heli-Tours never rushed us, and gave him extra assistance for getting in and out. We had wonderful views of the Universal Epic Universal construction site and Orlando area. And, the price was about $15 less than I found at competitors. Very, very happy with our visit, and we plan to come back again soon.

I was afraid in the morning because it was raining so much when I left home, but then it stopped when we got there was a beautiful day! Our guide told us the ATV tours can be done any day of the year, rain or shine ! But the beautiful shinny day was definitly amazing!

My teenage son and I had such a great first time paddle boarding! Trust me he doesn't find many things enjoyable anymore so I highly recommend if you are looking for something to do with your teens or with the whole family. We have to give a huge thank you to our wonderful tour guide Sabrina. She went above & beyond our expectations! (Took some great pictures as well!) She was very helpful, made our experience easy, smooth and most importantly enjoyable. We only wished we would've done a longer tour to get to head out even further in the water, but we will definitely be doing that next time when we come back since we don't own any paddle boards this tour is definitely something worth doing, especially if it's your first time like it was for us. The area has portable pottys as well as two regular restrooms to change before and after your tour. They also have a shop where they sell souvenirs and a few other items. Ps. You don't have to rent a locker, you will get a chance to put all your stuff away before your tour starts. If you are visiting they have camp sites that are ideal if you're looking to make a whole weekend out of it. I highly recommend it, I definitely can't wait to come back even though I'm two hours away it was definitely worth it!
