About Our Tours
National Park Kayak Tours
Viking EcoTours uses Hobie Pedal Kayaks so exploring Florida’s scenic waterways is effortless and fun for all ages. Guests simply pedal through the lagoon with their hands free to take pictures, drink water, or point out the wildlife. We create safe, comfortable, and unique experiences while guaranteeing an environmentally friendly excursion. Viking EcoTours is a proud partner of Leave No Trace as well as a member of 1% for the Planet and the Florida Society for Ethical Ecotourism.
We supply all equipment and a professional wildlife/nature guide certified by the United States Coast Guard Auxiliary and American Red Cross. No experience is necessary for your guided kayak tour. Your guide will teach you everything you need to know in just a few minutes to get you on the water and cruising along the lagoon to see mangroves, manatees, dolphins, jumping fish, diving birds, and more.
