Our Guide was amazing she was so good at picking out wildlife we had an absolute blast she was Knowledgeable, helpful, and told us how to do things so we would have issues later. (Most helpful tip was how not to get blisters while kayaking!) We had Julie for our tour guide she was amazing.

OMG! Our full-day kayak tour with Michelle was amazing. She was a perfect fit for our group, fun to learn things from, and a great match for us! We rolled into the pick up laughing so much I feel out of my boat!

Beautiful trip! Late September is the best time to go, not too hot and not too busy! Our guide was great! It was easy to book and they were quick to answer all our questions!
