Wonderful experience the whole family can enjoy. Ty, our guide, was perfect for the kayak trip. He is kind, considerate to all paddlers, and shares knowledge of the area in a fun way. He adds personal stories that are hilarious and heart felt.
Our guide, Julia, was incredibly kind, caring and knowledgeable. She sought to connect with each person, know them by name and coach and encourage as needed.
Beautiful paddle! Julia was fun and knowledgeable about the mountains and the wildlife we saw! Clear blue skies and osprey and bald eagle sightings. Highly recommend this trip.
Really great kayaking trip. Cool to see all the mountains around and just be out in the middle of them. We had a perfect day with no wind, flat water and an empty lake. Brittany, our guide, was amazing. I have don’t lots of outdoors tours and she was one of the best guides I have ever had. Great personality, perfect amount of information, and super engaging. Highly recommend if you want to do something a little different in Colorado.
The guide was wonderful! Friendly. Have clear instructions. I was a birthday and for great photos with my brother in the kayak. Thank you
My sister and I took this tour at 9 am. It was an amazing experience! Ty is wonderful and so informative. The views were breathtaking and we saw some birds and a deer!! I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to see some beautiful scenery up close. I am not a great kayaker by any means and it was so easy to get in the kayaks and paddle. We will be back for sure!!
Carter,our guide, did a great job getting everyone checked in, outfitted, instructing us on safety, use of paddles, and getting us comfortable in kayaks. He pushed us off into the water and off we went. Unfortunately, my wife and I aren’t experienced kayakers and struggled to keep up with the group of 10 others that were with us so we missed a lot of the commentary from Carter. The tour gave great views of the mountains. Flat water was mostly easy paddling. I would recommend this tour but if you can’t keep up with the group, you sort of get left behind.
Carter was awesome! Our group of 10 had a great time and Carter made everything easy and fun. Book this kayak trip!
It was a great time despite the weather. Our guide was fun & made the best of it with the high winds.
Our tour with Brittany was awesome! She was very knowledgeable about the the mountain peaks, altitude, birds and potential wildlife we would see.
It was a very enjoyable tour. Ty was very friendly and provided many interesting facts about the lake and surrounding area. I would definitely recommend this kayak tour.
We were first timers our guide Tyler was amazing and very knowledgeable didn’t let us get to far behind lol got us back to shore safely lol
Great tour! Our guide Ty was awesome and weather conditions were great. They keep the tours limited to 5 or 6 kayaks which I loved compared to other tours I have done. Highly recommend!
Carter did a professional job of guiding us around the reservoir and pointing out nearby wildlife. Sighting 2 bald eagles was a special highlight!
Our tour guide Julia was amazing! We got to see several osprey and blue herons, as well as their nests!
it was an amazing experience, I was left speechless, the views where beautiful. overall will recommend and will come back.
Good workout but not too much for less athletic types. Loved the wildlife! Just funtime. Scenery beautiful
Well organized. Our tour guide, Julia, was cheerful, helpful and extremely informative! It was a pleasant surprise that she narrated the lake and surroundings.
Great experience! Our guide, Julia, was very knowledgeable and made it a fun tour! Would definitely recommend!!
My wife and I met up with our group a at the Frisco Marina for the 2 hour am Kayak Adventure. We are both 75 years young and a bit apprehensive about a 5 mile paddle. Julia put us at ease with her expert instructions and cheerful demeanor. We would recommend the trip to anyone interested in the natural beauty of an alpine lake.
Fabulous tour with Julia. Lots of wildlife and beautiful scenery. Very highly recommended. Well organized.
Great value for a fun experience! I’d never kayaked before and this was a very accessible adventure in a beautiful setting.
This was such a wonderful experience. Loved every second of it! Brittany was an exceptional tour guide. Seeing the moose and her baby playing near the water was a bonus.
Brittany was very knowledgeable and really explained things well. She checked in on us to make sure we felt confident. Had such a great time as a family of 3.
Our guide Ty was great and being from south Texas of course the view was amazing. I would definitely recommend this to anyone.
10 out of 10 experience. My siblings were first time kayakers and the guides, Brittany and Carter, made us feel very safe and were extremely knowledgeable of the terrain making the experience even more enjoyable. Our tour happened to have lady luck with us as we were able to go explore several areas of the lake that weren't available for tours yet. The lake was really calm and the directions from the guides were clear and easily followed. Parking was only $4 and the booth where you meet the guides was easily accessible and easy to find. They don't have cash app for gratuities so make sure you bring cash because these guys deserve it!
We had such an incredible experience with the tour! Or your guide, Ty, couldn't have been nicer and more knowledgeable about everything you could see. Thanks Ty!!
Loved our kayak tour with Norris!
Great for the whole family. Guide was very knowledgeable and friendly.
Great tour on a beautiful lake! And definitely was a workout. We had a fun w our two teenagers. And learned some Colorado fun facts along the way!
Norris was a terrific guide. It was windy but we did great. Beautiful and interesting! Enjoyed it a lot.
