Don’t miss this one!

Robbie was great! I’m a little older, a little out of shape, and he made sure I had fun. I went on the night tour, and it was outstanding! The stillness of nature at night was such a unique experience. I’ll remember this one for a lifetime!

Magic by moonlight

Danielle_G, Aug 2025

Amazing experience! Xander was awesome, ensuring we had fun and felt safe the whole time. Kayaking by moonlight was so different. We started whilst the sun was up, through to sunset then by moonlight. We kayaked for 1.5miles then stopped on a beach for a bonfire and smoores plus a ghost story! We saw a skunk, crayfish, herons, bats, a big owl and heard coyotes too. This trip is suitable for beginners. I would definitely do this again!

Absolutely phenomenal...

Chinyere_M, Aug 2025

Absolutely phenomenal tour! Xander was super friendly and knowledgeable. There were a couple cancellations on my small tour so it was just me but it still felt like I got the full experience. The river and the canyon are absolutely gorgeous at sunset and the tour included a stop at one of the beaches with a campfire and s'mores before heading back. Would 100% recommend and will definitely be bringing friends back next time I'm in town

Great evening on the water!

Overall the experience was great, and our only suggestion would be to have a guide in the front and a guide at the rear while kayaking. The fire, smores, native flute playing, and local lore stories added to the fun. Xander and Lexi were great guides! Awesome guides!!! Overall 2 thumbs up!!
