Our guide Garyson was exceptional! This was one of the best nights of our vacation yet! The sunset was spectacular and it was so peaceful just being out in the water taking a moment to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Would definitely recommend to other people who are in the area! Was such an amazing night that we’ll never forget!

This kayak tour turned out to be way more awesome than I couldve even imagined. My kids (13y and 9y) and I thoroughly enjoyed it! So incredibly peaceful and to top it off he took some amazing candid photos of us that I will certainly cherish for a lifetime. Amazing! Highly recommend

Albert was a wonderful and good- hearted guide. We asked him to let us know what a Loon sounded like and he obliged. We all paddled out in the lake and told scary stories like we were around a campfire! We loved the experience.

Albert was such a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. The kayaks were easy to maneuver, which is nice if you don’t have as much experience. We had a great time!

Awesome Experience

Glezarie_K, Jul 2024
We booked this as part of our Glacier National Park trip, and it did not disappoint! My boyfriend and I were initially worried with our limited kayaking experience (none), but we found it was easy to get handle on after an awkward start. Albert was great with giving us insight on the area, and we were able to get some really great pictures on the water! 10/10 recommend!

Must do light up canoe ride at Lake 5 Glacier

G_K, Jun 2024
This is an absolutely lovely experience Things to know:: - you need a $10 “conservation” license from Montana.gov …the website is quirky and slow -wear something waterproof like rain jacket & long - you and partner are the rowing people, be prepared It is a wonderful experience
