Great trip with Lee and Logan as guides. The leisurely kayaking tour along the lake to the canyon was a beautiful way to explore it. Logan and Lee were friendly and easy to talk. Note: future guests should be aware that you will get wet to some degree from the kayaking, and I had to wade through cold water to land the kayak in preparation for the canyon walk. This is not criticism, the water level and landing sites change all the time, just be aware that there will be some physical effort required, and make sure to dress for the weather. The one hour walk through the canyon can be really cold if you are wet, and the temperature is low.

It was a perfect day. We were picked up in Flagstaff. Loved that we could just enjoy the trip and not worry about driving 2 1/2 hrs. Our driver ( Kurt, I think) was so knowledgeable about the area and history. Also made good stops along the way and always made sure our bathroom stops were nice for the ladies. No outhouses for us. Felt like we were taking a road trip with a friend. Definitely, recommend it.
