The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. This isn’t an exciting kayak trip but instead a peaceful and relaxing one! The river is very quiet and still, and the only lights are from the resorts/restaurants you pass. Good for beginners or people with experience.

The staff couldn’t have been more attentive to the two of us in our senior years. This kayaking trip has become one of my favourite memories in my travel experiences. It was magical. Your staff was excellent. High five to you all and our heartfelt thanks. Valerie Phelps and Cindy Bennett.
