Great instructor; detailed instructions; beautiful day; a lot of time left for practice and our fear of the river and not being able to swim was alleviated! Definitely return..thanks Mark and Anthony

I would highly recommend this class for those who have not kayaked before! Adam is a great instructor. He covered the basics and helped each of us out with tips when we went into the water. It's great value for the price. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is interested.

Too many positive things to list them all. Matt was extraordinary in his explanation of kayaks, kayaking as well as the river and the wildlife. The staff were friendly and helpful in a genuine way. The equipment was clean and in good condition. The organization and plan for the session were well considered. The staff seemed patient towards older customers.
