This was an incredible experience. La and Andon were the best guides and made sure we had the experience of a lifetime. Loved the pedaling kayaks- it kept my hands free for taking video of the beautiful whales we came across. I would 10/10 do it again. Amazing.

Booked a tour with this company and my travel companion couldn't go. Contacted them weeks ahead for a refund of one. It took them weeks and then with only a few days left before I was leaving they said they were cancelling both, but still have yet to give me my refund. I was very excited about this and have done a similar tour with another company in the past who was very professional. Be careful with this company.

The whole crew were all so friendly, welcoming, and helpful! We had a great experience with Anton as our guide, saw lots of whales, and we never felt rushed or bothered, even spent extra time with him to watch him fish for cool fishies and had so much fun! Highly recommend the hand free kayaks, it was so much easier to kayak for hours straight, and also have free hands to take pictures or eat snacks :)

If you are looking for a private, relaxing kayak excursion with an engaging local, this is the kayak outing for you. We had perfect weather and calm seas. The 2 person kayak is easy to pedal and steer. It is a very stable watercraft. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. We were fortunate that our guide had caught fish earlier that morning and he shared with us with several fresh fillets to take back. This was an unexpected bonus!

Got recommended a better time of day which is early and the conditions were great then. Most beautiful spot. Our guide was very friendly and interesting and made it a wonderful experience for us. I only gave them a 4 out of 5 because they forgot to bring the snacks but it wasn't a big deal. Our guide took pictures of us and sent them to us.
