Very easy to use, they allow you views from the water, to dive, but also to stop and explore the shores. With family or friends, a kayak tour is always a good option.

Ricardo or guide was very respectful , friendly and helpful. We first went kayaking in a beautiful lake, very tranquil and lovely scenery. Ricardo made us take our time and he never rushed us. Then he took us to Ardo Waterfalls where we hiked some steep steps but very doable. He kept taking pictures of us there and sharing them with me later. After that we went to lunch where he sat with us and recommended food to eat. Great lunch After that we went to the wolf trap and Ricardo told us how they trapped wolves that killed the cattle in old days. When though we were 65+ years old, we all were able to climb the big mountain there to the very top and then back,b with Ricardo's help and guidance. He was watching out for everyone in the group. Thank you Ricardo, we had a great time. Mona

This was an excellent excursion for our family of four (2 adults & 2 teenagers). We kayaked at a beautiful remote location. Then took a peaceful hike thru an old village to a gorgeous waterfall where we climbed the rocks to swim near the top. Once in a lifetime experience. I would highly recommend this experience.

This felt like a day well spent. When the tour says nooks and crannies, it isn't an exaggeration. From going off the beaten path to eat lunch in a mountain village to seeing all the beautiful vistas, this tour does as much as you'll be able to do in a day. Bruno is a solid human being, incredibly accommodating, knowledgeable, and really cares about the park. He said it, and I'll say it to: 1 day is not enough to truly enjoy the entirety of the park. However, if you must experience it, or understand the depth of the park, spend a day with Bruno, you won't regret it. The kayaking itself was okay, but it is truly the entirety of the park and Bruno's guidance that take the cake.

What a wonderful day we have had with Bruno. A local who really knows the in and outs of the area. With our luck we were the only ones on this trip so it turned into a private tour. From kayaking to the views of geres national park to a lovely local lunch and a hike with a beautiful waterfall and lagoon. This was above and beyond our expectations. Thank you for the unforgetable trip Bruno.
