We truly enjoyed our guided kayak tour. Dylan, our guide, shared a wealth of knowledge and offered suggestions for other great spots in Yellowstone. The views were stunning. Having done multiple kayak tours, this one stood out as the best. The water was calm in the morning, though the wind picked up on our return. It was a highlight for our kids while visiting Yellowstone.
Dylan was an exceptional tour guide who allowed us to set our own pace while sharing a wealth of information and some intriguing stories about Yellowstone. Our group was significantly smaller than those from other companies launching at the same time, enhancing our experience. Don’t forget to inquire about the three-toed bear. Thank you, Dylan!
