We had an excellent day on this trip. They provided helpful gear like dry bags, waterproof jackets, and paddle gloves to protect us from the cold water and wind. The guides were well-informed about the local flora, fauna, history, and geothermal attractions. They skillfully anticipated the wind conditions to ensure perfect timing and positioning for our enjoyable picnic.
Paddling to the geyser basin on Yellowstone Lake was truly unforgettable. My husband and I were fortunate to have an outstanding guide, Brian, who was not only focused on safety but also an exceptional paddling instructor. His extensive knowledge of Yellowstone's ecology and history kept us engaged throughout the trip. I highly recommend this kayaking adventure and encourage you to request Brian as your guide; it will surely become one of our fondest memories of Yellowstone.
The guide was warm and inviting, accompanied by two helpful assistants who were equally friendly. He shared his extensive knowledge about Yellowstone and its wildlife. The scenery was beautiful, and the lunch was wonderful.
The guides were excellent—knowledgeable, accommodating the pace of the larger group, and very friendly. Lunch was impressive; they offered wonderful gluten-free options as requested. The equipment was good, including wet bags and wind-resistant jackets, and they made sure each kayak was properly fitted. The trip also offered fantastic views of a geyser.
The trip with Brian was incredible. He was very friendly and knowledgeable, and he provided lunch as well. Brian also suggested other potential adventures. We will surely return.
The guide provided excellent insights about the area, the water was stunning, and it was a fantastic day immersed in the natural beauty around us. I’m considering a longer trip in the future.
I had a wonderful experience. Thai was very knowledgeable and patient throughout. Kayaking alongside the geysers was unforgettable. My cousin and I truly enjoyed ourselves. I highly recommend this activity.
Our guide was outstanding—extremely knowledgeable, approachable, and professional. We had an ideal day on the water at the geyser basin.
We thoroughly enjoyed kayaking on Yellowstone Lake this morning. Our guide was knowledgeable, approachable, and patient, providing interesting facts and history about the park. For our family of five, it was a memorable and unique way to experience Yellowstone—highly recommended.
What an incredible day! Our guide Brian and his assistant Ben were outstanding. They possessed extensive knowledge of both the area and the water. I felt completely safe and at ease. The equipment they provided was top-notch, and they supplied us with waterproof jackets and dry bags. The lunch was delicious and generous. We experienced beautiful weather, and seeing the geysers from the water offered a unique perspective. Along the way, we spotted two bald eagles and other waterfowl. The wind picked up on the return trip, making paddling a bit challenging, but Brian was there to support us, and we had a fantastic time.
