Kayak tour with geysers! - Brian and Allen were amazing kayak tour guides! Very accommodating for our small mixed levels group. They ensured we were safe at all times and let us stop for a picnic and bathroom break on the shore. They were both very knowledgeable on the history of Yellowstone and answered all our questions. Thank you for being so patient with us!

Good fun but hard work! - Enjoyable kayak in Yellowstone Lake in a cold and windy day! We were in two minds about going but I’m pleased we did it. The wind made it difficult to steer the kayak but we enjoyed the experience. Jeff was a good guide and kept checking that we were okay.
