“Stephanie and Jared were absolutely wonderful to work with while planning our kayaking trip with multiple kids (ages 7–10). Stephanie made the planning process smooth and easy, and Jared experience and calm, confident guidance made all of us feel safe and excited from the start. His passion for the outdoors is truly contagious and inspired both the kids and adults alike. It was such a positive, memorable experience for our group. I feel this particular trip was a great workout and some may find it a bit challenging. That said, it made the experience even more rewarding. I highly recommend this kayaking trip—or any outing Jared provides!”

CANNOT RECOMMEND THIS TOUR ENOUGH! Do it!! 10 stars! ⭐️”
