    We had a FANTASTIC morning with Joe. We got lucky, and it was a sunny day with just my wife and I attending, so Joe was able to give us all of his attention. Answered all our questions, gave us info we didn’t even know we needed, and had everything perfectly prepared for us. He let us set the pace as we paddled around the lake, got to know us a bit, and set a perfect tone the whole time. When we finished, he had a great snack spread for us, and gave us a little bit of a tour on the way back to the ferry. Couldn’t have asked for more.

    This was one of the highlights of our entire trip to Alaska. The views were gorgeous and our guides, Sophie and Annie were super friendly and knowledgeable. There are bathrooms on site and we were picked up right at the ferry port. We saw tons of bald eagles and we were the only ones on the lake so it was quiet and serene. Could not recommend this tour enough.

    Our tour guides Kay, Erin, and Karly were fantastic! Josh and Jake were also helpful getting us out on the lake. It would have been a wonderful kayaking experience if it wasn't my first time. There was rough waters the day we went and being inexperience it was a lot harder for my husband and I to maneuver but Kay was helpful getting us out of the rough water and along the shore when we drifted out further on the lake. The food was fantastic at the end and was right off the shore where our ship was docked.

    This was a great small group tour. Joe was knowledgeable, balanced our group well despite differing experience levels, and made it a very fun day. The kayaking was peaceful in a stunning spot; it was a completely different experience being so close to the water. Highly recommend!
