Zac and David were exceptional! So knowledgeable, oddly funny and made it very enjoyable. We saw dolphins on the 2pm tour
Very beginner friendly and our tour guides knew a lot of interesting things. We saw some dolphins which was pretty cool
Sam and Jay were wonderful guides. They were friendly, caring, and provided lots of cool fun facts! The experience was lots of fun and we did see many dolphins! Highly recommend!
Just a great experience getting out on a kayak into the Chesapeake/ Atlantic. The guides are great and made the whole excursion fun.
Our guide, Sam, has been fantastic. He shared a ton of appropriate information and kept everyone engaged throughout the tour. He checked with everyone frequently to ensure safety and comfort. We saw a number of dolphins, pelicans and other birds. We were a family of novice to first time kayakers
Kayaking on the bay a bit different than a river. Waves kept turning us around. But it was totally wonderful. The guides were great with a lot of great information on the wildlife and the area. We didn’t see any dolphins, but they said they see them about 70% of the time. We saw lots of pelicans and even some cow nosed rays(very rare to see). If we had done this tour earlier in the week, I would have totally done it a second time.
The tour guides were conscientious about our safety, our needs, and giving us a great time. They worked hard to make sure we saw several dolphin pods and were knowledgeable about the dolphins and area around us. They took pictures of our family in the kayaks and pictures of the dolphins and share them with us. It was a great day for our family. Thank you.
Will and Brayden were amazing!! They were calm and so informative. They got awesome pics and videos of the dolphins! We will definitely do this again when we come back to Virginia.
Everything was described and explained perfectly beforehand. Everything on-site is perfectly organized and the guides were very friendly.
It was at first a exciting adventure we sure looked forward to. Unfortunately, the tides and waves weren’t working on our side. The staff was able to get us back to shore in these crazy conditions. Gabe is very competent, calm and laid back, and acts quickly when necessary
