5.00We had a great paddle with Kevin. We were in open water, mangrove "tunnels", and even went to the beach. Kevin was very knowledgeable about the area and its native wild life. We can't wait to go back again!

5.00We had a fantastic kayak trip with a guide who knew the area extremely well, pointed out special highlights (such as dolphins), and was very friendly. Their organization and guidance were excellent and highly professional.
Great time

2.00We booked the kayak tour weeks ahead of our trip. The night before our trip we got a text asking if we wanted to use single or double kayaks. When we arrived we were told that the company we booked with was full and we would be switched to a different touring company. The man who told us this was rude about it and said if we didn’t like it we could ask for a refund. We had just driven 45 min out there so we stayed. The tour was not what we had expected and was lead by an egotistic arrogant guy who was just annoying to be around who felt the need to point out I was the slowest member of the group several times. We did not have a great time and were happy when it was over. What I don’t understand is why when we were contacted the night before they didn’t tell us then that we had been dumped to a different touring company. Why surprise us with it when we arrived instead of causing confusion and anxiety when we arrived. The lack of communication was unprofessional
Great

5.00I can’t recommend this kayak tour in Hickory Pass enough! Starting early in the morning was the perfect way to experience nature while it was still quiet and peaceful. Our guide, Kevin, was absolutely amazing. He’s incredibly knowledgeable about the area and wildlife, pointing out many things we would have missed. He made the whole trip both educational and fun. You can tell he really loves what he does. Also, a huge shoutout to the owner, Joey, who was extremely accommodating and friendly from start to finish. If you’re looking for a great outdoor experience, this is it!
