    With spectacular views of Dillon Reservoir and the surrounding Rocky Mountains as your backdrop, this kayaking experience seems to deliver exactly what Colorado adventure seekers hope for. The guides consistently steal the show here. Brittany gets praised repeatedly for her patience with beginners and her knowledge of local wildlife, while Carter earns recognition for his entertaining talks about Keystone's history and infectious passion for Colorado's outdoor scene. Ty also gets multiple shoutouts for being easygoing and going the extra mile with gear to keep paddlers comfortable. Julia impressed one family with her expertise on the natural landscape, and guests across the board describe their guides as friendly, informative, and genuinely enthusiastic. The wildlife sightings add serious value to these tours. Bald eagles make regular appearances, sometimes multiple eagles per trip, along with ospreys fishing the reservoir. The 2.5 hour basic tour hits a sweet spot for beginners, giving you enough time to soak in those Continental Divide views without exhausting yourself. First-timers in tandem kayaks report feeling comfortable, with guides offering the kind of patience that turns potential frustration into laughs. As a bonus, your guide takes photos during the trip, so you don't have to worry about waterproofing your phone. Whether you're celebrating a bachelor party or just want a memorable morning on the water, this operation seems to understand how to make paddling accessible and genuinely fun.

    Excellent tour! Brittany knew a lot about the area and shared trivia about the wildlife, birds, mountain ranges, and all kinds of things. She took us into some scenic areas and pointed out things I would never have noticed otherwise. I kayak a lot on my own, but going with a guide is always a great way to learn more about what you are looking at. We did have a bit of choppy water toward the end, but Brittany handled it like a champion, keeping her cool and giving us all the advice and encouragement needed to get us safely back to the docking point. We had a great time and would definitely go again sometime!
