Paddle your own inflatable kayak with guide instruction, plus snacks, drinks, and trip photos included
Half Day
Gear, Snacks, Drinks
Take on a half-day Class III inflatable kayak trip where you handle the navigation with support from trained guides. You’ll get geared up for comfort on the river, then head out after an instructional talk.
Minimum age is 7 to 10, depending on water level. Trips run mid June through August and depart rain or shine. Each member of your party must sign a liability release waiver.
Cancel at least 48 hours in advance to receive a full refund, less booking fee and credit card fees. Cancellations within 48 hours of your scheduled trip will be charged the full amount. Reschedule or change the number of people in your group at least 24 hours in advance.
Please provide a list of everyone’s name, height, weight, and shoe size so proper-fitting wetsuits can be brought. Also share any important medical conditions (for example, heart conditions or food allergies).
Please be prepared for pick-up 15 minutes before the scheduled departure time. Pick-up times may differ depending on your desired pick-up location, and reservations staff will confirm your pick-up location and timing.
Wear a bathing suit under a comfortable pair of clothes so you have dry clothes to change into after the river. Recommended items include sunglasses (with a strap), sunscreen, a water bottle, and a cap.

Trevor was fantastic. Super knowledgeable - made the day go great! We slammed fish - he knew the spots. Was helpful with my wife was well - aka “Miss Tangles”.
