Tourist Testimonials

Lindsay was an amazing guide and has a plethora of knowledge about the area -- I learned so much about the birds, sea life, and history!

LuAnn Aakus Kayak or SUP Rental

We had a wonderful time and the guides were fabulous! We really appreciated the waterproof jackets they gave all of us to wear...it made the whole adventure WAY better than other kayaking experiences we have had elsewhere. Also, the laminated maps and animal identification pages were greatly appreciated.

Frank Hsiao Day Tour in Tomales Bay

Leah was AMAZING - she did a great job of clarifying and providing consistency as we developed our trip over the course of a week and a half. We had a few hiccups in the booking process, but Leah helped us at every step with clear communication and kindness.
