How to Navigate through our Website

"The kayak trip I just finished was a ball - an absolute joy in every respect. I had never kayaked before but I always felt safe. Everything provided was in tip-top shape and got the job done. I think that very special praise should go to the kayak guides. They were excellent. More than any other factor, Martine made the kayak trip! Her very special personality stamped itself onto a great personal experience for me from the very first moment. The whole kayaking vacation package was without fault. A-1 quality!"
Paul Bromberg, Bellmore, NY
