Pure happiness! - Brandon is very professional, he gives safety instructions and takes the welfare of the group very seriously. When you say all inclusive, there is NOTHING missing. The descent of the river is beautiful, very easy and I even had the chance to swim. The meal was excellent, followed by good ice cream, what more to ask for! Really perfect day! I'd give more 25/5 than 5/5. I highly recommend this excursion. Have fun!

A day out to the serenity of the outdoors on a Kayak. - This was a wonderful way to spend a day out. Everything is run smoothly and easy. The Kayaking was easy and the ice cream was delicious. It was worth going on this trip; a trip away from home for a day to the quiet outdoors.

My birthday trip on the Picanoc River. - Three friends and I booked this kayaking and lookout tour for my birthday.
The communication leading up to the day was informative and very helpful.
The bus was on time and as we drove to the Rivière Picanoc Brandon was great fun and explained everything in detail and what to expect. It was a perfect day to meander slowly down a beautiful quiet river. We had quick swim about halfway along the 5 km.
The ride to the Blue Sea lookout was bumpy but the music playlist was awesome. Lunch was very good indeed with an amazing views across the hills.
The drive home was just as bumpy - Quebec roads for you!! - we stopped at a wonderful little ice cream stand and had two scoop waffle cones - yummy.
To sum up we had a wonderful day out - and would thoroughly recommend this day trip to all in the Ottawa/Gatineau area.

A great summer day - This was such a great day! Our guide Brandon took care of everything and made sure we had the best time. The kayaking was actually super relaxing. Brandon was very helpful, giving plenty of directions and making sure everyone was comfortable and knew what to do. The river does most of the work, plus we got to stop at a couple beaches and go for a swim. The food in the lunchbox was delicious and on top of that, we got ice cream! The tour company provides pretty much everything you can think of for the day, so there is absolutely zero stress if you forget anything. You really can just hop in the van and enjoy your day. This was a full day and a great idea if you're looking for something fun to do this summer. I cannot recommend enough.

Highly recommend this tour for a wonderful day outdoors! - This company does EVERYTHING for you! You just show up and enjoy the experience! You are provided with travel to and from all visit points, you have free snacks on the tour bus, all the equipment you need and a mini kayaking 101 lesson. The river was peaceful and easy to navigate for any novice kayaker and provided a lot of great photo opportunities. The summit tower was incredible and we enjoyed a great boxed lunch from a local restaurant. But that wasn't it..... the visit to an ice cream shop (with a pig to greet you) and chocolaterie in Wakefield were the cherry on top of a great day! We learned a lot about the area, its history and about all the wonderful local artisan/businesses. Brandon was a great tour guide!!

Great customer service, but got cancelled because of weather - Would give it 5 stars but unfortunately I never got the chance to experience this tour. They cancelled because of weather (which btw never ended up showing up). I’m not mad at the tour guides because I understand they are liable. Just a bit disappointed. The refund was given within 24 hours so I’m happy with that. The people in charge were really nice, it’s a shame that I wasn’t able to join their adventures. Overall the customer service and kindness was amazing but since I never got the chance to do it I’ll have to keep my stars low. Hopefully someone else will have the opportunity to enjoy this.
