Exceeds Our Expectations for a Natural Experience! - Met Colton Greaser one of the lead guides at a Rest Stop. He was assisting another group just leaving and took time to share his vast knowledge with us! Went out of his way to show us the natural features of the area and details of the wildlife! If we could have hired him as our guide for the day - We surely would! His educational background with multiple college degrees is very impressive. We learned more in the 20-minutes with Colton than we ever could have reading articles or searching the internet! His "passion" is nature and Yellowstone Park! Thank you Colton we really appreciate you and your time with us! I'd highly recommend anyone considering hiring a tour guide to contact Colton for money well spent!

The adventures of kayaking - Well, my brother didn’t realize that there was fish food in the jar and so he just tossed it all at once. Then the minnows were swarming and then they ended up flooding their kayak and sunk it. But the guys are very helpful and knowledgeable. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to see it in person but once I heard about it, I could not stop laughing. It was hilarious!! Totally recommend for people that just wanna have a fun night you can be loud and they don’t care. It was a great time!!

Feeding fish - Although the tour guide and assistant (Brandan) were very friendly & nice, we expected some history of the water & area. Tips: let kayakers know, “if you want to take a sunset picture-now is the time”. We expected to take some nice pictures, but didn’t know the plan of the evening. Waters were very choppy!

Sunset was beautiful - I’m glad I did it - but will not do it again . Way to buggy, getting bit left to right . Didn’t see much - we fed fish - but thought we would see more . The tour guide was okay- just not impressed . Our kayaks were not led -

Perhaps a scam!! - Well. Let me see !! NOTHING!!! We waited there for 30 minutes along with another group that was going on the same trip. And NO ONE showed up at the location they said to meet at !!! This was a surprise birthday present for my husband and the surprise was on is !!! Also every number that I could use to call or text no one answered or helped me. Very disappointed and upset !

Terrible costumer service!! - Unfortunately, our trip got canceled due to the weather. However. I’ve been trying to call, email & text the number given but nobody has answered or emailed me back. I’m quite upset cause I feel scammed out of $110 even after they texted and told me to contact them to either get a refund or reschedule for a different date. I left a voicemail and everything and still nothing. Hopefully they at least see this and reach back out to me but I doubt it. I would stay far away from this place

Sharky's a big disappointment!! - We were on.our honeymoon and booked this trip and were exited to go. However, when we got to the location for the 8pm trip, no representative from Sharky's was there. We attempted to call without success. So, we began to text. 7 other customers showed up. We finally made contact with Sharky's and we're told the trip had been canceled due to weather. The sun was out....lol. 2 of the other customers said this was there 3rd night in a row "canceled" trip. Sharky's said they notified customers via email at 6pm. None of us had received any such notification. We even checked our spam, trash and text. Sharky's should have had a representative present to tell everyone what was going on . So, with that said we had no "memorable moments" with Sharky's. We booked a trip with another company the following night. We will not recommend Sharky's.
