Kayak Tour Reviews

We loved our guide, he was full of interesting facts, and did a great job

I participated on the Wambaw Creek blackwater kayaking tour with Teresa. Perfect! Prepare to learn about wildlife, see centuries old Cypress trees, and discover how the tidal creeks were used in the American Revolution. The group was a mix of experienced paddlers and first-timers. Teresa (and the waters!) remained calm and helpful for the entire journey. 100% recommend this distinct Lowcountry experience. I'm planning another trip to South Carolina ASAP so I can go on more adventures with Nature Adventures Outfitters.

Friendly and accommodating staff go out of their way to make things work smoothly. Cool place, good equipment, fun guide - really enjoyed the morning kayak trip.

Ben will structure a trip to fit any level of adventure like the pro he is

Nature Adventures ROCKS! Can't say enough good things about the 2-hour kayak tour. My son and I were first time kayakers and the guide (and the group) were so patient with us. Our guide (Merrill) was very knowledgeable and friendly and made for a great time. I even had one cancel out on me and had to rebook a tandem into a single upon arrival and was credited the difference without even asking! Fantastic business!!!

Will be coming back when we're in town. So much fun.

This was our first time kayaking and it was amazing! Our guide, Matt, was very knowledgeable regarding the regional history and nature. The kayaks were clean and comfortable and we were given proper instruction so that as "newbies" it was nothing stressful. We saw some really cool wildlife and heard some interesting facts. My only advice: 1. It was much sunnier than I had expected - definitely need to wear sunscreen. 2. The road to the loading spot was very bumpy with deep potholes - if you could drive a larger vehicle, it would be much easier to navigate than a low-riding car. 3. Keep your eyes open - there are so many cool things to see - just have to spot them!

We had a wonderful, easy kayak tour from the Still Boat landing up the creek into the cypress forest of Francis Marion National Forest just north (1 hour) of Charleston. Our guide, Laura (LK) was knowledgeable about the environment and was conscious of safety. We saw several alligators and many birds, including a special sighting of a swallow-tail kite. Very enjoyable 2 hours. There are some major potholes on the forest road on the way to the landing, so be careful. Take bug spray (not bad on the water, just while you are getting ready). We had a late afternoon tour and the water was calm on the creek. Easy paddling upstream and on the way back, basically just had to steer the boat.

Beautiful setting and fun! Big shout out to Graham who was personable, polite and knowledgeable. Be warned check the winds!!! Nearly impossible to paddle in the 13kts but made worth it by having the close view of the dolphins!

Great experience! Even got to see some dolphins

We had a very nice trip for our sons 15th birthday. Our guide Jacob was awesome, he was a very nice and informative guide. I would absolutely use them again for our next kayak trip.

Did a tour with family (two tandem kayaks). Great experience and very knowledgeable your guide!

A great kayak tour with Tori. She was great and taught us a lot about the history, ecosystem and wildlife. A great way to get out and enjoy nature in the area.

Charlie was a joy to paddle with! We saw dolphins and lots of other wildlife on our 2 hour tour.

It was very smooth from start to finish! Charlie was very knowledgeable and patient with our inquisitive girl. We will definitely be back for other tours.

Excellent guide (Matt) who was super knowledgeable and taught me more about tides than I ever learned in school!

Re: Wambaw Creek Trip. This is a peaceful beautiful paddle. Our guide, Jay, pointed out trees birds and of course gators. We were taught information about the eco system. On our trip we saw a Barred Owl , a Swallow Tailed Kite, Carolina wren, gators and more. Jay pointed out Cypress trees that are hundreds of years old. Great trip!

Views were great and it was a lot of fun! Guides were super interactive and made the trip awesome. (and we saw dolphins)

Steve was such an amazing tour guide! As a local who has never been kayaking Steve was very informative and I felt confident and safe. Will definitely be back!

Our kayak paddle was on a beautiful creek about 35 minutes from downtown Charleston. It was breathtaking. Our guide was safe, knowledgeable, friendly and kind. We saw about 3 alligators sunbathing and amazing pristine forest/jungle type of foliage. I highly suggest this company.

We went on a guided kayaking trip to Wambaw Creek; one of the Blackwater creeks in the Francis Marion National Forest. Fascinating! The guide met us ay the appointed time and location, the equipment was excellent, and his instructions to novice paddlers was patient and clear. Children above about 10 can do this in a tandem 2 seat kayak with an adult. We had a great time and the guide was superb.

We had a great paddle with Matt as our guide. He is wonderful - a wealth of natural and historic information. Saw tons of birds including an eagle!

We loved our kayaking adventure during our trip to Charleston! Lots of options for beginners and a little more advanced kayakers, the highlight of the whole afternoon was seeing the dolphin swimming around us before we finished for the day! Would definitely visit again during a future trip!

We had a lovely time on the Picnic and Paddle trip with our guide, Matt. He was very knowledgeable of not only the Charleston area and marine life, but also the area history, the ecosystem, paddling, and college football!
