Perfect smaller, personal tour group for our family. - Adventure Child tour was EXACTLY what we wanted for our family!! It was an intimate group vs. the 15-20 people tours that were going out the same day. We personalized our tour and made a few extra stops that were awesome with gorgeous sites. Our tour guide was friendly and very chill to us asking for changes/ extra stops etc. we made it make within our 4 hours and had a great time. Would 100% book them again!

Great fun Kayaking - First time Kayaking and the guide was very helpful and friendly. My family enjoyed the trip and it was lots of fun. Highly recommend to friends and family. 3~4hr trip for $99 per person wasn't too bad(price point)
