Fun Experience! - We went on the 3 hour Kayak in Mid-October. Our guide, Leo, was amazing and very knowledgeable about the flora and fauna. We saw a ton of different birds, harbor seals, and harbor porpoise. Highly recommend it.

Awesome experience - So much fun and they were great communicators. I booked same day and they called and said, we’ll be happy to take you out this afternoon! Just wanted to let you know there’s going to be strong current and you might have more fun tomorrow morning. But whatever you want to do is good with us! I appreciated that honesty so much and the options. We moved to the next morning and had an amazing kayak with Caleb.

A perfect trip! - We did a three hour kayaking trip. We'd never been in a sea kayak before but our guide Gwen took care of everything and showed us what to do. The time flew by. We visited the old Lighthouse and saw sea birds and harbor seals. Perfect day and perfect weather. Gwen was great. Relaxed, knowledgeable and fun. We highly recommend and would go on another AKT trip if we are ever back in the area.

Awesome Team Building Experience - We held our 18 person company team building event doing the 3 hr kayaking experience at 8:30am. It was perfect. Everyone was so happy and positive about the experience. We had 2- 3 person kayaks and 6- 2 person kayaks amongst our group. We took breaks often for learning opportunities which afforded an opportunity to rest arms and drink water for all. We saw harbor seals, harbor porpoises, 3 bald eagles, blue heron and sea stars. We had pretty calm water so I don't think this event pushed us beyond any of our capabilities. The staff was professional and helpful. Megan(owner) was super helpful leading up to the event to make sure we were all squared away so we weren't wasting time on paperwork on the day of the event. As far as team building goes, what an opportunity to interact with people on your boat as well as the boats around you. Plenty of picture taking opportunities as well as time on the open water to learn about each other and work as a team steering the kayaks.

We had a fantastic time and want to do it again! - Our guide, Emma, was GREAT! She was super knowledgable and pointed out all kinds of interesting things while we were kayaking. She even showed us some seaweed that we stopped to much on right out of the water. We got see all kinds of sea animals/birds and we just plain had a great time. I would highly recommend Emma and Anacortes Kakak tours.

AKT is a must do! - Saw other great reviews so I made reservations for my mom and I. Shelem was our tour guide. I am writing this review not even an hour after we finished because I want to share our experience. Shelem did his regular speech of information but he is very personable and so full of knowledge. Being on the ocean in a kayak was a first for me and my mom, who is 70. Yes, get out and try new things. The beauty and awe of being such a small thing in the ocean is humbling. As we went along the tour, Shelem provided an abundance of information on wildlife both land and aquatic, fauna, and environmental workings. He made the tour interesting and fun. We saw seals, porpoises and bald eagles. Please keep in mind, wildlife have their own minds and may not always show up. The paddling is tranquil but can also be exciting going into some of the areas as you traverse through some of the choppier waters. Shelem stayed on top of everything, giving excellent instructions and navigation tips. I cannot recommend this tour enough. I also got some great locations to get photos of wildlife from Shelem. Thanks for the memories with my mom. Great tour!

WHALES, SEALS, PERFECT SUNDAY! - We did the 3 hour tour on sunday with Shelem and we were stunned!!! The wildlife we have seen was so beautiful - seals, bald eagle and even a humpback whale in the distance. Our guide Shelem was amazing, he provided us a lot of interesting information about the currents, kayaking and the wildlife. 10/10 ! We will be back! Hugo & Sarah

We loved the tour! - We had a great time kayaking with our tour guide, Emma. The views were spectacular and we were able to see several different types of marine life. I would recommend this tour to see the San Juan islands from a kayak.
