Additional Information

Our Picnic Paddle is a 6 mile adventure great for couples, families and friends. Choose from a single kayak, tandem or even a triple! After a brief orientation, your guide will lead your group along the shore of Yellowstone Lake, escorting you to West Thumb Geyser Basin. We take multiple breaks at scenic points along the route to stretch our legs and experience the grandeur of the lake. After touring the Geyser Basin, where dozens of geothermal features are visible above and below the water’s surface, we will return along the same route, stopping for a picnic lunch and a chance to explore along the shore of the lake, arriving back at Grant Marina around 2PM. Return time may vary depending on group size, weather, fitness, etc.

Just book already! - Highly recommend this kayak tour! The views were amazing and our tour guide, Dillon, had a wealth of information about the park. The beach picnic provided was great too!

Must do! - A fantastic way to see a unique part of Yellowstone. Dylan and Maddie told us interesting facts and prepared a beautiful charcuterie board for lunch. I would highly recommend this tour.

West Thumb Geyser Basin Kayak - I was lucky to join this tour, as a solo, I slipped in with two other groups.Tiffany, Alan and Maddie took us along the shore to see the natural wonders at West Thumb Geyser Basin. The guides were fun and knowledgeable. The spread was generous and delicious! Hot coffee/tea with snacks for the paddle out. The lunch was splendid on a beach of onyx and sintered sand. It was The best choice I could've made for a marvelous morning! Don't forget your sunscreen!

Awesome tour! - Such a wonderful trip! Maddi was an awesome guide and so knowledgeable about the area. She had coffee and a snack ready when we arrived and took amazing pictures of us throughout the tour. The lunch on the beach was a perfect conclusion to the tour before we paddled the last bit back to the marina. Would definitely recommend this tour and having Maddi as your guide!

Most awesome enjoyable moments in Yellowstone. - This was such a wonderful all around experience. Natty was great, knowledgeable about the paddling, the lake and the park. He was easy to talk to and friendly. We had a great group and Natty spent the time to engage with and get to know a little about everyone on our trip. One of my friends was a bit hesitant at first having issues with balance in the kayak, Natty offered a variety of options and was able to work with him through the issue without giving up. My friend was able to paddle. The lunch spread was incredible and impressive. Travel bocci ball was a plus! We had so much fun, it was well worth the price and more. What a peaceful fun way to see some of the park. We were also very appreciative of the care he took with the natural features of the park and the animals, ensuring that none of us got close enough to do any harm. He is a great steward of the park and all its wonderful aspects.
