Kayak Tour Reviews

George was a great guide. He found shark teeth for us when we stopped on the island. During our tour, we saw dolphins & cool birds diving for fish.

My husband and I took the 2 hour guided tour. While not completely new to kayaking , we are still beginners and larger adults. They picked kayaks that fit is comfortably and we had a wonderful time paddling around the are. Our guide, Eric is a birder and nature lover and talked at length about the local wildlife and flora. The pace was relaxed and allowed plenty of take in the gorgeous scenery. While we would eventually like to bring our own kayaks and do some exploring on our own we felt that is was important to gain some more experience and learn more about the waterways before we took off solo. Looking forward to booking another tour with Nature Adventures on our next trip.

We rented two kayaks for a two hour tour. We got out quickly and easily . Our guide Jim was very helpful, friendly, and informative. Jim took pictures of our group and sent them to our phone. We saw several local birds and a pair of very happy dolphins. The water was calm and the sites were beautiful. It was an amazing morning. Thank you Jim and NAO. 👍👍

It was a beautiful day. Elizabeth was very knowledgeable and helpful on this trip. I highly recommend booking with her.

I LOVE these guys. I go to Charleston at least twice a year and try to kayak with them on every trip. They always are so customer-friendly and go to great lengths to ensure everyone has a safe and very enjoyable kayak trip. They have so many places to take kayakers that are absolutely beautiful and filled with historical meaning. So, I strongly recommend a trip with Nature Adventures the next time your in Charleston. I guarantee you will love it!!!

I always have so much fun with these guys. The owners are great, and so are the guides. I love kayaking and exploring areas around Shem, but paddle boarding has definitely become my recent favorite. Looking forward to seeing a manatee when the water warms up again!

Excellent location, kayaks and tour guide!

Amazing experience!! Charlie was a great tour guide explaining the history to us!! We even saw many dolphins which made the experience even better :) and even got to stop to take many photos and videos on the trip!!

My husband went along with my desire to take a kayak tour this week while staying at the Shem Creek Inn. The tour was both informative and relaxing. You can’t beat two hours on the water on a sunny day. The only down side for me was that we spent too much time cruising vs paddling.

Matt was our guide this morning on Nowell Creek! Amazing knowledge of flora and fauna. Also very kind and patient with all levels of kayaking ability. Learned a lot today from Matt. Great experience.

This place was fantastic! The location is perfect and we saw some dolphins and manatees on our two hour group kayak tour. Such beautiful surroundings! Our guides George, Hazel, and Dan were all fantastic! So knowledgeable, friendly, and entertaining. I was actually really nervous and had never kayaked before but they were so reassuring. Definitely recommend them and Nature Adventure in general. They provide an amazing experience!

Great experience and you’ve got a repeat customer for life. Love the personalization of tour based on your group needs. Very accommodating and entertaining for our young kayakers. We scheduled a sunset kayak trip for our second visit to Charleston and it was amazing!!

We had a great time on the tour with Ethan. He was full of information and it was a lot of fun. We didn't see any dolphins, but it was a beautiful day. This was my first time kayaking and would do it again. The crew was very helpful and it was much easier than I expected.

What an awesome company and group of people. We had so much fun on the kayak tour. Our guide, Noelle, was amazing. Very knowledgeable of the area and a really fun person. We will definitely recommend this place to other people.

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

My husband, my 17 year old daughter and I did a two hour kayaking tour on Shem Creek. Our guide Ben was extremely knowledgeable about both the surrounding ecosystem and the history of Charleston. We thoroughly enjoyed our time on Shem Creek!

Everything about this experience was perfect. Our guide Steve was extremely knowledgeable of the area and provide a wonderful history lesson while keeping us all afloat. Looking forward to doing it again.

Loved our tour with Matthew; he was very knowledgeable about the area. He shared his passion for the water with us and was an awesome guide!

Casual kayaking through the natural beauty of Wambaw Creek. Our guide, Ryan, was fantastic...straight away it felt like we'd known him for years. Would recommend this excursion for anyone looking to break away from the beach for a few hours. Saw a sampling of local wildlife, including a few gators, one up close and personal. My kids (17 & 20) both really enjoyed the trip.

Great tour guide! Good weather. Lots of activity on the water but we still felt safe. Only downside was that we didn't see any dolphins.

We had a wonderful time kayaking for the first time in the ocean! Our guide was kind and knowledgeable about the nature in the area! Would recommend highly!

Great crew, handlers, office staff, etc. Steve was our guide for a group of 10 and he was friendly, knowledgeable and professional. We tipped them for their hard work and great attitude. Thanks for a nice day.

Thomas was an amazing guide! What a way to experience Charleston on the water, seeing nature with beautiful views and a fun and informative tour guide. I was a little nervous about kayaking, but Thomas was super welcoming and made me feel at ease. I ended up feeling really at home on the water by the end. we saw dolphins, tons of beautiful birds and wildlife, and I couldn’t stop smiling the whole tour! it was the perfect mix of active and informative and peaceful and fun.

The tour guide we had was wonderful- had so many stories to share about the history of Charleston and the nature around. Would highly recommend!
