Levi is humble, grounded, and genuine good person. His energy made my day and brought the hike to life with his music, humor and compassion for nature. I had a great time and wish more tours were this fun.

This was one of the highlights of our trip. It was much more relaxing compared to some of the other more adventurous tours we did. Very easy/beginner friendly. Kayaking was not hard at all and the hike is also very easy. Of all the tours we’ve ever done anywhere Levi was our favorite tour guide ever. What a great guy!!

What the website doesn’t mention is that the hiking trails will be slushy and muddy with the rains (in January). We went slipping and sliding (and falling) along the way. Thankfully it was soft mud and no bugs, leeches or other dangerous fauna!
Jonathan Cobb was an amazing guide.
The river for Kayaking is 2 miles each way and can be tiring with the winds. So be prepared!

It was a beautiful hike along with the kayak up the river. Breathtaking. Our guide Nathaniel was amazing. Very professional and knowledgeable individual. Make sure everybody was saying as we adventured.
