We were two Belgian families with no experience both with canoeing and camping, but our guide Mason ('amazing Mason') took us under his wings. It resulted in a great trip (good food, nice views and some adventure). Thanks a lot!

The trip was outstanding....the hotel was great, the guides for our Auroras hunting nights were pleasant, knowledgeable and fun. We got Auroras in the first five minutes on night one and we were thrilled!
