Loved the Historic Beaufort tour and learned alot about the history of the area. Very easy pace. We would have loved to have spent a couple more hours on the water as we are more experienced kayakers and some of the group were beginners. David is very warm and engaging and did a nice job of making sure to connect... More

We toured the ACE basin, led by David and Kim, on a perfect April morning. I can't say enough good things about the serene surroundings and the joy of taking in the history and habitat information that the guides shared with us as we paddled through former rice fields. I will enthusiastically echo other reviewers in recommending this activity, as... More

Seek this trip out if you are in the Beaufort area! My husband and I learned so much about the natural habitat and wildlife on our trip out of Hunting Island State Park from our awesome guides, Kim and David. I had never kayaked before, and I'm afraid that this trip has spoiled me. Beautiful weather, an easy paddle in... More

Our tour of Hunting Beach with Kim and David was one of the best memory making experiences for our family. We were blessed with great weather and the park is beautiful, however the tour guides made the trip! Kim is extremely knowledgeable about marine life and local history. We all learned so much. David is welcoming and confident. They work... More

Thanks to David and Kim for a perfect Easter day. They were very gracious to spend their holiday with all of us on the water and the weather was perfect. They obviously love what they do and it was much more intimate than going with a larger company as I have in the past. They were knowledgable and informative about... More

My husband and I went on a kayak tour with David and Kim during our Thanksgiving 2012 trip to Beaufort. We had never kayaked before, but that wasn't a problem at all, since they showed us exactly what to do. Being out on the water was both beautiful and relaxing, and it was definitely the biggest highlight of our trip.... More

Highly recommended tour company. Signed up for the Barrier Islands tour...excellent! David and Kim are extremely knowledgable and passionate about the local ecology...and it shows. Great gear, great guides. Service with a smile. Can't say enough good things. If you're in Beaufort and want to see a different side of things, take a tour!

This is a great way to spend some time on the water in Beaufort. Kim and David are very knowledgeable and fun people who make kayaking safe and easy. I really enjoyed all the fascinating tid bits of naturalist knowledge that Kim so freely shared. She was a biology teacher at one time but clearly her classroom is the earth,... More

I would definitely recommend a trip with Beaufort Kayak Tours. You are missing one of the best things about Beaufort if you don't see it from the water.

My husband and our daughter took the Ace Basin kayak tour with David this week. What a great outdoor experience! Using a map, David briefed us on the history and geography of the Basin before we started. Great instructions and tips about the kayaking technique since we all had various levels of experience. We got going and wound our way... More
