Kayak-iti-Yat, Original Kayaking Tours of New Orleans

We had a great tour with Colin yesterday. Getting in and out was easy with the assistance of our guide. They let me borrow a wet bag just in case and provided sun screen which was necessary. We kayaked south to the Magnolia Bridge and got a great review of the history of the bayou and area. Then we reversed back and travelled along, under several bridges and around an island before heading back. We learned about the rehabilitation of the natural plants that was happening in the bayou too. Very educational and a good workout heading back against the wind. 💪. I highly recommend this local outfit.

Our guide Colin was well informed and enthusiastic. Only 4 boats made it easy to hear the history of New Orleans in general and Bayou St. John specifically. Highly recommended!

It was wonderful to start our day on the water! A welcome counterbalance to the hustle and bustle of the French Quarter. Plus we learned about the history of the area and got some great recommendations for restaurants and other things to do in New Orleans. Thank you Sara and Colin!

Loved our 2 hour paddle on Bayou Saint John. Lots of history, fun stories, tons of patience and instruction with beginners. A peaceful location, nice good quality kayaks and friendly guides. You’re not in a swamp, more like a clean canal ( for swamp you need to go farther out of town), although there are gators in there! Don’t worry you’re not at risk and it’s a gorgeous few hours to spend. Can recommend!

Kayaking the bayou was a fun, unique way to explore and learn about New Orleans. My husband and I appreciated that our guide, Rob, tailored the tour around our interests, kayak experience, and time. We would absolutely recommend this to anyone and plan to take another tour the next time we're in the Crescent City.
