I highly recommend this adventure. I am Doctor from south America and enjoy outdoor activities. Of all the places I have visited, Algonquin is my favourite. I have been canoeing and camping with this company two times. The natural park is impressive, with plenty of beautiful landscapes and adventures. The flora, animals, lakes, and rivers are unique. The guides are very well trained and know the area well and how to find specific spots to see moose, turtles, bluejays, beavers, and fish. The peace you can feel during the trip is difficult to describe. You spend a lot of energy during the day and the afternoon, and at night you sleep in the middle of a peaceful place. I recommend some Incredibles things to do during the trip, like the jumping place, the sauna, the rapids, the rivers, and walking through the forest. Finally, the food is something you enjoy with barbecues and high-quality food. If you are new or a camping expert, you will enjoy it. Do not hesitate to take this trip. It pays off in satisfaction.

Thank you very much. You are so kind. I remember both of our trips very well. I remember the foggy sunrise and the 4 moose we saw during the day. I won't forget our midnight paddle with your nephew. I hope to see you one day again in a canoe. I was lucky to meet you. Baz

Thank you so much. The moose was so nice to see on the second day. It just came out of nowhere. I don't know if I have seen someone enjoy a hot sauna and then go swimming in the lake as much as you. Thank you for all your hard work collecting wood and helping with the food preparation. paddling at night was also awesome. It was like there were a million stars out that night. Thanks :) Baz - Lead Guide

Overall a wonderful experience with my 14 year old son. It was our first time camping. We were overwhelmed by the canoe trip to our campsite on arrival day, and back our final day. The canoeing our 2nd day was much easier, allowing us time to enjoy the paddle, and nature. Wish we would have done some exploring/sight seeing on land, not only by canoe. Food was amazing!

Definitely recommend!

My experience to Algonquin Park was wonderful and unique. I was in Canada for a work experience and I choose to spend a weekend into the nature. Algonquin Nature Adventures was the perfect choice: I had the chance to fulfill into the nature of this beautiful park and to enjoy the company of a great group. Baz is amazing and he makes you enjoy every aspect of the experience! I really recommend them!
The canoeing is funny, food is very good and sleeping is super comfy! Baz and Kristina really makes your trip enjoyable, from the beginning with an efficient communication to the camping setup and sharing stories and experiences from the park they know very well.

I enjoyed the trip. The food was really good. Kristina is a good cook. The food had good variety. it was my first time experience of outdoor Camping and I was less tensed since the set up, food, water was already taken care of. The pick up and drop went smooth. Baz is a really experienced camper and he single handedly guided us through the entire process. He patiently answered all of the questions we had. He kept the whole trip on time . We saw the sunset and the clear night sky . We saw blue Heron, loon. I had a really good time in the group. I would hope to do this tour again next year..

Baz and Kristina were excellent both in communication and making us feel welcome and relaxed. Baz interacted well with our boys aged 13 and 15 and they loved helping him prepare the fire and cook food. The food was delicious and plentiful. The boys highlight was the cliff jumping. Mine was the chipmunks and snapping turtles near the camp which were interactive and delightful to watch. Saw beavers swimming. Mosquito were ok at this time of year and the weather was perfect. We were lucky to go at the same time as another European family who were lovely. Time went so fast and I would highly recommend. Thank you for a wonderful few days.

From the start the experience with Algonquin Nature Adventures was exactly what we needed. The booking process was really easy with great communication from Kristina and full information provided so we knew what to expect, what to take with us, etc.
The paddle to our camp was approx 3 hours including a short portage and it was a reasonably leisurely paddle where we could get used to the canoe. All of us had minimal paddling experience and none of us had any aches despite paddling for roughly the same amount each day of our trip.
The meals were filling and we never went short of food.
Baz was amazing. He's friendly and couldn't have done anything to make the trip more enjoyable, He knows the lakes like the back of his hand and where to go to try to see the wildlife. He made sure we had a wonderful time - you can join in as much as you like and you get out of the trip what you put in. We went swimming in the lake when we weren't paddling but you could also spend time just chilling if that was what you wanted. The sunrise paddle was absolutely magical.
Overall we had an incredible few days and have raved about the trip to everyone we know. We were gutted to just miss out on a moose sighting despite trying on a number of times - maybe next time Baz.

Thank you so much. I had a great time too. You and everyone else were so helpful and energetic. We all worked well as a team. October is my favorite time of the year because of the sunrises. Meeting you and everyone else makes my job not feel like work. June and July is a good time to see moose in the park ... hopefully next time .... but if you ever see a moose before you return to Algonquin, please send me a picture. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart. :) Please keep in touch.

My sister and I spent 4 days/3 nights with Baz and it was an unforgettable experience we will talk about for years to come. Kristina was extremely helpful in planning our trip and responded to every question in depth. Baz and Kristina have thought of everything ! All you need is yourself, some suitable clothes and an appetite for adventure. We had delicious meals every day, everything from steak cooked on an open fire to cinnamon rolls in the morning. Within hours Baz you feel like you are on a camping trip with close friends. Algonquin National Park is a magical place and exploring it with a knowledgeable guide like Baz makes it even more memorable. We were also very fortunate to see moose each day, which was a huge bucket list item for us. Baz has spent years perfecting his trips to make them absolutely perfect - we couldn't find a single fault in this experience. I will definitely be doing this trip again next time I visit Canada and I would recommend it to absolutely everyone of all ages looking for an authentic Canadian Camping Experience. Thanks so much again Baz and Kristina !!!

Thank you so much. I had so much fun with both of you ... our group was like a family. I'll remember our trip because it was my birthday as well. The sunrise, the beaver, and just paddling with you guys will be in my memory. At least half of the credit is to Kristina and her hard work and dedication. I will be so happy to see you again in the future in Algonquin Park. Thank you again.

Thank you soooo much for your kind words. You guys were great. I knew it was your first time backcountry camping and canoeing but you guys all did a great job. You were so helpful collecting wood, cooking, and preparing the sauna. I loved our outdoor wilderness sauna and the canoe ride at sunrise was just unbelievable. I want to thank you for bringing your wonderful spirit .. all three of you guys. You guys were soo funny around the campfire. I always love meeting new people and and I learned a lot from you guys as well. Thank you again and please come again with all your friends.

Thank you very much. I had a very good time on our trip too. I am very happy you had a good time on the trip. I knew it was your first time here in the park. Thank you for all your help. The sunrise, the stars, the sauna ... it was all perfect. We had some pretty unusual campfire conversations ... so funny. Thank you again and I hope one day I can see you in a canoe again. .
