    Phoenix was great. So professional, friendly and knowledgeable.
    Our party of five didn't make it out in time but had a blast and can't wait to try another room!

    What a beautiful 1.5 hour sail. Brandon and Margaret made us feel so welcome, like family. Beautiful boat. Would recommend this experience!

    This was a blast! Highly recommended doing this. We got the hang of it very quickly. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes though. Such a fun way to see the city. We would do this again in a heartbeat.

    I did the Georges Island Tour with Kira and loved my experience. I was alone with her and we had the opportunity to chat a lot. She shared very pertinent information about the history of Halifax. I had a great time.

    Ryan was perfect! We had such a great day with him. We loved that he was so passionate and knowledgeable about his hometown. We were almost ready to move there after hearing his love for Halifax! We asked for specifics to our day and everything was covered. Even when we expressed a desire to have some fresh fish for lunch and not at a sit-down restaurant, he found a perfect side of the road spot to eat that was delish! We had physical limitations for some of our group and he adjusted everything so all could participate. He shared a wealth of information with us about Halifax and it was interesting to listen to. He even answered our barrage of questions! His ride was comfortable and we appreciated that he had a microphone so we could hear him perfectly (a few of us have hearing challenges). One of the most memorable experiences in our day was a lovely hike to some beautiful scenery and him playing his guitar and singing local folk songs. He's incredibly talented and meant to be a tour guide. The whole day and experience is a memory engrained in our hearts forever! Truly would use him again in a heartbeat!

    We had an amazing adventure with Ed and the seals. Ed is so nice and such a great guide not only in kayaking but Halifax and Nova Scotia as well. He is so respectful of the wildlife while still providing a wonderful experience. Top notch!

    East Coast Outfitters offers four-hour kayak trips with Adam as the guide. Adam is the consummate professional. He is a master of kayaking and makes learning the techniques easy. His business has a wide variety of equipment suitable for all customers.

    Adam is genial and warm. He welcomes everyone and understands what we might like to see and do. His approach to a range of skills and abilities is very inclusive so you should not hesitate to sign up for his trips. They depart from a location about 30-minutes out of Halifax so you get the added enjoyment of driving through the countryside on your way.

    I recommend Adam's services highly.
