Hi Dave,Have you had the trip to Antartica yet? I am looking forward to hearing about it and seeing some pictures.Safe paddlingPhil
I had the most enjoyable few hours kayaking around Lake Durras today. I had originally planned to do this tour in a few days time but something came up and I decided to change my plans. Phil and Carolyn were more than accommodating in fitting me in last minute. They are both very friendly and knowledgeable with regards to kayaking and the surrounding areas around Lake Durras. Having not done a lot of kayaking before, Phil gave me a very comprehensive run down on how to kayak and all the safety aspects. He also gave me a run down of where all the shallow parts of the lake exist and what to do if you get beached. All in all I would highly recommend this tour to anyone. The scenery is beautiful and the professionalism of Phil and Carolyn is second to none.
Thanks Donna, it was a lovely paddle. I am glad you enjoyed it as much as I did.
Hi Stephanie,Thanks for the review, it was a lovely day for a paddle. Glad that we could help you finish off your conference with some fresh air and sunshine.CheersPhil and Carolyn
We have had some beautiful evening paddles this summer, glad we could share one with you guys. Have to admit paddling back in the dark under the stars is my favorite time on the lake.
Hi Elisabeth, Thanks for you kind review, glad you enjoyed your kayaking experience.
Hi Annemarie,Thanks for the review, glad that you enjoyed your stay in Durras. Look forward to seeing you again.Take CareCarolyn and Phil
Agree with all the other comments. We went for a family sea trip and found Phil to be professional and friendly. He would be my definition of the ideal guide - not overbearing, informative, easy going yet professional. If you're a family of novices like us with a range of ages keen to try something active then we recommend Phil and his company. Definitely added to the experience.Highly recommended.
We went on a 3 hour guided tour of Durras lake as my birthday treat. Phil was incredibly patient with us as we were novices in a kayak and not very good at navigating! He was also great with our 2 boys (age 7 and 10) and judged well how to keep up their enthusiasm etc. I learnt a lot about the local area history and it was so incredibly peaceful out on the lake. Next time perhaps we will try it out on the ocean?!
I really loved this activity it was lots of fun and the guide was fantastic very informative and helpful we had a ball
