The ride is not very hard and the whole thing is on a wide path. I'd recommend it to anyone looking to take in some nature while visiting Seattle. I will say that the ride is a little long, so I do recommend padded shorts if you don't ride a ton. Lastly, their communication was amazing from the time of the booking all the way through to the day of the tour. Top notch tour provider for sure.

My fiance and I were in Seattle for a few days pre Alaska cruise and decided to spend an afternoon…read moretouring around Alki. I had been very briefly before with my best friend and I knew I would love to see more of the island. I reserved a pair of bikes online beforehand from Alki Kayak Tours as they are quite literally, right next to the ferry drop off on Alki. When we arrived, the bikes were ready to go and we were able to take off within minutes. We spent a few hours riding around the island, stopping for ice cream and to snag a beer at one of the local breweries. It was such a fun way to take in the beautiful views of downtown Seattle, the bay, the gorgeous homes, and Mt. Rainier. We were about 30 minutes late in returning our rentals and they didn't charge us or even really care and returning the bikes was seamless. I highly recommend this as an activity and would 100% do it again!

Felix and Fong were great to work with and were able to fit our group that kept varying in size (from 25 to 12 to 13 on the actual day). Note: They have multiple boats and also have volunteers and other team members that were training to help coach and possibly paddle if needed. So they are ready to accommodate any group size. Day of: parking was easy near the Kenmore Airport and free on the weekends! We easily found the Seattle Flying Dragons crew. They provided each person a life vest and bottle of water, and locked our personal belongings in their shed. We started with some on shore teaching about dragon boat history and the team's background. Then we got into the boat and learned some techniques close to shore. As we paddled (not rowed) our way into Lake Union, we were provided some more technical training and different types of drills. We were never asked to do more than we could physically but were challenged and encouraged. It was such a positive team building exercise. We went by the house boats and all the way to Gasworks before sprinting back to the starting dock. All in all, we felt accomplished and proud of what we could do in an hour. I highly encourage anyone to try this at least one. And no, you dont need to know how to swim. Even though at times we felt like we were about to capsize, it was all fine and safe. Costed: per the instructions on their website we donated $25 per person. They are a 501c3 so it is tax deductible - print the pdf receipt.

It was intimidating at first because I had never tried the sport before and my mind, at the time, was swirling with doubts & hesitations about meeting new people after hearing so much about the infamous "Seattle Freeze." However I knew I had to give it shot and see what dragon boating and, moreover, the seattle freeze were all about! I recall on my first day of practice, despite my uncertainties, I was immediately greeted by several paddlers who were thrilled to see a newbie and did not miss a beat to take me under their tutelage. The first day was tough, as with any new skill, however, it was amazing how fast one can pick up the "stroke" after only a few consistent paddling practices. Today, I can confidently say that I have met some of my closest friends through dragon boating, not to mention the lasting relationships that I have made with my teammates. It's really the people that make this sport so AWESOME! If you are contemplating about coming out to practice, I highly encourage you to give it a shot! You will find people of all ages, skill levels and personalities. Some are fair weather paddlers (folks who come out during the summer) while others are hardcore winter paddlers- the solitude that comes with being the only boat on the water is something that is totally worth the experience! There is usually plenty of parking in the main lot just outside of Kenmore Air. Do not park in the gravel lot directly adjacent to the terminal unless you check with whoever is leading practice that day. Usually that lot is available during the winter when Kenmore Air shuts down earlier due to the lack of sunlight. If you need to use the restrooms, go up (north) along the parking lot to the nearest Starbucks where you'll find restrooms in the main lobby of the AGC building. Paddles & lifejackets will be provided on site. Additionally, you will need to sign a waiver if it's your first time, minimum age is 12 (guardian signature required for paddlers between 12 & 17 years ago). If you are interested in competing, the majority of the races take place during the summer and into the fall, however, occasionally you'll find opportunities outside that time period. Check out the website for additional info. HAVE FUN! Practices: Monday and Wednesday evenings from 6-7:30pm Saturday mornings from 8-10am Sunday afternoons from 3-4:30pm

While most tours are very rushed with the 10-15 minute stops, it wasn't like that with Lucas. Each stop felt like a perfect amount of time and we got to see everything thanks to the good weather. We also had a good group where everyone was on time and personable so it was like Lucas and his happy ducklings. A great 12 hours was spent and honestly, I felt energized rather than tired after this tour. Definitely would recommend Lucas for anyone looking for a Mt. Rainier tour.

The Shutter Tour of Snoqualmie Falls and the City of Seattle went absolutely amazing. From start to finish, we had a wonderful experience. Dale was our tour guide and he was THE BEST! He was hilarious and entertaining, making a ton of jokes and providing insightful commentary. He's also a photographer, so he showed us many tips and tricks on how to get amazing photos at our different stops. He even offered to take photos, had water bottles and granola bars, and was just so kind. The tour in itself, showcased and highlighted the many attractions and wonders of Seattle. There were a bunch of stops and you really get your money's worth visiting everywhere. My partner and I's favorite stops were Snoqualmie Falls and Kerry Park. Both were just breathtaking and made us fall more in love with the city. I highly suggest booking this tour, it was such a smooth and fun experience!

My friends and I went to Moss Bay on Lake Union to rent paddle boards for a sunny afternoon, but…read morethe experience was completely ruined by the poor condition of the gear and the unorganized staff. When we got our paddle boards, several of them looked heavily weathered, and the one I was given actually had a slimy, mildew-like buildup around the grip pad and edges. It was pretty gross to handle for an entire hour on the water. When we asked the staff at the dock if we could swap it out, they acted like we were being a massive inconvenience and brushed it off, claiming it was just normal lake wear. For the price they charge per hour, you expect equipment that is actually washed and maintained, especially items you're standing on with bare feet. Between the rundown gear, the chaotic check-in process, and the indifferent customer service, it just wasn't worth it. There are plenty of other spots around Seattle to rent from I'd skip this one.
