In total the experience was around 50 minutes, well short of the advertised 75-90m. Given we had a few older folks who required very involved help getting in and out of the kayaks, I'd imagine we weren't on the shorter end of rides Given the introduction, I expected a lot of interesting information related to the plants and wildlife in the area, but our guides were mostly just along for the ride. Overall, id strongly recommend looking elsewhere for interpretive paddle experiences in the area, especially given the price point

The "Learn to Kayak" whitewater kayaking course has only improved since last year. This year…read morethey've dropped the whitewater rescue component, where we practiced rescuing each other from the rapids in the park with a rope - this took a long time and although interesting in a way was sort of boring and not something new kayakers would be doing. Instead, they've added surfing, which is what it sounds like, trying to surf facing upstream on the bottom of a rapid, and rollover practice. The other skills training components remain but also seemed trimmed down and more fun - practicing ferrying at the bottom of a rapid, for example, instead of in the middle of nowhere where the current was not very strong. The food is also a little improved... still sandwiches, but also more fruit, including watermelon, and a wider selection of cookies. If you're tired of just kayaking in flat water, give this class a try!

We ended up leaving a couple of hours after that. The water is amazing though and there's a lot of different entry spots into the water. One trail to drive down might require 4x4 though.

We have searched all over San Antonio and the internet for someone to help us without much success. We were in the San Marcos area and discovered TG Canoes and Kayaks. Justin helped us locate parts for some old Kayaks we had, helped us find two new kayaks that fit our needs perfectly. Justin even recommended two kayaks that were less expensive than the original ones we were looking at. I also felt their prices were very competetive compared with other kayaks we had previously looked at. Justin has provided incredible customer service as he has followed up with us concerning some of the parts we ordered for our old kayaks. I highly recommend TG for any kayak services or purchases.
