Very pleasant morning kayaking with Nik

My husband, two sons and I had a really relaxing and enjoyable time kayaking with Nik on the morning of Christmas eve, 2025. As my husband and I had no kayaking experience, we were a little apprehensive at the beginning. But Nik's reassuring presence and patient guidance quickly set our minds at ease. The information on mangroves that Nik shared with us was interesting and enlightening. When we took a short break on a little isle, we enjoyed the delicious tea and snack that Nik had brought. My husband and I would like to thank Nik for a memorable experience and for being such a wonderful guide. And my husband was truly amazed by Nik's very well-equipped van.
Best Family Experience in Okinawa!

We had the most amazing experience on this kayak tour with Nik! His communications before the tour were very kind, prompt and helpful. We were originally scheduled to go on a very windy day, but Nik asked if we would want to reschedule to a different day, which ended up being the best decision! The area we explored was beautiful, and Nik was so knowledgeable of everything. It was also nice to be able to kayak at our own pace. Our favorite part was our stop at a beach, where Nik provided us with hot tea and a local snack. We were also delighted that Nik took photos of our family for us on his GoPro! Overall, this is a must book adventure and we will cherish this memory for a lifetime!

Our excursion through the mangroves was a wonderful experience thanks to Nik! I highly recommend it! Nik shared his passion for the mangroves with us and was attentive to everything we wanted to do. Whether you're with friends, family, or even on your own, don't hesitate for a second to go with Nik — your adventure in the mangroves will be an experience you’ll never forget!

It was a great opportunity for my 13-year-old son to have a conversation in English. In the midst of the magnificent nature, they honestly asked questions and enjoyed the conversation using English, which was a waste of time. Kayaking at the confluence of the quiet waters and rivers, where no one else was, was a rare experience. Our guide, Nick, was very courteous on the day of the tour, as well as on our prior inquiries, and it was a very pleasant tour!
Most pleasant, enjoyable time.

Our guide led the tour at a comfortable pace. He was friendly with some tinge of humour and was prompt to respond to our queries before the trip. Throughout the tour, he was warm and shared details about the environment we were kayaking in, as well as travel suggestions when in Okinawa.
