Never before in my life have I sent away for a catalogue, bought what was offered and been over 500% satisfied. Tofino couldn’t have given us a more perfect 5 days.
The gear was very well maintained and was of very good quality. The historical anecdotes that the guide provided were very interesting and their knowledge of the flora and fauna was impressive. It was all so perfect, the weather, the guides, the location.. everything!
I just wanted to send a quick note to give you some feedback on the sea kayak trip in Baja, California. I had such an amazing time and this is largely due to the amazing guides assigned to lead us down the coast. Marcos and Lino did an excellent job of feeding us well (often with fresh fish), teaching us new techniques for wind and wave paddling and pointing out sea life. They were truly professional, and yet approachable and fun. All in all it was a fantastic trip and I would highly recommend your company to my friends.Thanks again.
Our sincerest appreciation and thanks to the absolutely marvelous guides that accompanied us and made the trip so memorable. They were always concerned about their clients’ well being and went to great lengths to make sure that we were well taken care of. Thanks you for the wonderful experience. We arrived back feeling that we had been physically challenged and felt wonderfully refreshed and exhilarated by the whole experience.
Got back yesterday from one of the more enjoyable experiences of my life: Sea of Cortez trip with Tofino. Five nights of camping on beaches couldn’t have been more pleasant. Group was great and guides Sergio and Marcos were totally professional, were great companions to explore this Baja wilderness with, and spoke excellent English. The food quality was superb and was all done for us- three square and usually hot meals a day. The only work we had to do was load and unload our own kayak (harder than it sounds at first), set up our own tent, and wash our own dish each meal. We had free time, “down time”, and plenty of activities. The amount of daily kayaking was fine, an upper-body workout without being too strenuous. Looking forward to doing a different Tofino Baja trip next year.
The Loreto to La Paz trip was absolutely stunning. Our guides, Marcos and Lino, took the very best care of us and continually prepared a fantastic spread. This was my first time paddling in Baja Sur and I couldn’t have asked for much more!
The food was fantastic, scenery wonderful, the whales and bears showed up right on cue, Ninstints was truly spiritual an amazing …. what more could I have asked for. I would return in a minute and use Tofino Expeditions without any hesitancy.
Gwaii Haanas is a magical place for sure, but no matter the natural surroundings, I’m convinced that had we been with any other guide, the experience would have been far different. Your knowledge, respect and love for that park is clear and we were all lucky enough to discover it through your eyes. On top of it, your and Chelsea’s ability to balance the needs of a diverse group of “amateur” adventure seekers against the whims of the weather and elements was noticed and appreciated by all. Man, I’m ready to go back already!
Just wanted to say what a wonderful time I had on my trip kayaking the Sea of Cortez. We were fortunate to have a small group and were given such wonderful movie star treatment that included hot coffee delivered to our tents in the a.m. and margaritas delivered in the p.m. And the food was nothing short of miraculous. The guides kept producing meals that one would expect would diminish in quality as the trip went on. We went on a hike on the fifth day and the guides pulled out a fresh watermelon. Where did THAT come from?
I just wanted to send you a short note letting you know how much my Wife Joan and I enjoyed the Queen Charlotte trip with Tofino Expeditions.
I speak from experience when I say that you “truly exceeded my expectations!” More specifically, the food, tents, camping locations and accommodations, and the relaxed, confident presence you and your associate Chelsea radiated throughout the 9 day trip further enhanced the experience.
Again, many thanks to you and Chelsea for your professionalism, experience, and your comittment to service excellence, which was delivered in spades!
I will be returning to participate in another Tofino Expedition in the near future!
