"If you or your family is looking for the best group of professional kayakers that care about their customers, I give high reviews to Kits Kayaks of the North Shore of Vancouver. The kayak equipment was modern, easy to use and the guides were not only patient and friendly but they made the trip entertaining with their knowledge of the local area."

"Thank you Kit and your team for taking the time to show myself and my children the proper instructions for beginners. Your private outdoor school atmosphere made the lessons relaxing and easy to remember. The equipment you supplied was clean, modern and new. Dave was the best, really funny."
