My wife and I completed a 3 day, 2 night, canoe trip with Algonquin Adventures early September.We had a fantastic time! The scenery was spectacular, we saw moose, beaver, loons and heard coyotes in the evening.The physical fitness required was moderate, we paddled for 4-5 hours on day 1 and 3 and completed 2 short paddles on day 2 as well as a 2 hour hike.Andrew was our guide and he was exceptional. His level of knowledge was great, his demeanour and professionalism was also great.Everything was organised for us, which made it an excellent adventure for those who have limited time and experience.The food was quite good, and plentiful enough.I highly recommend this trip, particularly with Andrew as the guide.

Had a great time exploring canoe lake with Algonquin Adventure Tours.They were hospitable and accommodating for our group of Muslims who came with Islamic Relief Canada.Our tour guide Andrew was a delight and was really engaging with his historical stories about Algonquin.Definitely a great and safe place to explore the park! And Islamic Relief Canada will definitely continue using their services for years to come!

We did a six hour tour with Liam, and we had a wonderful time. The tour through the park was incredibly calming. There were cool spots we stopped at. We had a picnic with sandwiches from Henrietta's pine bakery and did cliff jumping. It was definitely worth it!

We went on a 4 day camping/canoe trip last week in Algonquin Park. The guide Ben was great, always making sure everyone was looked after and comfortable. The planning of the trip was impeccable - from the scheduling to the food to the safety. It is a high end experience, and anyone looking to take a trip like this should look no further than Algonquin Adventure Tours!!

We had a beautiful 3-day-trip with Ben. Ben is a sweet young student who truly loves the outdoors. Since my daughter and I were the only participants in mid-June the trip turned into a private adventure. We saw moose, beaver, otter and many frogs and birds. Canoeing especially in the evening and the mornings was so peaceful and magical! Since the tent was already set up and Ben did all the cooking we simply had to enjoy. A perfect trip! Thank you.

Stuart was great in planning the trip for us and he had one of his guides, Andrew, take us on our 3 day trip. Andrew was professional, knowledgeable, and a great person to spend 3 days with camping. He made sure we got to spend the 3 days the way we wanted and see what we wanted to see (moose, beaver, park history) and still kept us well fed, safe, and happy. I definitely would recommend Andrew and Algonquin tours. Stuart was extremely nice, accomodating, and respectful. He was able to find halal meat for all our meals which I was truly happy about. He even found vegan marshmallows for us which is absolutely phenomenal. Thank you Stuart for making our trip so enjoyable and our first time camping a one to remember.Will absolutely recommend to friends and family.

We both enjoyed very much the guided tour provided by Stuart. It started out quite business like and professional. The safety instructions seemed confining but in the end it is for the benefit of everyone in the canoe.It is a well planned and refined tour to various parts of the lake. Good running commentary and history lessons throughout. We did manage to see loons, geese, ducks and a swimming mink. Unfortunately no moose but that's not Stuart's fault. It's a matter of luck.We heard the sound of Stuart taking pictures and thought that was for his website. Two weeks later he sent me an email with pictures he took of us. Mainly me since I was blocking my wife. Stuart took some very nice pictures. They are well considered and well composed. Very high quality. If there are two passengers there should be a way to take more pictures of the person up front. That is my only suggestion. The Henrietta's sandwich he gave us was very tasty. We took the late afternoon tour. We're considering an early morning tour in the future.Highly recommended and thanks Stuart!

What a wonderful day this was. Stuart found out we were interested in Tom Thompson and made sure our trip was full of this history. We plan on making this an annual trip.

Our three day canoe trip was one of the most memorable events this summer. My cousin who was visiting from Japan had wanted to go on this trip for about 5 years. So she is happy she has finally visited Algonquin Provincial Park. She loved paddling, encounter with wild animals including a moose, a beaver and frogs (LOL), jumping off the cliff, camp fire with marshmallows & S’mores, and of course the food.Our guide Jeremy was wonderful. He is very knowledgeable and also a great cook. He fed us delicious meals. We were never hungry!On top the family we went on the trip with were amazing. They have made our trip even more memorable.Thank you Stuart and Jeremy for this unforgettable experience.

We had such a great adventure. My daughter who is 8 years old and I enjoyed this tour so much that we booked it again and we had a fantastic time canoeing with Stew. Thank you so much. That was the first time for us being on a canoe and we felt very safe when the weather became harsh the first time.Fantastic opportunity for children and mothers who want to do some self-care and enjoy the beautiful nature, also for photographers.If you want to raise your vibration and frequency, this short trip is what you need.

My partner and I did the 6 hour guided trip a week or so ago for the second time after our first time in 2016.It's a brilliant way to spend a day - lovely scenery, plenty of wildlife around and our guide Blake is a great bloke and very knowledgeable.You'll be tired at the end of the day and leave with some great memories!

We went in second half of June on the 3h photo canoe trip. Stuart guided us expertly and brought us to some of the remoter areas of the lake where we could get close to wildlife. Even though we did not get to see a moose, we did get to observe and photograph the common loon with babies ?.
