Frequently Asked Questions

Our tours are designed for all experience levels, including beginners. Our knowledgeable guides provide instruction and ensure a safe and enjoyable experience on the water.

We recommend bringing sunscreen, bug spray, a hat, sunglasses with a strap, water shoes or sandals, a reusable water bottle, and a change of clothes in case you get wet. Don't forget your sense of adventure!

Yes, children are welcome on our tours. Children as young as 5 have kayaked solo. Children under 5 are recommended that they sit in the kayak with their parents or with your guide. We have 3 kayaks that are only 8 feet long and perfect for kids.

Your safety is our priority. In the event of bad weather or unsafe conditions, we may reschedule your tour or provide a full refund. We will keep you informed and work with you to find the best solution.

300 lbs is the maximum capacity of our largest kayaks.

You are welcome to bring your own kayak if you prefer. Please let us know in advance so we can accommodate your equipment. Sit on top kayaks are easier to get in and out of and sit a little higher in the water, which is handy on the river.

Absolutely! If you have a favorite life jacket that fits you perfectly, definitely bring it with you to use. We have life jackets in a full range of sizes for you too.

Yes, we love group bookings and can accommodate group bookings for special occasions or corporate events. Contact us to discuss your specific requirements and we'll help arrange a memorable experience on the water. Currently, we can accommodate groups as large as 13 people at a time. We have hosted larger groups who have split up and half have kayaked while the other half enjoyed our fire pit area and bush trails, and then we switched.

Usually 2 people is our minimum. If you are not part of a group and as an individual you would be willing to join another group, contact Wendy and she will be able to set it up at a time that works for you.

Yes, safe and secure parking for your vehicles is right in our farm yard. We exit the river just below where your vehicle will be parked, so you end up where your vehicle is parked.

We have a washroom in our shop, and encourage everyone to use the washroom prior to starting your kayaking adventure. While we are on the water, if you need to go to the bathroom, we will find a spot on the river bank to let you "find a spot outside". The washroom in our shop is located close to where you exit the water after your kayak adventure.

Safety is our top priority. Our guides are experienced in kayaking and water safety. We provide life jackets, first aid kits, and conduct safety briefings before each tour to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.

Reservations can be made directly through our website or by texting 204-648-4401 or on messenger to Crocus Hill Kayaking. We recommend booking in advance to secure your group's preferred date.

Currently we can accommodate up to 13 people per kayak adventure.

Yes, when you are in our shop we have free wifi. The cell service is a bit sketchy, in the rest of the yard, and along the kayak adventure river route.

When you are on the river, usually they aren't too bad. When you are walking in the tall grass to get in and out of the river they can be a bother, so we suggest you apply bug spray. Speaking of tall grass, you will want to do a check for wood ticks after we are done. If you step into the mud in the river, chances are you may also have to check yourself for leeches.

We accept cash on site. We accept e-transfers. You are able to pay by credit card on our website.

Sure thing! Contact Wendy and she with get you a physical certificate or e-certificates are available on our website.
