We booked the trip about 2 hours before it was scheduled to depart (10 AM on a Tuesday, late August) and ended up with Tim as our private guide, since no one else had booked that time. The whole experience was outstanding. The 3 hour trip felt like the perfect length for us. We have kayaked before, but only casually. Tim was able to give us the perfect paddling tips quickly so that we were paddling efficiently from the start. I cannot say enough about how impressed we were with Tim's level of knowledge. From history, geology, ecology, biology. . .Tim really knows his stuff. The whole tour felt conversational but fun, like an exploration. Tim was excited to point out seals, a Stellar Sea Lion, the bulb kelp ecosystem, and sea stars. I would do the exact same trip again in a heartbeat.
