I never give anyone a bad review. However, I would be remiss if I didnt give the review deserved. I am a single father with two adult children. No kayak experience. I specifically asked if the water was moving faster than usual and they response "not too bad." We were driven to the drop site with another family, a father with a 10 year old and 15 year old. They were going to take a canoe and a kayak. Once in the water my sons Kayak was leaking very badly, , the river was swollen to the gill from heavy rain and deceptively strong. With the flimsy life vests there is no way any of us would have come out if we went in the water. I am certain we would have drown. God and luck were on our side because we made it. No other boats , people or a place to stop except one kayak 1/2 mile from the boat launch. Sign the waiver and take your chances!! I asked both my kids if they in good conscious could have pushed us or the family behind us in the water. They both said No!!!! I hope to god the people behind us changed their mind because I never saw them on the river and I looked for them several times. The ocean puts up red flags when there is a rip tide. However, if you sign the waiver anyone can take a canoe or kayak. Final instructions, stay to the right, be back by 6, park you kayak after the bridge and walk to your car. They wouldnt even refund the money for the leaking kayak number 7 if you want a miserable time. Sincerely, Michael

Wait times were intolerable, was forced to wait 2 hours at the site while waiting for booking. In itself, that would have been fine. The end of the trip was much crazier. Once we got to the pick up site we saw other companies with many vans and trips constantly ferrying people and boats to and from the site. We asked about this company, and without fail, every single other company said "Those guys are notorious for making their boaters wait." How right the competition turned out to be. My father-in-law waited with our canoes for pick up, while the rest of us got a separate ride home. We were told someone was on their way at 4:00 PM. The ride itself is only 30 minutes. My father in law didnt get back until 8:45 PM! It take them nearly 5 hours to get him and to drop him off. We worried something happened but couldnt reach anyone at the company, and after a long overnight trip his cell phone battery had died. Would not go with this company again, it isnt worth the massive wait times and lack of communication.

We canoed with Kittatinny Canoes from River Beach to Dingmans base and it was very beautiful. No words can describe it. I was able to get my camera out and get very close shots of bald eagles that nest around this area. The river is calm in this section which makes it easy for families. Fishing is also popular in this section.

I rented kayak for a day trip down the Delaware river. Their service was excellent, they picked me up timely at the end point. Great location, great people, highly recommended.
