1 / 10

Overview

We're one of two companies located on the Buffalo Bayou that offers kayak tours and the only one on the east side of the downtown skyline. Due to our unique position we're able to show a lot of the ecology of the Buffalo Bayou and show the issues that plague the waterway like the erosion of the shoreline.

Additionally, from our trip you'll get to see the home of the Houston Astros Minute Maid Park! You'll see the tallest building in Texas, The JP Morgan Chase Tower and the Wells Fargo Plaza home to one of the largest banking corporations in Texas. We'll also see amazing murals and artwork as we travel down Buffalo Bayou.

The Buffalo Bayou is home to a large amount of nature and beauty that is hard to find anywhere else in the concrete jungle that makes up Houston! Come join us on the water and discover Houston.
