Anita D.Reviewed on 08/24/18We had a great time out on the river, seeing the nightlife from a new perspective, learning some new things about Chicago & its architecture, and getting in a little exercise too!
The guides did a great job keeping us aware of being safe on the river, and providing informed commentary.

So I decided to push my girlfriend's comfort level and do something different to celebrate our 1 year anniversary and being out on the river at night in a tandom kayak will absolutely go down as a top 2 date! One of our guides Ashley was so informative, helpful, and nonjudgemental. Just an overall pleasant person to be around. The whole crew has mastered the art of being present and available yet become invisible when appropriate. We both felt completely safe on the water and have already invited both her parents and mine to come enjoy this amazing adventure together mid August. Sorry this was long winded, we just had so so much positive feedback to share with our Dabble world. TRULY THANKYOU for making this adventurous boy friend look really really good!!! I am looking forward to spending time with y'all next month.

what a magnificent time out on the river. all of the people working there were very friendly and fun- and knowledgeable. we received a solid orientation and reviewed safety before we headed out. the views of the skyline from a kayak are breathtaking

This is such a fun class and a unique way to see Chicago. We've all been downtown but you get to see the beautiful architecture and newly renovated Riverwalk from the water. I would definitely recommend the Sunset Paddle ride for a fun night!

The sunset paddle is a nice experience (as nice as you can get on the disgusting Chicago river but I digress!). The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. There was always a staff member at the back of the group to ensure that nobody was left behind. You don't need to have any previous kayaking experience to enjoy this class. There's some instruction at the beginning but it's easy to get the hang of it. This class is a fun way to get active and be outdoors.
