Our kayak tour with Keats (our tour guide) was everything we hoped for and more! We had never kayaked before and Keats made us feel super comfortable. My one daughter was quite nervous but Keats put her at ease and within a few minutes of being on the water she was laughing and having a great time. The sunrise tour offered a gorgeous, serene setting and really allowed us to take in the beauty of the surrounding area. Keats is very knowledgeable about the ecosystem and taught us quite a bit along the way. If you are even considering a kayak tour then Trailblaze Adventure is who you want with you along the way! Our next trip to North Myrtle Beach will definitely include another excursion! Thank you for giving us this wonderful memory on our family vacation. πβοΈ
I had inquired about renting bikes for the day to ride on the beach. While thinking about that, the owner mentioned the kayak tour to an island. Iβm so glad he did! My entire family enjoyed the trip to from and on the island. Also, Meara, our guide was super nice and informative about the wildlife in the area and gave us a great tour. It was well worth the price and we would definitely do it again!
My boyfriend and I took a short trip to myrtle and wanted to do the various activities offered. There are a lot of companies and tour options available for kayaking and paddle boarding but trailblaze adventure should be the one you go with; our experience was absolutely delightful. Keats our tour guide was helpful and encouraging and knew a lot about the area and helped me greatly as a first time paddle boarder. I was nervous and unsure Iβd get the hang out of it but he was patient and offered tips throughout our journey. I ended up loving paddle boarding! We took the Regular salt marsh tour which was very peaceful and beautiful to be paddle through. We took a break at a little beach and got to walk around and explore and he even offered us cold water. We would love to the private island tour if we ever come back to myrtle beach!
So I have never been in a kayak before and was beyond nervous. Keats was absolutely amazing! He was calm and helpful and walked me through how to use the paddles and steer. He stayed near and talked to you throughout the whole experience. We stopped at some wetlands before heading to Waites Island. He showed us some of the wildlife there as well. We had a beautiful paddle back as the sun was setting. He is awesome to talk to as you are experiencing the beautiful scenery. I cannot wait to go back!!
Always love our experience with Trailblaze. Went to Waites Island on a kayak this time. Was a great experience. Keats is an excellent guide and very personable. Would recommend this company to anyone for kayaking or golf cart rentals. Will definitely be back next time!!! Thanks guys!!!
We had an amazing afternoon kayaking through the marsh with Keats. It was a gorgeous setting, with birds, jumping fish & a white sandy beach. Please be sure to include this adventure in your vacation plans. You will not be disappointed!
We really enjoyed riding the bikes around, Cherry Grove. Bikes were in excellent condition and dropped off at the designated time. Weβll definitely rent bikes again next year.
We booked a kayak tour for a group of 7 people. Keats, our tour guide, took us on a wonderful guided tour of the marsh and bay. We kayaked to an island and were able to take a nice break and walk around before making the return trip. Keats was really knowledgeable about the area and always took the opportunity to point out the local wildlife. We had a wonderful time and would 100% recommend for anyone visiting the area!
Keats was such a fun guide. His gentle nature, as well as his knowledge of π¦nature, π made our kayak and paddle board trip the best one so far!No question, we will use (AND RECOMMEND) Trailblaze Adventures North Myrtle Beach each year we visit from NY. Thanks for the ice cold water Keats. π¦We loved the pictures you took and texted us after the adventure. Great price as well. π
Awesome time on the bay and marsh with our tour guide, Keats. This was my first kayaking experience and it was amazing. Our group stopped by an island where we were able to walk around and even got a short paddle boarding session in with Keats. Definitely would recommend booking a tour with Trailblaze Adventure if youre in the area.
If youre overwhelmed by all the choices offered to those looking to paddle board or kayak in Myrtle Beach, trust Trailblaze Adventure to guide you safely and patiently.If youre on the fence about floating in the ocean in the first place, paddling to beaches only accessible by watercraft is a relaxed endeavor suitable for all experience levels and abilities, offering rewards of larger shells and even sand dollars on shores not scoured by beach traffic accessible on foot.Trailblaze Adventure is a locally owned business run by a father and son duo who just want to be outside while allowing others to do the same. They take pride in sharing their love of nature with visitors who want to experience the epic panoramas unique to Myrtle Beach. For that reason, Keats is the only tour guide we could have imagined for our group due to his knowledge of the ecosystem, his tranquil demeanor, and his cosmopolitan influences.Cmon, book your ticket to see unique places on your next visit with a nature lover who will show you aspects of the coast that otherwise you might not appreciate. Take snacks and a camera, and let Trailblaze Adventure do the rest.
Amazing experience for the whole family! We had so much fun. Rare to find such a professional, high quality service. The owners, a father-son duo were super accommodating, friendly and very well organized. The gear was immaculate and they thought of everything. We did a Kayak trip to a private island - we enjoyed the tranquility and peacefulness. Meara, the tour guide was very pleasant, so calm and easy-going. The kids had a blast, too. This was not our first experience with Trailblaze Adventure, we previously had rented golf carts a few times, and were impressed with their professional service and flexibility. We will definitely come back for more! Maybe the paddle boards next? Thank you Keats for some great memories. Weiterhin alles Gute - wir hatten grossen Spass!
In the 20-some years weβve been coming to MB, we never this kayaking experience existed! It was really great. Keats, our guide, was awesome. Super personable and shared lots of interesting knowledge about the marsh area. The cost for the 3.5 he trip was so reasonable and what I loved the most is there are no hidden fees. Our guide took photos on his phone as we were actively kayaking and sent them to everyone after the tour. No extra cost of $30-50 for a thumb drive of pictures! It was a really nice way to spend the morning.
What amazing kayak adventure! Iβve never kayaked before and was made to feel completely comfortable. Life vests were available in every kayak. The guides were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and skilled. The tour was a leisurely (mild effort) paddle down the waterway to an uninhabited island. It was crowded the day we were there with many other kayak tours in the water around us. Our tour included a stop at a sandbank marsh area where we saw sand crabs and had a great discussion with our knowledgeable guides. This was great, because all the other tours went straight to the island, so we had two adventures in one! Then, when we got to the island, it was a gorgeous, natural beach with gently rolling waves. Our group strolled along the beach, stepping in and out of the warm water, in silent awe of the natural beauty around us. This trip was with every penny and more. I highly recommend this company when you are visiting North Myrtle Beach or Myrtle Beach. You will go back to your house/ hotel relaxed, wonderfully tired and grateful for the experience. Thank you, Keats and Meara!!!
This was an excellent way to see parts of the coast you wonβt see on the normal vacation beats. Great value and good company.Keats made sure we arrived at the boat launch by texting us beforehand. When we arrived he greeted us by name even though we had not met face to face. Our guide, Mira (?), was confident, caring and able. She was able to answer all our questions along the way.Both she and Keats did all the heavy lifting that was necessary for the kayaks. All the equipment was in good shape including the life vests, paddles and kayaks. They even snapped a few photos along the way and sent them to us.Overall this was a great way to spend an evening leading into the sunset.
We had the best time. We are going to do this again. Getting to go to a private island and swim and hang out for an hour was great. We stopped half way through to rest and walk around for a few minutes. They were providing facts about crabs on the little island we stopped on and picking them to show everyone how to hold them. It was great.
The trip with Keats was great! It was beautiful, and he was great at teaching how to kayak, and even gave a little paddle board lesson for us since there were just 2 of us
We loved our tour with Trailblazer Adventure. Our guide Meara was awesome! We had done first time kayakers and she was very patient with all of us. Meara was also very knowledgeable about our surroundings and share all sorts of information with us. I higher recommend this adventure!
We absolutely loved our kayak adventure tour with Trailblaze. My husband and I took our daughters, 8 & 6, on the tour with us and it was perfect for the entire family. Our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable, and the entire experience was great. We would highly recommend it to anyone!
Went sup boarding with 4 kids under 10. They took care of everything, guide was amazing and even took time to show kids the wildlife. Although they were all a little bit scared at first by the end they were super happy and having a great time. Cant recommend enough! Youll have a great time.
We had a lot of fun on our kayak adventure. The staff were very knowledgeable about the local wildlife and did a great job interacting with the adults and the kids on the tour. Would recommend to anyone else considering going, would definitely go again next time weβre on vacation here.
We had a fabulous kayak trip to the beautiful Waties Island. Our guide, Meara, answered all our questions & informed us of local history & wildlife. Staff was polite, professional, and well organized (they even provided a dry bag & shared photos of our trip). So glad we booked with Trailblaze Adventure!
Amazing trip to the island with Keats. I canβt wait to talk the rest of our family into doing the sunrise tour next year, thanks so so much for such a special day. Thanks for taking the time to add some extra touches to ensure we had a great day. Honestly the best excursion we couldβve planned.
This is a very personalized small business owned by a father and son. They take the time to make sure you have a unique experience. They know their way around the salt marshes and ecology of this area. Youβll learn about birds and tides and oysters. Our tour was peaceful and beautiful and active, all at the same time.I canβt emphasize enough how nice it is to have a trip tailored to your interests and abilities! Keats takes the time to get to know you; he wants every guest to have a great time on his kayaks and paddleboards. We plan to take another trip with him and recommend him to our friends!
Keats was an incredible guide/instructor. Beautiful views on the route and Keats was knowledgeable about the wildlife. Even gave us a few paddle board lessons! Highly recommend.
Great experience with super nice folks!!! We did the sunset kayak tour and it was well worth the money. Our guide was super knowledgeable and very helpful. Would definitely do it again. Highly recommended for something off the beaten path. πΈπΊπ
I was running late and they waited for me. They kept a good pace. Beautiful scenery. Very kind people (I flipped my kayak twice and they helped me) absolutely worth it. And it helps the guides were very attractive
This was our familyβs first time kayaking and we really enjoyed it. It was fairly easy to do but you will get an arm workout. The guide was very nice. Highly recommend for a fun family activity.
We booked our trip last minute, and Trailblaze Adventure had an opening. The company called us in plenty of time to offer a refund or to reschedule for a later time in the day because of a technical issue on their end. The rescheduled time was for the island at sunset, and it was absolutely beautiful. The guide was fantastic, and everyone in my group was beginners, so she was very helpful. My husband and I had our three children with us, ages 15, 11, and 5. We took two tandem kayaks and one single. Everyone had a great time.
Keats and Meara are an absolute favorite of ours. We had never been to Myrtle Beach and just took a chance on this guided kayak tour. Not only did Keats rearrange our reservation to make sure we had the best day, Meara was informative and fun the entire time. We are complete novices in kayaking, but she made us feel comfortable. We are in our late 40βs and this tour was perfect! An extremely fun afternoon!
It was a really nice trip. May be rough paddle on a windy day but overall its pretty easy going and they have great guides. Ours was a blonde haired girl. Cant remember her name but she was great.
Wow what a gorgeous evening on the water. We arrived a little late but it was all good. Our guide, Keats, gave a us all a quick demo of how to use our paddles and had us in the water in no time. Our group was 8 total and Keats was very helpful. He got us moving along and pointed out interesting sights. He had great knowledge of the local wild life and what we could find along the way. My 12 and two 15 year olds had a great time kayaking for their first time. Keats even took time to let them try paddle boarding. All in all I would highly recommend Trailblaze Adventures and Keats. Thank you for the amazing time.
Had a great time on the private island kayak tour with Meara. We are all beginners and it was a very easy, relaxing ride to a from Waites Island. Enjoyed swimming and looking for sand dollars on the island. Would definitely go again!
Van was helpful and professional. Keats, our guide, led a group of mixed-experience paddlers through the marsh, attending to everyones needs and interests.
Keats was a very fun and knowledgeable guide. We had a great time. The marsh and sunrise were beautiful. Perfect start for the day.
This was most definitely the highlight of our trip to Myrtle Beach. Meara was very welcoming and showed us a great time around. Would definitely recommend Trailblaze Adventure to anyone looking to explore a peaceful island and learn about the beauty that it holds.
Great sunset paddle boarding / kayak tour! Our guide, Keats, was the best! He was timely and informative. Also accommodating to slower paddlers (like me lol). Such a great time! I highly recommend this company!
Great experience. The guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and even took pictures to send us later. We had a great time. I would highly recommend!
Had an amazing time with friends on this tour! Even after the little storm that went through we were able to go out and just enjoy the beautiful creation. We had amazing guides who joined in on our fun! I recommend this for people with experience and people with no experience paddle boarding or kayaking!
This was a really fun Kayak tour. Our guide Keith was really well prepared and super helpful. He did a great job recognizing the different needs in our group and kept the group connected. Helping those who needed it most. There were other tours near us and I was super happy we had Keith. Very kind and friendly. The kayaks were good quality and moved smoothly through the water.I would highly recommend Trailblaze adventure.KarenFrom western Massachusetts
This was a great kayak tour! The online booking was easy and the shop is run by a dad and son, which is adorable. The boats were new and the guide did all the lifting for you so it is very accessible to all abilities. I would highly recommend a kayak tour. But also we rented bikes to ride on the beach and the price and service was awesome!
We did the kayak/paddle board tour to the private island and it was great!! The guides were very accommodating, informative and extremely helpful!! Would definitely do it again!!
Keats was awesome, knowledgeable of the wildlife in the area while we were on the kayak tour. Highly recommend.
What a great Experience we had renting from Trailblaze Adventure. Customer service was great the process was fast! We rented a 6 seater golf cart and it really made a difference in our trip. Everyone loved it. Will definitely rent from now on when we vacation here!! Go check them out!
We had a great day with Trailblaze Adventure! Our guide was knowledgeable and fun! Would highly recommend
We had a great day on the kayak tour! Young kids and teenagers both enjoyed this adventure. Would highly recommend.
We had a great time and saw many beautiful sights. Our guide was amazing and very knowledgeable.
Fun and beautiful kayak/SUP trip. Everyone (ages 4-70) had a great time!
Keats went above and beyond to accommodate us and deliver 8 bikes to our condo for our last day of family vacation. Because of a life changing medical diagnosis as a child, our 19 yr old son had never learned to ride a bike. But thanks to Keats at Trailblaze Adventure, my husband finally had an opportunity to teach our son how to ride! (It was heartwarming for everyone on the beach watching this man teach this young man to ride a bike! Everyone clapped when he finally got the hang of it!). We will most definitely rent here again! Thank you!
Cant remember his name but the young guy was very customer friendly. He got me in & out without a booking & was very punctual with his arrival time for delivery to our resort. Prices are amazing compared to others. We will be coming back on our annual family vacation!!!β€β€β€
Had an awesome experience today! Thanks for getting our group out on short notice. We will be back!
Had a great tour with Keats. Everything was ready to go when we arrived. Felt very comfortable and had a great time.
I went on a kayak tour for the first time and I really enjoyed it! The kayak trip was relaxing and our guide, Keats, was very personable and patient. I highly recommend Trailblaze Adventures. They are very profesional and offer great services! Thank you for a great experience!
What a fun excursion! Keats & Mira were great guides. Trailblaze stops at a marsh where you can find fiddler & blue crabs. Iβm not sure if other groups do this, but it was a fun learning experience for a group that knows little about the ecosystem on the coast. Be prepared to be tired at the end. Itβs a mile to the island & could be difficult if you are out of shape or on a windy day.
Great adventure for family vacation. Keats and crew did a great job, our crew had a blast!!Thank you
After a few instructions, we took to the water for a very delightful time paddling the salt marsh. Keats was very engaging and led us through the marsh mazes pointing out birds and water life he spotted. I highly recommend kayaking with Trailblaze Adventure!
My teenage kids enjoyed the sunset paddle board experience. The guides were very knowledgeable of the area provided a lot of guidance and tips along the way.
We all had a great time kayaking. Our guides were very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. It was a really fun and safe tour. I would highly recommend.
Great day with friends on the water. Our guides were friendly, very informative about the natural habitat of the islands. Kyaks were clean and in great condition. Would absolutely book again with Trailblaze - Debra
Keats was knowledgeable and kind. Its a family owned business, which I love even more. The only tour company to work with!! Great people!!!
We had a great time with Keats on our private island kayak adventure. He was so knowledgeable and we felt like we had a really special one-on-one experience. The island was magnificent, and we found spectacular shells. Well definitely be back.
We wound up the only 3 on a drizzly Morning with our two guides Lanie and Maera. These ladies were friendly and professional and we had a blast on the 2 hour kayak tour. We are so happy we decided to do this and with this company!
Awesome company to deal with - we rented a golf cart for the week and couldnt have been happier with our decision to go with Trailblaze Adventure! Looking around their shop, they have tons of other rental options as well...everything you need for your beach vacation! Highly recommend them!
Our guides were very knowledgeable about the ecosystem! We saw lots of neat wildlife!
What wonderful experience! Such a therapeutic experience!! The staff was so patient and wonderful with a first timer like me! Happiness for me!
Had an awesome time with Keats on the Salt Marsh tour. Water was peaceful and quiet. Lots of beautiful scenery and some wild life to keep your eyes busy. Definitely recommend!
This was my first time on the paddle board and he was very helpful and made the trip a success
Wonderful experience Kayaking today with you guys!! Everything was great from arrival to finish!Beautiful marshland and excellent guide - we will definitely come back! Thank you πππ»ππ»
Loved the kayak private island tour. It was definitely a highlight of our trip!
I had an amazing experience paddle boarding on the Private Island Adventure tour with Trailblaze. Keats and Meara were super knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend!
The kayaking personnel were very nice and knowledgeable about kayaking and the marine life. It was a most enjoyable day. Well worth the money.
Great guides and a fun time kayaking through the marshes. Keep up the good work!
There were 9 of us and the experience was great. Very knowledgeable and fun as a guide
Staff is super nice and informative! Very fun thing to do and very affordable.
Owner very helpful, I had an issue with my personal bike and his son did a great job fixing it.Store is full of fun things to rent, worth the look to see, e bike also, golf carts etc...!!
Fun sunrise kayak trip, very accommodating and easy to set up a trip.
Wonderful experience kayaking with Mira today. Super friendly and knowledgeable about the island.
Such a great kayaking trip with these guys!! Small group and very personal service. Really special day!!
Beautiful tour and island! The guide was great and very knowledgeable. We saw blue crabs, a sting ray and so many birds and beautiful wildlife.
Great place to rent a golf cart....and owner was helpful with places to go and sightseeing
A great time, wonderful guides ! Loved it from beginning to end . Very organized and professional yet very causal and comfortable at the same time . Highly recommend this groupNicole
Friendly, informed and professional. Bikes were in excellent condition. Wife was comfortable and pleased. Highly recommend.
The bikes needed a littleAdjusting and had a loose chain and seats, but the manager was very nice and accommodating. They are experiencing a shortage of labor just like every other business in America so Iβm willing to give them a break
Had an amazing time! Our tour guide was great!!
Keats was an awesome guide and we had a blast. It was a good balance between time in the kayak and time on the beach. Would definitely recommend
What a great paddling excursion! Keats was a wonderful instructor and guide. He showed us how to paddle our kayak and paddleboard. And on the way to Waites Island, we stopped on a sandy beach and he showed us how to catch a blue crab (with his hands!) and a horseshoe crab! Trailblaze Adventure had great equipment and even loaned us a dry bag for our things! The trip itself was just enough β not too tiring and yet long enough to enjoy the beauty of the inlet. Fun time and we will definitely be back to do again! Highly recommend!
My tour was a complete BLAST. The most fun I had all vacation! The route was beautiful and peaceful! And the island we stopped at was astonishing. Beautiful white sand, clearer water, and hermit crabs everywhere! It was so cool. Our guide was so helpful and it was just truly amazing. Iβll remember this day always. 100% if youβre considering a tour here- DO IT. You really wonβt regret it- Iβm so thankful for the experience!!
Super fun! Staff was very accommodating to our vacation schedule. Keats was great and explained what we needed to know. Saw many birds.
Keats and his crew made kayak experience very pleasant for our family, this was our first ever kayak tour and were little nervous, but he assured 100% safety of my family and made it one of the most memorable experience of our lives, the weather was rough and last leg of the tour he towed me back to the landing ramp, anyone in Myrtle beach area and looking for kayak tour shall look no further - Keats you truly rock and your customer service was par excellence.
We have experienced nothing less than fantastic service from Trailblaze Adventure. We have rented bikes at least three times this summer and have utilized their delivery services as our SUV is not large enough to pick up. They have always delivered on time and had great communication. We find their prices are a great value and the quality of their bikes is awesome. We highly recommend Trailblaze Adventure to anyone looking to rent in the Myrtle Beach area.
Wonderful company, would recommend for renting golf carts and kayak tour.
Had fun with the golf cart we rented 24 hrs.
Thank you so much for such a fun! We had a great time with my kids!
Our Saltwater Marsh tour this afternoon was fantastic! We loved everything about it. Our guide Keats was excellent. He was friendly, helpful, patient, took photos, brought water and made us all feel comfortable. I was paddle boarding for the very first time and he is the perfect guide for beginners. We will definitely do another adventure tour with Keats in the near future. The best tour!
Went on family vacation and wanted to hit the water one morning. We kayak at home all the time. Found Trailblaze Adventure rentals and in just a few minutes online we had scheduled a morning adventure. We had rented 4 kayaks and a paddle board. It included a life vest and whistle for each person. We brought our own dry bags. We drove to the boat launch and met Keats. He gave us a quick rundown on what to do and where it was best to go. He let us know when the tide would bring us back so it would be an easier return paddle. He helped us into the water and off we went. We had great weather and nice 12β sit on top kayaks. Would definitely recommend Trailblaze Adventure for anyone looking to rent for a couple hours!
