Wild Root Journeys Reviews | Rating 4.9 out of 5 stars (5 reviews)

Wild Root Journeys is located in Vancouver, Canada on 831 Bidwell St. Wild Root Journeys is rated 4.9 out of 5 in the category canoe & kayak tour agency in Canada. Wild Root Journeys offers day and multi-day sea kayak and hiking trips, lessons, and nature retreats along British Columbia's coastline. We value the richness of traveling through our environment, self propelled. Here we are reminded, once again, to move with our environment. As we spend more time in nature we find ourselves adjusting to wake with the sunlight, to move with the tides and to listen to the skies. Animals show themselves like gifts, only for our eyes to see, and the little moments, like stillness, give us a breath from which we recharge. Wild Root Journeys offers guides with experience and heart. We are certified through the Sea Kayak Guide Alliance of BC, with ongoing first aid and skills training. Our goal is to open doors into nature for those seeking out adventure, time to recharge and growth. We are always happy to answer questions as they help you in your journey.

This woman is the absolute best! Silke is professional, fun, passionate about the experience she is sharing, knowledgeable about the environment and ecology around her, and does an amazing job creating an inclusive atmosphere. It was amazing to discover what's accessible so locally to Vancouver. What a great experience! (lunch was a wonderful touch as well!) Can't wait to do a longer trip!

Since my broken group island paddle with Wild root journeys I knew there wasnt any other way id want to spend my birthday! With full confidence that our guide Silke would practice all social distancing and sanitization practices I felt safe to invite my family. From the start to finish this journey was organized and informative. My siblings had all different levels of paddling experience and Silkes patience really shone bright that meant for a comfortable paddle and pace. Along the way we got to see plenty star fish, eagles and seals! When ready for our delicious lunch Silke found us a private beach to dock and enjoy the views away from crowds. To our delight on our paddle back Silke shared Indigenous history of where we were passing by. Overall this was a perfect day to connect with family and nature and will be cherished for many years to come!! Cant speak highly enough of Wild root journeys and the fantastic staycation celebration it turned out to be.

Beautiful day out on the water with Silke - who is so sincere, thoughtful, and knowledgeable! Best kayaking instruction I've ever received. Comfortable and welcomed as part of the queer community. Thank you!

Booked an 8 person 3 hour Deep Cove Trip for my birthday! All beginners. Had an absolutely amazing time. Our guides were ready to go when we got there, so friendly and relaxed and made us feel so at ease and safe. We headed straight out after a quick but thorough safety talk. They got us all situated and comfortable in our kayaks. Really took great care of us. We stopped at a little beach for a snack and they brought me A BIRTHDAY SURPRISE. CAKE! from a little bakery near her home. Completely went above and beyond my expectations. Silke shared some really cool information about the land we were near. Truly felt like we were travelling with friends not guides. They were very patient while we all got our groove in the water. I will ALWAYS choose Wild Root Journeys for any future kayaking endeavors. Truly wonderful people.

Kayaking for the first time ever, I couldn't have picked a better guide than Silke. She made sure everyone was safe (no capsizing at all!) and had a great time on the water, outside the city. It was really fun to paddle with her. Thinking back on some other kayaking tours I was looking into in Vancouver, I definitely felt like picking Silke's was the right decision because it's not in the city-bay side, but she takes you out of the city a bit. So you're kayaking surrounded by beautiful nature. We even got a seal or two to come by and say hi to us!
