Our group was looking forward to this trip and getting out of the hustle and bustle of Broadway. And this trip DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! The staff is so incredibly nice and friendly and extremely supportive and understanding if anybody is struggling(beginners). Clear and quick communication as well. I would recommend Big Willies every time ! Can’t wait to do it again !

Great new experience
Debra_C, Sep 2023
Our guide was very patient with our group. Most were inexperienced kayaker. It was a lovely time. Would do it again
Loved the whole kayak trip! No complaints
Jesse_V, Sep 2023
This kayak tour is well worth it! So peaceful and quiet and the groups are small. Maybe 8-12 tops. We had a fun group of people from all over. The guide is great. There's no rush or hurry on the tempo. Great pace. No issues!
Lovely Nashville outing!
Gary_G, Sep 2023
We had a fantastic time! Dan & Melissa were super friendly and patient. We actually had the time mixed up, and arrived 30 min late. They allowed us to join in on the next one which we so appreciated. The kayaking was relaxed, the views were nice, and the river was calm. We felt it was the perfect length as well. :)
Its pretty but I wouldn’t do it again
Kaitlyn_K, Aug 2023
I enjoyed it being a small group. It was only my group of 3 with two other people besides the instructor. The two other people were nice but was like a mile ahead of us the whole time so it wasn’t much of a tour just kayaking with my friends 🤷🏼‍♀️
Great Service…
Jared_M, Aug 2023
Because of whether our trip was canceled… the company offered a full refund without any pushback. Thank you!
Easy family activity
Rhonda_P, Aug 2023
Easy trip down the river. Guide was very friendly. Not a guided tour for information or fun facts about the city or river. Just gentle kayaking on the river.
Kayaking in Nashville
Lisa_B, Aug 2023
Do something relax and enjoyable before visiting Broadway! It was a great experience. They are super friendly and made sure everyone was doing good the entire ride. Water was provided which is a nice touch. They also took pictures of each group and shared them with us at the end!
Fun opportunity to kayak, good price
Erinmargaret_L, Aug 2023
I really enjoyed the kayaking trip. Kayaks were in good shape, water was provided and encouraged since it was so hot. I do wish there was more in the way of a tour - explain what we are seeing, fun things about town, whatever.
Relaxing!!
Jeff_S, Jul 2023
It was a very relaxing trip down the river. Seeing downtown from the river was awesome! Wish it were a little longer.

Well Organized Leisurely tour
Bryan_C, Jun 2023
Well organized and nice leisurely tour. Dan was fantastic! Highly recommend. this tour. Was nice touch to have water at the end
Amazing experience
Nicole_F, Jun 2023
Both of them were so kinda and knowledgeable , texted us when they thought the weather conditions could hinder our experience , provided water and more . The kayaking was nice and peaceful down the river no gators or anything in the water. Provide life jackets so if your not drowning nor is there a threat to even fall in 10/10 experience all around
A Nashville Must Do!! Beautiful Views
Pierrelene_M, Jun 2023
Dan was such a great host!! It was my first time and I was nervous but he was so kind and helpful. He made sure to check in with us periodically and took pictures of us out in the water. The Cumberland River was gorgeous and a great place to have my first Kayaking Adventure. Definitely a Nashville Must Do!! If you're thinking about it, just go ahead and book it cuz the view and experience was well worth it 🤗
Solo Traveler Yet Not Alone
Gladys_B, Jun 2023
This experience was easy to book and the transportation was easy to find. Loved that they provided sun screen before departing, reminders on how-to, and water during. The guide kept in contact w the entire group, even though some were faster than others. They made sure we were all comfortable. Even though I was solo, I felt part of the group.
The best part of our trip!
Emily_S, Jun 2023
It was an awesome experience! The tour guides are so knowledgeable and easy to talk to. They made sure we had everything we needed for our trip down the river- even a waterproof phone necklace we could borrow! 10/10 recommend- we had a great time!!
Peace minutes from Broadway
Stephanie_H, Jun 2023
