Amazing experience! The instruction on terminology, history, and technique was great! Matt did a great job preteaching before we got on the water, amazing instruction on the water, and offered a great tour along the route!

Our instructor Anthony was very thorough and engaging! I feel like we walked away with solid knowledge of the basics of kayaking, and could go out without an instructor in the future.

Adam was a great instructor! Wealth of knowledge, function criticism/tweaks in a way that was easy to follow. Really enjoyed the staff and quality of supplies. Look forward to renting in the future and trying some other classes

It was great! Eric is an awesome person and great teacher. I learned so much about kayaking that day. Had a great time on the water. I could've stayed out there all day on the kayak. I recommend Kayak Chicago, you'll have a very good time a learn loads. A grand experience. I'm purchasing my own kayak soon 👍
