We just got back from the tour and had an awesome experience! We did the canoeing and camping trip into Santa Elena Canyon. Our guide was Josh. He was an ex Air Force, uber geek and excellent guide and chef. He was very, very knowledgeable about the history of the area, the flora and fauna and the geology of the Big Bend. The other family was very slow (grandparents and two young kids) and required a lot of assistance but he was very, very patient with them. My adult son who gets bored easily immensely enjoyed the trip. We loved the boulder hike up to the cave through the birthing canal. The equipments were in good working order, there were chairs for us to sit around the campfire. It was just amazing! Thanks Josh for the excellent food, amazing service, great company and excellent tour!
