Reviews
We had booked our tour with Island Romer a week in advance. The day before our tour Richard called us to suggest a change in the date of our tour as the marine forecast was for gusty weather. Richard explained that it would be less dangerous to kayak two days later. I appreciated his concern for our safety.
I had been on three previous kayak tours and I found Richard’s pre-trip instructions the most complete I had ever received. I appreciated his diligence and concern for our safety. I also found that Richard’s kayaks were the newest and nicest kayaks I had ever used.
Our party included our 19 year old son who has autism. Richard consistently encouraged our son throughout the trip. At one point our son capsized his kayak. Richard tended to my son within minutes as his PFD kept him afloat. I was impressed with Richard’s calm demeanor while coaching my son back into his kayak, and encouraging our son to continue the voyage.
During the trip Richard gave us some history about Newcastle Island, as well as interesting information about the unique vegetation and rock composition of the island.
All in all I found Richard to be a very professional guide. He was concerned about our safety and made every effort to ensure we had an enjoyable tour. I would definitely book another tour with Island Romer.
We had an amazing day on the water with Richard! He is safety-oriented, and provides high-quality gear in excellent condition. He is well-planned, a patient instructor, and offers interesting and client-centered information about local history, geology, wildlife, and adventure. He loves what he does, he cares about protecting nature, and he is an all-round great guide! Island Römer exceeded our expectations in every way. Highly recommended.
The Neck Point Roaming Game was the highlight of our trip! My husband and I saved the city and were able to do some sightseeing in the midst. The game is extremely well designed (with a great back story / props) and was the perfect level for us - we were engaged the entire duration of the game. Throughout the entire game Richard was available to us, in case we needed any hints.
We saw more of the park than we would have been able to otherwise (there are some relatively hidden areas in the park that are hard to find for non-locals). I would highly recommend this game to anyone from the Nanaimo area or visiting - especially if you love games and the outdoors (never have we been able to experience both of our hobbies together). I wish I could experience every city this way!
I had a great time on my kayak tour with Richard. He is knowledgeable about the area, safety conscious, and a lot of fun! I would highly recommend any tours with him!
I have taken two incredible kayaking tours with Richard, and each one was an experience I won't forget for a long time!
His tours and day trips are very well organized, and both Richard and Cecile are outstanding guides and very experienced kayakers, who are extremely knowledgeable of the area and attentive to their guests' individual needs. Safety is their first priority, and they both have an innate ability to put everyone at ease; however, having fun together as a group is definitely high on their list as well, and if you book with Island Römer Adventures you sure will have an unforgettable experience in the great outdoors of the Pacific West Coast! Highly recommended!! 🌊
