About Us
At Smoky Mountain Kayaking our company philosophy is based on the belief that our customers are "family". We will provide the best we have to offer and treat you with the utmost importance. Our entire team is committed to meeting those needs. As a result, a high percentage of our business is from repeat customers and referrals. We also believe that our tour group sizes should be small. Smaller groups allow for more interaction with our guides and a better chance to see otters, deer, and birds. Most of all, your guide can better assistance in "coaching" with paddling techniques for a more efficient and effortless paddle stroke.
Come kayak with our "family" and let us show you our backyard with it's beautiful waters and history. We would welcome the opportunity to earn your trust and deliver you the best adventure in the smokies. No Experience Needed!!
