Howling Wolfe Canoe & Kayak — Attraction in Aurora Township

On August 9, 2025, my wife and I took the Aurora guided kayak to tour to celebrate her birthday. We had only kayak once by ourselves and struggled a little bit so we were hoping this would make it a little easier and give us some tips. And we were beyond elated… They gave us a little lesson after some safety tips and then we took a tour from Batavia down to North Aurora and we did really well. Our guides were Colin and David. Colin was super patient with us and David gave us hints as well. We didn’t get stock, we didn’t really struggle, and when we asked for some pointers, they told us what to do and it was so clear and easy we were able to maneuver the entire ride without their hands on assistance, but more of their knowledge and confidence. We even got donuts at the stop Frahm really great restaurant bakery that I love in Aurora. We will definitely be back and I think it was worth the cost. I felt I gained confidence in my kayaking And we had a really great time. I was a little nervous at first because I wasn’t sure who else would be on the tour with us and with their skill level was. There was people from all different kinds of skills and we’re a little bit older. (I am 56, she is 63 )… and again, we did really well and were able to keep up without any problems. I would give them a try because I know I’m gonna go back and...

I had an amazing time with Coyote Kayak and Canoe on their fall kayaking experience for beginners. The entire trip was so well-organized and truly memorable. Our guides, Jake and Colin, were fantastic! Jake and Colin were incredibly personable and made everyone feel comfortable from the start! Both Jake and Colin were super helpful and attentive to the group’s needs. Their combined energy created such a positive and welcoming atmosphere. As a beginner, I appreciated how they both took the time to explain things clearly and made sure we were all having a great time despite. They even took photos during the trip, which was a wonderful touch and made the experience worth every penny. Jake and Colin are the best - truly prepared for everything! They were so positive and inviting the whole time! I highly recommend this adventure, especially for those new to kayaking. It was the perfect way to enjoy the fall scenery and create lasting memories! They also have other kayaking experiences - so check out those!! Definitely recommend, and can’t reiterate enough, how amazing Jake and Colin were! Thank you so much!...

What an incredible experience! My partner surprised me with a kayak tour down the river, and it ended up being one of the highlights of my visit to Batavia. The owner was so friendly and extremely courteous — truly made us feel welcomed right from the start.

We lucked out with perfect weather: 75 degrees and not a cloud in sight! The long tour was absolutely worth it — 10000% recommend going for the extended route. We saw so much wildlife along the way, and even had fish jumping up near (and almost into) our kayaks! The peaceful current made it super relaxing, and it was the perfect way to take in the natural beauty of the area.

Our guide was fantastic — super knowledgeable and passionate, having lived just down the street for most of their life. This was only my third visit to this charming little city, but it definitely won’t be my last. Between the amazing outdoor experiences and all the great local shops, eateries, and breweries, Batavia has a lot to offer.

If this company offers other tours, I’d sign up in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommend...
