Explore nature in the Maine outdoors like never before: with a Master Maine Guide who’s an expert on the area’s geography, wildlife, and history.
You’ll experience a private three-hour or full-day canoe trip with bird watching, critter dipping, and paddling in the serene nature of Maine for a new understanding of an appreciation for the outdoors. If you’d like to include fishing from the canoe, we can add that to the trip.
Where and When
We’ll start and return to Ayer Park in Union, Maine from May to October. As with all Maine Outdoors trips, your Nature Exploration Canoe Trip is for your party only, so you’ll have a Master Maine Guide exclusive to your trip.
