Tarkio Kayak Adventures

“Tarkio and it's guides provide something so special; I've always felt priveleged to be part of it.”

– Tom Bajo of Scottsdale, AZ

“Tarkio kayak trips offer a perfect combination of adventure, fun, instruction, locations and safety. Whether I'm trusting the Tarkio guides with my life during an international adventure, or with my kids in Idaho and Montana, I know the experience will be world- class. Life is simply what happens between Tarkio trips, and I wouldn't have it any other way.”

– Adam Saccio of
Friday Harbor, WA

WELCOME TO TARKIO KAYAK ADVENTURES.
Our vision is simple. Bring expert kayak instructors together to teach small groups of students on the best rivers in the world.

Tarkio Kayak Adventures offers a multitude of lessons, trips, and clinics geared towards our clients’ personal needs and skill levels. We specialize in multi-day instructional clinics that lead to increased skill-development. Tarkio’s kayak clinics and trips capture why we love to paddle: good times, beautiful rivers, and fun people.

The Tarkio Team includes some of the best known paddlers and instructors in the whitewater world. Not only that, they are just one heck of a high-quality, fun-loving group of people. Our veteran instructors include Land Hefin, Willie Kern, Dunbar Hardy, Shawn Robertson, Whitney Londale, Jed Weingarten, Johnnie Kern, Polly Green and Tracy Bowerman.

Tarkio Kayak Adventures is proud to offer amazing global whitewater adventures, as well as Idaho and Montana-based clinics and trips during our summer season. Whether it is private instruction or an adventurous international Tarkio trip, we've got you covered!
