El Dorado Kayak

This was the highlight of our trip to Buenos Aires! We learned so much about the history, wildlife and everyday experience of Tigre. Such a beautiful glimpse of this immensely unique place. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an authentic and leisurely day in the delta!

One of our absolute favorite experiences in our time in Buenos Aires. So good we came twice in two months. It worked well for our family with one 9 year old sitting in the front of a double kayak with me in the back. Martin is super nice and knowledgeable. Kayaking is definitely the best way to experience all the little streams and inlets and whatnot. When we did the Delta in a larger motor boat later, it was far less interesting. The after kayak hangout in the bungalow was also super pleasant. Sip mate or beer, eat some snacks, and learn more about the area.

We would give this 10 stars if we could. We did the full day experience with Martin which included a scenic ride in his motor boat out to the base. When we arrived, Martin treated us to coffee and breakfast which we were not expecting. After breakfast, we explored the delta by kayak for a little over three hours. Martin explained so much about the land and history of the area. We returned to the base and Martin made us a delicious homemade lunch. I am vegetarian and it was honestly the best vegetarian meal I have had in my three weeks in Argentina. We had beer, coffee and mate and enjoyed conversation with Martin. As the tide has risen we were able to take another route back to Tigre through the delta and Martin dropped us off right in front of our apartment. From the start, communication was easy and clear. The entire experience was so special and such a wonderful end to our honeymoon. We highly recommend choosing El Dorado Kayak for a unique and bespoke experience.

What an amazing day! Pick up was on time, we had the most beautiful day kayaking. We learned tons about the geography and history of the area. Our guide was so helpful and enjoyable to spend the day with. We were treated to snacks and mate after our journey. We got to see detailed maps of where we had been, and we even had a sweet little neighbor dog swimming with us part of the way. Worth the money? Absolutely! Would recommend a hundred times over!

Martin was an excellent guide to the Paraná Delta, and really made us feel welcome while providing an interesting perspective of the ecosystem, history and modern life in the Delta. We did a morning kayak outing which was exactly the right length for two rusty paddlers and was topped off by a tasty snack and mate. Highly recommend if you're looking for a change of pace from Buenos Aires. Note: would advise a weekday if possible as weekends are apparently very crowded on the water.

Had a great afternoon kayaking with Martin! He was very patient with us - we aren't the fastest or most experienced kayakers, but certainly laughed ALOT! He has great knowledge of the Delta and the gorgeous nature around! Ended the trip with a lovely coffee and snack in his amazing home. Thanks so much for a great experience, we highly recommend 😀

We had a group of 24 people on a moonlight kayaking tour. El Dorado was very accommodating to a group that size and although they couldn't provide enough kayaks for all of us at once, they conducted a very informative night hike around their property for half the group while the other half was guided down the delta. Their guides spoke solid English and responded very quickly via e-mail. Their property is also gorgeous and I regret not spending the night. If they offer to provide dinner for your group take the opportunity! The affordable meal was absolutely delicious and they were more than accommodating for dietary restrictions when informed ahead of time. Also the motor boat ride to the property was an unexpected bonus! They met us at a dock in Tigre and had two boats taxi us down the delta to their property. It was such a unique experience.

Wonderful morning touring the Tigre Delta by kayak. Martin's place is deep in the delta and even the half hour ride to his place gives views of the area you simply can't get on any other tour. Good quality equipment and excellent kayak guide/instructor, Fran. Perfect English spoken.
