Hands down the best canoe & kayak outfitter in the area. My wife and I own NY's largest wilderness guide service, we've been working with ALTO for years, and this review is long overdue. Their team of welcoming, knowledgeable professionals are eager to get you on the water, on the route and in the boat that is best for the adventure you're seeking. They handle incredibly complex, 36 person, 11 day trip with as much ease as a 1 day, 1 canoe rental.
Go to ALTO for all your canoe and kayak needs and you'll never be disappointed!
