**The safety of our guests and Traveling Ink's team is always our first priority. The Traveling Ink team will be continually monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic to make wise decisions about in-person events on a day to day basis. If in-person events are unwise, we will do our best to offer guests virtual team building options. Please be patient as we work to serve you and your team safely during these unprecendented times. 

Your group will enjoy a unique team building experience paddling on either the Folly Creek on James Island or Shem Creek in Mt. Pleasant. Your certified kayaking guide will introduce the group to the basics of paddling during land instruction. Following your land instruction, the guide will lead the group through some team building exercises on the water, followed by a tour of the creek environment. Groups can expect beautiful backdrops of marshland and regular guest appearances by leaping shrimp, stately egrets and pelicans, blue crabs, curious dolphins, and even the occasional manatee. Chose from either option below.

Client Testimonials

  • A Charleston resident suggested a Traveling Ink concierge might be able to help me. It didn’t take long for me to realize that this was one of the best pieces of advice I could have received. My friends thought I was an organizational wizard even though I kept telling them it was Traveling Ink, not me.

    ~ Nicky H.
  • We so enjoyed our time in Charleston. Thank you for all your insight! I am recommending your services to everyone I know who is traveling to Charleston!

    ~Kathryn C.
  • Traveling Ink planned the three full days we would have in Charleston, how we would get from one place to another, places to eat, and what the costs would be. To add to the challenge, we had to change the day of one of the main attractions because rain had been predicted. They handled all the changes with out missing a step.

    ~ Harriett H.
  • These Charleston pros do a phenomenal job in any setting. Audra was our point person and is a pleasure to work with. She is laid back and can work with any request.
