Guaranteed Protection

Your safety is our top priority, always. When you book with Guidesly, you can rest assured that you know exactly how much you’re paying, how you’re paying, and when you’re paying. The Guidesly Guarantee is our way of letting you know that you’re safe when you book with us. Here’s how:

Enjoy secure flexpay options with Guidesly- A black shield surrounds a green and white secured lock with a check mark.

Secure Flexpay

When you book a trip with Guidesly, you can trust that your money is safe. Unlike competitors, trip payments are made entirely through Guidesly, so you don't have to scramble for cash on the day of trip with the guide and you always know exactly what you owe. Plus, with flexpay you can choose to pay via one sum payment or multiple payments and have the option to pay with a credit card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay.
Guidesly offers the most flexible trip cancellations- A black gear surrounds a green check mark.

Flexible Cancellations

Though each guide has their own cancellation policy, Guidesly helps you every step of the way- including helping you find a new trip. You're able to openly view each guide's cancellation policy on their profiles before you book, so you know all of the important details before you hit pay.
You can trust all Guidesly guides are background checked for security- A black identification card has a green check mark.

Security & Background Checks

Especially when you're out on the water, we take many steps to ensure that you are safe. We fully verify each guide and perform an extensive background check before they are able to join our platform. Book and meet guides worry-free.
Our customer success team is always here to help- A black checklist is behind a man colored in green.

What People Are Saying About Guidesly

Thennn is the kind of guide you want in your corner - laid back but focused, and genuinely passionate about putting you on fish. Even when we struck out today, he never lost that enthusiasm or stopped working to make something happen. Guy's got stories for days and knows these waters like the back of his hand. The fish just weren't having it, but that's fishing for you. What impressed me most was how thennn handled the tough conditions - always optimistic, always adjusting the game plan. That's the mark of a pro right there.

Fished with thennn at Federal Street and got to see what this guide is all about. Zero fish to show for it, but thennn's attitude was solid throughout the whole skunk session. Cool, partly cloudy day with a decent breeze - perfect fishing weather that just didn't produce. What impressed me was how thennn handled the slow bite, staying positive and switching up tactics without getting frustrated. Real professional approach, kept teaching even when the fish weren't biting. Shared some great local knowledge and made what could've been a disappointing day into a good learning experience. Sometimes you measure a guide not by the fish count but by how they handle the tough days. Thennn passed that test with flying colors.
