Absolutely beautiful, the instructor was great, very friendly and informative.
Had so much fun, great company, good pace. Lovely scenery.
For someone who doesn't like water (like myself), I felt totally secure and thoroughly enjoy this tour. The tour guides were friendly and very helpful. It's a wonderful way to capture the beautiful Yarra River and the City.

Fantastic way to see Melbourne Docklands and the Yarra but not for everyone. You need to be relatively fit and active as you paddle the whole time except when eating amazing fish and chips. Matt our guide was very informative and easy to talk to. Only suggestion would be more signage at meeting point

This was a great evening- Kent was a great tour host and gave us just enough tips on kayaking without trying to turn us into experts!! The Yarra at night is stunning and we enjoyed being on the water as sun set and day changed to evening. The fish and chips were top class as well!! all in all I would recommend this a s a great thing to do in Melbourne for lots of people. You don't need to be an expert kayaker- just have a sense of fun and enjoy meeting other good people.

Fantastic opportunity to see the main sights of the Yarra and Melbourne. A well informed guide who certainly added his personal touch to this tour. Highlight was being able to sit out on the water while watching the Casino fire show, and the fish and chips- of course! Have, and will continue to recommend

Our kayak trip with Kent was a great introduction to Melbourne. We got off the plane, got settled, and went kayaking. Even though we were the only two people scheduled, he still took us out. It was our first time kayaking and he explained everything to us and helped us get going. What a fun way to see the city and get some exercise! Thanks Kent!

Great afternoon, friendly, informative guide that took us on a personal tour as we were the only two that day! Wasn't too difficult rowing for couple hours but lunch stop early on board our kayak was fun.
