I lived seeing Melbourne in a different perspective. Going under all the bridges was fantastic. After living here for over 20 years I leaned history about the Yarra River I never knew before.

This was such a highlight from my trip to Australia, Dan and Ari were amazing guides, keeping us safe and telling us about the history of where we were paddling, the views from the river are amazing and the paddling itself very chilled, even with the boats zooming past us Dan kept us right. 10/10 would recommend and am definitely coming back on my next visit!

A unique way to explore Melbourne. Coming from Perth I had to check out the River Melbourne City is built on. Melbourne Kayaks were a fun alternative to see some more of the sights while getting some exercise in. We had a beautiful spring afternoon and the water was still with a fantastic sunset. Watching the buildings light up as it darkened was delightful. The tour guide had some interesting Melbourne trivia as we paddled around. Fish and chips on the water at sunset was lovely, later moving on down toward Crown casino. Highly recommend.
