The instructor was very knowledgeable as he took charge during our tour and took his time to explain every feature we encountered. Brandon was very friendly and accommodating. I enjoyed the tour and will probably bring my partner next time for such a wonderful experience. Well done to him and his team mate!!

Decided to tag along with a friend as he really wanted to do this, I'm so glad I did! Was actually quite fun, got a unique tour of the city with lots of interesting history of the Yarra River. Austin the instructor clearly explained everything you needed to know before we got into the boat, (two people to one kayak) and there was another instructor on hand in case anyone fell behind or ran into difficulties with the boat. They also had spf to ensure you didn't burn! Overall it was a chilled out, fun activity and they guys made me feel safe.

The guides, Matt and Austin, were awesome! We wanted a fun outing that didn’t take all day and this was perfect. Fair warning, I’m a big guy, 6ft 5in, and barely fit in the Kayak so you’ve been warned. My wife and I shared the Kayak. It was a lot of fun and informative. Just what we were looking for.

One of my best trips ever. Small group, Adam a very good and informative guide. For just under 2 hours we kayaked the Yarra Rover through Central Melbourne to the dock lands, and back again. All the time with interesting facts from Adam about the city and buildings around us. Amazing to view the city from the water. Great value tour, highly recommended

Had a lovely morning paddling on the Yarra river. Saw a different angle of the city of Melbourne. Mitch showed everyone how the kayak should be steered and paddled. Wish we could have gone a little further down the river.
