The staff were very professional and helpful. They were very patient as well. I did kayak on other tours before, but none of them took the time to teach me how to do it properly, resulting in early exhaustion. They gave you a quick lesson, so I feel comfortable to enjoy the whole trip. Highly recommend this tour.

We visited Melbourne from the UK to see family and they recommended we did the Twilight Kayak tour. We were a bit unsure as we are both in our late 60's, but decided to go for it ... and so glad we did. The paddling was very relaxed, the tour guides helpful and informative, and of course the views of Melbourne were amazing! Highly recommended, even for old folks!

After a 37 degree day in Melbourne kayaking on the Yarra was a refreshing way to see the sights and cool down.
