Decided to book this spontaneously earlier in the day and we had the most fantastic time. Gus and Aiden were so knowledgeable and helpful. Such a unique and fun way to take in the ambience of Melbourne- especially with add ons like getting to stop and see the fire show outside the Crown. Will remember this experience for a long time to come!

Absolutely awesome evening kayaking up and around the Yarra River from Docklands to Fed Square. Ari and Adam got us all set up and in our kayaks with a great safety and instruction briefing and we very very quickly on our way. The kayaks also have rudders which make steering and avoiding obstacles a breeze 😀 Anyone can do it, even those with no previous experience! A must do excursion for locals and visitors alike! Certainly deserves the 5 stars! Thanks again for the great night.

This was a wonderful and low-key experience! After going through the necessary basics of kayaking in the double kayaks they have, we loaded our boats into the water, kayaked up the river, and would stop every now and again to hear tidbits from our guide. Halfway through we stopped for dinner, tied up the boats at a dock, and shared a simple communal experience eating in the kayaks themselves with delicious takeaway from a riverside restaurant. (There are more options on the menu than just fish and chips—the grilled fish was excellent!) It was a beautiful sunset and very relaxing evening, even though paddling a kayak is a bit of exercise. We didn’t need to go very fast though. I would definitely recommend this!

A great evening with friendly and competent guides. The view of the city from the water is a different experience and particularly lovely at night. You'll need a reasonable level of fitness for the paddling but it felt safe and comfortable with excellent equipment provided. We thoroughly enjoyed it, thanks Kayak Melbourne!
