See both old and new areas of Melbourne waterway!
Come on a kayak tour of Melbourne and view the city from a unique angle, that is, from the water. Relax and cruise along and see both old and new areas of Melbourne waterways while hearing vibrant music, sounds and then watching the sun setting. Hear stories of the old dock areas. The double kayaks are easy to use, stable and fast. Stop for snack and drink along the way and have a chat to your fellow kayakers. Take in the pyrotechnic fireball display at Crown Casino at dusk. This kayak tour of Melbourne is a must experience for locals and international alike. Come enjoy with friends, family or make new friends.
This kayak tour starts in the city centre, on the Yarra River. There is an exchange of medical and indemnity forms and life jackets are then correctly fitted. If it's cold then spray jackets and thermals are also issued. Clients are then grouped into pairs and the rudder system is adjusted for the back person steering. A safety talk is then conducted. The group then get on the water. There is a rest stop, half way through the tour, to stretch your legs and have a snack and drink.
There are a lot of things to see like the former Customs House, turning basin, Historical ships, former waterfall, old warehouses and Bolte Bridge. This is the centre of Melbourne so there is lots of vibrant activity. Music is often played along the water's edge. Historical commentary on the old docks area is provided along the way.
