Tassie Bound Adventure Tours, based in Hobart, TAS, offers an unforgettable kayaking experience like no other - the River Derwent Rapid kayaking tour. This multi-award-winning adventure is perfect for anyone looking to explore the breathtaking Tasmanian scenery and local produce while having a little excitement.

Your adventure begins with a scenic drive through the Upper Derwent Valley, offering views of Mount Field National Park, lush farmlands, and iconic hop fields. Upon arrival at the river, you''ll receive a comprehensive safety briefing before setting off on your 3-hour paddle tour down the River Derwent.

As you paddle, take in the stunning views of the Wellington Range, historic railway bridges, and keep an eye out for local wildlife, including platypus, sea eagles, and trout. Your tour includes a fresh, gourmet riverside lunch prepared by a fully qualified chef using world-famous Tasmanian seasonal produce.

This half-day adventure is suitable for beginners, couples, small groups, and families, with no kayaking experience required. Children aged 7 and up are welcome, and all guests are provided with their own kayak, with a tandem option available for children and not so confident guests.

Your tour includes transfers from Hawthorn Lodge in Bushy Park, photos of the day, and a transfer back to local drop-off points. Wetsuits are available for rent, and premium kayaking and safety equipment are provided.

At We Wander, we are proud to partner with Tassie Bound Adventure Tours, offering some of the best paddling tours and kayak rentals in Australia. With a focus on water sports, paddling adventures, and canoeing trips, Tassie Bound Adventure Tours provides a unique and unforgettable kayaking experience.

Join Tassie Bound Adventure Tours for an exciting and unforgettable kayaking experience, taking in the stunning scenery and local produce that Hobart and Tasmania have to offer. Book your tour today and start your paddling adventure.
