A great way to see the city - Me and my boyfriend were in Melbourne for only a couple of days. The city tour during the day was a great way to see the city from a different perspective. Our tour guide was really enthusiastic and shared some insights about the city throughout the tour. It was the highlight of our day!

Great Maiden Kayaking Experience - A must do if you haven't experienced yet. Super safe and fun. It was a maiden experience for us and we loved it. Even being aquaphobic, the ride felt very safe and comfortable.

Terrific way to view Melbourne - This was the perfect way to start our Australian adventure & beat jet lag! We arrived in Melbourne at 0600 and hopped on the river at 1430. Our guide Austin was patient with all levels of experience on the tour. We stopped at various points along the Yarra & learned some history as well as some recommendations of places to check out. Highly recommend this unique way to view a beautiful city!

The instructor was very... - 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!!

Awesome experience - Great experience with a lovey, friendly and knowledgeable guide. Beautiful city sights. For beginner kayakers the tour was just the right amount of time. Only spoiler was having to stop frequently and wait for slower participants to catch up. Otherwise perfect 😁
