A beautifully guided and peaceful trip up the Canning River. - We went on the Cliffs and Caves tour last year and came back for this one. Matt is an amazing guide whose knowledge on the area is outstanding. He has clearly spent a lot of time learning the Aboriginal history, the history since colonial settlement, and a heap of information about the birdlife and the natural environment. What a lovely way to spend a morning!

A highly recommended experience kayaking the Canning River wetlands - A fabulously informative kayak trip in the well preserved Canning River wetlands where we learnt so much about the history, unique flora and diverse fauna of this special environment. Matt’s knowledge and enthusiasm towards preservation of the wetlands was so infectious we felt privileged to be able to share this opportunity to experience this unique part of Perth. The kayak pace was good and the coffee stop was a great opportunity to talk with Matt and other guests. A highly recommended experience.

A fascinating tour to see a different side of Perth - We had a fantastic experience paddling through the Canning R wetlands. Matt was an excellent guide, great personal attention, full of interesting information and practical tips to make the journey so much easier. The location was amazing, with lots of birds that you could get up close to from the water, definitely bring your camera, don't worry about the kayak, it was very stable and not even a feeling of tipping over. Highly recommended to see a different side of Perth.

Wonderful kayak trip to see wildlife in untouched wetlands - Just on the outskirts of Perth, this is a step back in time to an area barely touched since the arrival of Brits in the 19th century. The kayaks allow access to a wildlife area virtually inaccessible by any other means, allowing observation of a wide variety of birds in their natural environment. Matt offers an informative commentry that also adds to the enjoyment of the trip. Highly recommended.
