Unique Sunset Experience - Had an excellent sunset paddle with Shamir. The sunset was beautiful and Shamir’s knowledge around the origins of the city and stories behind certain locations was really fun. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique activity and way to see Venice.

Best View of Venice - A wonderfully unique way to experience the beauty the city has to offer! We did the sunset tour with Mattia and it was truly amazing… something we will never forget! Highly recommend!!!

Intimate perspective - This was our second adventure with Venice Kayak, but our first night tour. Boris was an incredible guide, and his knowledge and love of Venice were evident. We got to see the beautiful architecture, hear a historical perspective that would have been lacking without a guide, and feel very close to life in Venice. Night provided such an interesting perspective as some of the internal components of homes, businesses, and gardens in the area. You really do gain a view that isn’t evident from the walkable passageways.
Boris was very clear about safety, and that made us very comfortable in what is very unfamiliar to us. We love the new location as well. Entry and exit of the water were much easier.

Great Birding on the Venice Lagoon - My wife and I toured the lagoon with Venice Kayak on our honeymoon. We told our guide, Max, at the start that we were birders, and he did a great job of concentrating on that aspect of the experience without forgetting to include interesting stories about the human and natural history of the area.
Fortune was with us and we got to see a couple of Greater Flamingoes in the wild, as well as a host of other water fowl and a few predators.
Max was easy going and fun to be with, and took a lot of photos along the way. All in all, the tour was one of the highlights of our Venice vacation.

Beautiful, Peaceful Scenery - We loved being in the lagoon away from the chaos of the canals. Alberto did a great job share his insight and history of the area. We definitely enjoyed this tour.

Please see above - JP and Mike were excellent. Mike guided us at a good pace that matched my preferences. These are full-on ocean kayaks so they are fast. And yet, they are also very stable. Mike's knowledge of Venecia history and architecture was top rate: I have been to Venice now about 6 times, and with Venice Kayak about 4 times in a row. Once we left Venice, Mike also was Very very knowledgeable about the ecology of the lagoona and its wildlife. Finally, we had an Excellent lunch at the halfway point, and Mike provided memorable photos...for free. On returning to Certosa, JP had Prosecco and snacks waiting!
Looking forward to my fifth trip with Venice Kayak in 2023, when I come back to teach at the local University in Venice.

Kayaking thru the Venice canals! What a great company Venice Kayak is! - Highly recommend Venice kayaking. From the monument we arrive on the island til we departed they made our experience fantastic. Thank you Jean Paul for your hospitality and going over and above (San Lazzaro was better than we hoped and I think you personally for that) and Massimo for being a great guide and giving us an experience to remember for all times. Who ever thought we’ll be kayaking down the Venice canals, not us!. Equipment provided, was clean and not smelly (and if you know about wet sports if you don’t take care of your equipment it can get moldy smelling) and in great condition. Excellent English with no problems understanding each other. I think we found ourselves in many tourist photos when people saw us kayaking down the canals 😁. We loved this day and highly recommend this company and experience.
