Who needs a gondola ride? - What a fun experience this was...I woke up one evening before our trip and thought....I wonder if you can kayak the canals. Looked and booked this tour. Very unique way to check out quieter sections of Venice by canal, learn some history and heck...it's kayaking, it just has to be fun. Folks that were on the adventure with us had not been kayaking before. Our guide showed us everything needed to have a safe and fun trip. Definately recommend this one.

Another side of Venice - This was everything I hoped it would be - a chance to see venice from a different angle, and something that would make a memory with teenagers. It was both those things

Wonderful way to see the secret canals and learn about the unique history of Venice under paddle. - We can highly recommend this kayak tour around the north district of Venice. Incredibly knowledgeable tour guide with superb facilities and communication. Very safe, but you do need to be reasonably fit as you do travel many canals. Top marks and I would recommend to anyone who fancies seeing Venice’s quiet water ways.

Not to be missed - Shamir is an excellent guide. He provided us as much information as we wanted while also letting us paddle in silence so that we could look around. The route took us throughout the city from a perspective that you simply can't get somewhere else. I would highly recommend it.
