Paddle with friends or family and enjoy the thrills and spills over an awesome day. With the added convenience of being so close to Melbourne, it is the perfect day trip. ​You will paddle through stunning mini gorges and valleys filled with native bush land and wildlife. It will feel as though you are in a completely remote location, away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The river is fantastic all year round and especially throughout the winter months with higher rainfall and bigger rapids. We can provide lunch and time to sit back and take it all

Yarra canoeing

Published on Jan, 2025

Excellent tour and amazing scenery. Highly recommended. Thanks again to Jen and the team. Looking forward to another in the future.

Fun N.Y. Day river trip

Published on Jan, 2025

Thanks to Andy for guiding our diverse group down the not so treacherous Yarra rapids! A great little trip with lovely fresh fruit snacks and salad wraps at lunch. :-)) Somehow he managed to get some good video shots while assisting us to negotiate some of the narrower bits - thanks Andy. In particular, thanks for towing Grandma and Grandad for a short stretch to give us a rest, even though we didn't really need it - we were just taking advantage of his kind offer! A thoroughly enjoyable trip that was very professionally run in an extremely friendly way.

Great fun trip. Andy was very helpful and knowledgeable Teenagers had an amazing time. Beautiful place. Parrots and kangaroos seen.

Fantastic kayaking experience

Published on Dec, 2024

We had a great time paddling along the Yarra river. The rapids were fun, but not too intense. Lovely scenery with some interesting facts from our guide. Andrew was relaxed but in control, with a great sense of humour. I thought his instructions at the beginning of the morning were really useful and informative. Would highly recommend this trip!

So much funnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Published on Dec, 2024

Do ittttt. Definitely a great experience. We four are all beginner with zero experience. I am glad that I booked with them. Andrew is very kind and funny! Well organised trip! Will do it again!
