Was really great...

Was really great experience with Sasha. It was only myself and partner so it was very good to know the river and birds on a personal level. Sasha was great and friendly and I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in a calm and chill couple of hours on the river!

Relaxing afternoon on the river

Very relaxing - river is calm and protected from wind. Our guide Simon was very friendly and informative about the river. Not much to see - just some birds but a relaxing afternoon. Can go at your own pace, if you want to go quicker welcome to go ahead of others in your group.

Meditative cruise through Canning River (great birdwatching activity)

Tom was extremely pleasant to interact with, making jokes and just overall had a very jovial aura about him, which made my initial experience welcoming. He even offered to sort out my payment directly instead of doing it on the website so I don't incur a booking fee (for the weekend, it was $35). I took a solo kayak ride by Canning River. The waters were serene, and the kayaking made for a perfect birdwatching activity! All throughout the ride I saw a variety of birds flying, and a brace of ducks floating about. It was such a marvel. I did it on a Sunday morning and it couldn't have been a more scenic way to spend my weekend in a slow and meditative manner. I would do this again when I'm in Perth.

Operator response

Thanks and please come back soon!

Relaxing Wetlands Kayak

My daughter and I had a lovely visit to the wetlands of the Canning River. We both recommend this experience to others. A relaxing, quiet, nature filled paddle.

Peaceful and quiet Canning River

Wonderful. Grandchildren loved it and myself even more. Lovely calm water and easy paddling with cormorant and darters aplenty. Very comfortable seats and good back rest, so great for me as a senior and you don't have to be strong or fit. Highly recommended.

Peaceful stroll through wetlands surrounded by different fauna.

What a great way to spend a beautiful morning. Discovered our own back yard and saw it in a whole different way. Very knowledgeable guide Rod. Saw heaps of wildlife birds, snake & turtle! Relaxing and enjoyable. Thoroughly recommend.

Relaxing

I highly recommend this tour. The kayaking required very little effort, which was a surprise. We learnt so much about the local area, bird life and flora. Would like to try the Penguin Island one now.
