Yarra River Waterfietstocht
Beschrijving
Ervaar de Yarra-rivier als nooit tevoren bovenop onze geavanceerde waterfietsen. Dit is niet een typische rivierreis; het is een avontuur dat een onbelemmerd 360 graden uitzicht biedt op de schoonheid van Melbourne. Fiets door de levendige verkeersaders van de waterwegen van Melbourne en geniet van een prachtig uitzicht op iconische bezienswaardigheden, bruggen en het dynamische stedelijke tapijt langs de oevers van de Yarra. Onze route combineert op meesterlijke wijze de weelderige groene delen van de Yarra met de stedelijke pracht van Melbourne. Voel de zachte rivierbries en geniet van de sfeer van de stad tijdens één naadloze reis. Met onze waterfietsen verken je niet alleen de rivier, maar doe je het ook nog eens verantwoord. Onze emissievrije, stille waterfietsen respecteren het ecosysteem van de rivier en maken een harmonieuze interactie met de natuur mogelijk. Het verhoogde perspectief vanaf onze waterfietsen biedt ongeëvenaarde fotomomenten. Of het nu gaat om de skyline van de stad, historische bruggen of speelse rivierdieren, bij elke bocht is er een perfect fotomoment.

Waterbikes Australia was a unique and fun way to get a 'lay of the land' for our family of four who wanted a fun introduction to Melbourne. Mark and Laurie are awesome hosts. The tour was informative. The guides did a great job balancing fun facts on Melbourne, safety, and also letting our family just sort of soak it all in. We did the 90-minute version which was the perfect amount of time both in terms of time out on the water and the amount of 'ground' we were able to cover. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun, active, and unique experience.
Thanks for the awesome review! We’re so glad your family of four chose us for your introduction to Melbourne. It’s great to hear that the 90-minute tour gave you the perfect "lay of the land" (or water!) and covered plenty of ground while still feeling relaxed. We appreciate the high recommendation and would love to welcome you all back for another active adventure whenever you're next in town!
It was an outstanding experience. We came all the way from Adelaide to wxperience these kinda activities in Melbourne and glad that we chose this one too 😍😍 Our guide was amazing and the beautiful view of the city from Yarra River was breath taking 🥹
Thank you so much for the fantastic review! We are honored that you chose to include us in your trip all the way from Adelaide. Knowing that we helped make your Melbourne experience "outstanding" truly made our day. We’re glad you enjoyed that breathtaking perspective of the city from the water—there really is no better seat in the house than on a waterbike! We’ll be sure to share your kind words with your guide, who will be thrilled to know they made your tour so memorable.
Went as a family of 4 on 2 tandem bikes. Was lovely and relaxing and a wonderful and fun way to see the city. Our boys (aged 6 and 10) loved it. The hosts were lovely. Definitely recommend.
Thank you so much for the glowing review! We are thrilled to hear that your family had such a wonderful and relaxing time out on the Yarra. It’s always a highlight for us to see families enjoying our tandem bikes—it sounds like your boys (aged 6 and 10) are absolute naturals on the water!
Mark and Laury are awesome guides and really gave us the best Water bike experience! They were great conversationalists, were full of knowledge of Melbourne, and were also very concious of our safety. I HIGHLY recommend this tour to everyone who wants a nice relaxing and fun bike on the Yarra River.

My niece who lives in Oz challenged me to find something ‘touristy’ she’d never done! This activity fitted that challenge and was better than expected! It was brilliant from start to finish (we did 90 mins) The bikes were easy to peddle and the sights were phenomenal from upon the water! Would a thousand per cent recommend x

Great fun option to tour the CBD in Melbourne. Mark pointed out all the important sites along the Yarra River, and told us the history of the city's growth. Fun and easy recumbent bike, comfortable seat and easy to maneuver. Book it, you won't regret it!
Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We're thrilled you had such a fun time touring the CBD sights from the Yarra.
Mark is great. Advice to other tourists: if weather not suitable, ask if time change is possible. They are always very accomodating. My friend and I had a lovely time, guided by Mark along the Yarra River. He has been patient in explaining how the water bikes work, and showing us the Melbourne landmarks. While we’re cycling on the water, he took multiple photos of us at different spots - making this trip even more memorable. I highly recommend Waterbikes Australia for a relaxing bike cruise around the Yarra river, as well as getting Mark as your guide. On a final note, my advice to others booking the tour is: always check the weather and if it looks unfavourable at the timing you’ve booked, you could try requesting for a time change. They’re very accomodating and won’t hesitate to fit you in if they can.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was a pleasure having you and your friend on the Yarra River tour, and I’m so glad you had a memorable experience. We always do our best to be flexible with timing when the weather isn’t ideal, so we really appreciate you sharing that advice with future guests. It’s great to hear you enjoyed the sights, the ride, and of course, the photos to capture the moment! Hope to see you back on the water again soon for another adventure!
This river offers an excellent viewpoint to see all the sites in the Southbank. Our hosts were awesome! They emailed us all the best pictures - for free! The bike is easy to pedal but the seat is a bit uncomfortable.
Thank you for your review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the incredible views of Southbank from the Yarra and had a great time with our team. Capturing and sharing those special moments is all part of the experience, so we're happy you loved the photos! 📸 We appreciate your feedback about the seat and will take it into consideration to keep improving. Hope to see you back on the water for another ride soon!
One of the best days out! Such an incredible experience and a wonderful team! Great tour and friendly accomodating staff.
