“Kayaking on the Brisbane river is fantastic!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 February 2012
5
people found this review helpful

I went kayaking on the Brisbane river with three friends. We had a lot of fun. The Riverlife instructor was very friendly and helful. The session lasted one hour and a half. Kayaking is physicaly fairly demanding in particular paddling. It was a very relaxing experience going along the river. It's also an occasion to see the river and the city from a different perspective.
It's a good activty to do with friends and family.

Great for visitors and locals alike. You can arrange alot of activities here but speaking from personal experience ive only tried the Kayaks. Great set up, easy to turn up and be in the water within 15-20 mins. Not cheap but fun all the same.

Light summer rain was really fun and created a special experience for a girls night out! Really surprised with the quality of food and to get wines included in the price

I am sorry you needed to cancel your kayaking experience and we have given you the option to reschedule and have offered to send out a gift voucher for your choice of six different activities with Riverlife. I apologise if you are unhappy with our terms and conditions, but they are designed to be fair to all participants. We do not have as much flexibility with heavily discounted group buying deals when they are purchased at less the 40% of retail value. We try our best to always deliver very good customer service and we hope you are able to accept the options we have put to you and enjoy these. I am the owner of Riverlife and I am happy for you to contact me directly on email address john at riverlife.com.au. I hope you recover from your injury soon.
