Review of: Melbourne City Twilight Kayak Tour
Another excellent paddle with Sea Kayak Australia. Both Dave and Cam we wonderful guides, instructions were clear and concise. Paddling along the Yarra taking in the sunset and of course the gas flames out the front of the Casino was amazing. We have done other paddles with the company and will continue to use and recommend, thanks guys for a great evening.…

So glad to have had this experience. As a Melbournian I was surprised how beautiful the Yarra is when on the water and how pretty the city looked. The staff at Sea Kayak were friendly and professional and they covered safety and training very well. The timing of the tour is perfect - get yo experience full sun then sunset then experience the lights of the city reflecting on the water as it gets dark. The pace was quite swift so you need to be reasonably fit but it was worth it to travel so far and see so much. The only downside was the snacks - could have been better. I really enjoyed the evening and would love to do it again! …
