Program details

Immerse yourself in the spiritual heart of Melbourne with this breathtaking action-packed kayak tour. Explore downtown Melbourne on the water and enjoy awesome views of the city skyline as you paddle along the Yarra River. Then, as the sun goes down, enjoy a bird’s eye view of the city from the Melbourne’s Eureka Skydeck 88 and watch the place come to life.

Get acquainted with your kayak as you explore the Docklands area before tucking into some tasty fish-n-chips, a special ‘on water’ dining experience. After the meal the tour continues on upstream on the Yarra River, under the modern Bolte Bridge with its eye-catching twin silver towers and through to Melbourne’s lively downtown. Paddle past the Crown Casino and alongside stylish Southbank, an inner urban neighbourhood and thriving business district. Glide on past Flinders Street Railway Station and beneath the historic Princes Bridge, built on the site of one of the oldest river crossings in Australia. You then arrive at the approach to Melbourne’s enormous sporting precinct, home to the famous Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) and Rod Laver Arena.

At the end of the tour, Skydeck 88 is only a short stroll away, offering unparalleled views over the city.
