Fantastic 90 mins. - A great 90 mins kayaking on the river, good fun and a different view of the city. Blake our guide was fantastic.

So much fun! - There were maybe 10 people total for our group. Instructor Alex was very knowledgeable about how to get into the kayak, how to adjust the life vest, what to do if you happen to flip, and most importantly, how to get back into the kayak if an impromptu swim happens. Everyone stayed in their kayaks, but don't think this means you won't get wet, especially if you have not kayaked before! Fortunately, the weather cooperated, and I did not mind. It seems to be all in the handling of the paddle. We shared the river with ferries, City Cats, private boats, and jet ski's, which caused a bit of turbulence on the water. If you're a newby, just turn your nose into it, keep your arms, and paddle low. and don't panic! I ended up looking forward to the wakes. We started out against the current then paddled back to the starting point with the current. Smart planning, since my arms, at least, were like noodles by then. Alex kept track of all of us, checking in to make sure we were doing all right and offering suggestions along the way. Had a great time and look forward to doing this again with my next Brisbane visit!

Special Experience - It was my first time trying this sport and there were some difficulties for me, it was hard for me to keep up with the others. Thank you very much for Alex's help and encouragement. His explanation and introduction are very clear and kind, and he has always encouraged me to finish. All in all, it was a very special experience.

Lots of fun. - Alex was a great guide and conversationalist. I had lots of questions about Brisbane’s infrastructure, neighborhoods, and politics and he had great knowledge about it all! Really great way to see the city and learn a bit about the country I’m visiting.

Very Happy Kayakers!! - Really enjoyed my first kayaking experience with Mitch who was an awesome instructor and full of local knowledge. The views from the river were superb. I am 57 years old and was worried about getting in and out of the kayak but staff made it feel safe, easy and were very supportive. Both my friend and I loved it and will be doing this activity again when we are in Brisbane.

Good times - Good equipment, really clear instructions, great staff, instructor Mitch knows what he’s talking about and doing. Fun times!

Great fun, bring a change of clothes. - A beautiful way to see parts of the city, and fun. I have occasionally kayaked before but am no expert, and our instructor & guide kept us safe & assisted two of our group when each got into difficulty. (One lagged behind and the guide towed them to us, the other went for a “swim”.) A lovely way to while away some time.

Great value for kids birthday parties and family adventures - Great kids kayaking birthday party - very patient instructor Oscar, coped well with 'varied' ability and energy levels, and plenty of humour to keep the adults entertained.

kayaking with Riverlife - great experience! - Thanks to Riverlife we had an incredible experience kayaking the Brisbane river with my family. Alec, our instructor, was amazing! Very patient with our teenage son, who has not had much experience kayaking by himself. A great time has by all and highly recommended Riverlife as a tour operator.

Quickie Kayak Adventure - Felt safe, enjoyed the experience. Definitely gives a whole different look on the Brisbane River. Would recommend to single, couples or groups.
