Family fun on the River - Great way to see downtown Milwaukee with family, friends or even going solo. Don’t be intimidated, you have two rivers to choose from. The Milwaukee river has some boat traffic, amazing views of buildings, Murals and draw bridges. The other river option is the Menominee river, less boat traffic if this is a concern. We rented two tandem kayaks for a four hour window and chose the Milwaukee river, no disappointment. The other option would be a tour led by a guide, less confident might want the guided tour option. Good idea to have a dry bag if your planing on bringing along, wallets, phone, keys etc. If you don’t have a dry bag, they sell them for $20.00. Some restaurants located on the river have availability to Moore your kayak. Remember to keep track of your time if you decide to make a stop.

Seeing the City from a New Perspective - Seeing the Milwaukee River by kayak was an amazing experience. To take in all the life on and around the river on a summer Saturday was exhilarating. It's a way to see a city from a whole new perspective.
The staff were competent, helpful, and friendly.

Highly recommended to locals and visitors! - My husband and I had a great time with Brew City Kayak. They provided us with a tandem kayak, which we were glad to have!
David, our tour guide, gave us a briefing on safety and paddling; and that was greatly appreciated. He had great conversation and was good with answering questions.
Know that will find some traffic on the Milwaukee River (sightseeing boats,paddling boats,etc...), so tandem kayaks are a great option; specially if you are beginner!
Highly recommended to locals and visitors!
