🌅Brilliant Sunset Kayak – So Worth It! - We did the sunset kayak with Australian Kayaking Adventure, and it was absolutely fantastic! Our guide Alex was super friendly, patient, and full of good vibes. He gave clear instructions, shared heaps of interesting facts about the area, and made sure everyone felt safe and confident out on the water.
The paddling was a bit of a workout, but the views at sunset made it all worth it. Alex also snapped some awesome photos for us, which turned out beautifully!
He even took us to try to spot some bats. We didn’t see them at the park, but we ended up seeing many on the way back to our hotel, which was such a cool surprise.
Overall, it was an amazing experience, relaxing, fun, and beautifully organised. Couldn’t recommend it more. Cheers to Alex for making it such a memorable trip!

The only thing to complain about was the cloud cover. - I had this rescheduled by the operator because of the a strong current building in the waterways the evening before, but the tour operator was very quick to respond when I asked if it was worth moving it to the day after.
Guide was quite informative and was patient despite the differences in skill level across the group. Maybe, my only suggestion would be that I would have been happy to pay more to sit down for a snack or something at Macintosh Island, but that's not to say anything was wrong with it as it is.
Nothing bad to say about this trip. The only complaint was that unfortunately, it clouded over, but the tour operator can hardly be blamed for that! If you get a chance and you know it will be a clear day in the evening, this one is worth doing to wrap up your day.

Fantastic guide and an equally cherishing experience - A great overall experience right from booking till the end. Viator helpdesk was very approachable and helpful. The kayaking is not too challenging and good for someone looking for a relaxing experience. The guide was helpful and made sure everyone was taken care of. Great location, peaceful waters, parking available. Overall a must try

poor service and not worth for the price - Charged $138 and gave us 1 kayak to share for 2 people. Probably more than half the time was spent on a small park on macintosh island. didn't help us get in and out of the kayak.
not worth at all for the price.

Disappointing kayak - I was unimpressed by the owner. Wasn’t that very helpful in the water when slowed down. Made his assistant do a lot of the work.

Too bad. - There will be a cancellation email before 1pm on the day of your booking starting at 4.30pm. It's very disappointing because I was looking forward to it. Please complete the refund process

Not worth the money - The day we went was raining. The organisers should have canceled considering the weather. Also, we were asked to carry our own kayaks across the road in which we were not provided any help for.
