Cần Quan Tâm

We meet at our kayak shed on the North Esk river (Launceston Seaport) for a briefing and fitting of safety gear We get the group into our foot powered kayaks and once ready make our way downstream to the junction with the River Tamar (Kanamaluka) your guide will lead the group down the Tamar on the right past the old docks and then cross the river and come back upstream past the yacht basin The next leg is the scenic stretch under the old kings bridge and into the lower reaches of the Cataract Gorge on the South Esk river. The cliffs on each side make for a stunning back drop and excellent place to take some photos of the experience. We return to the North Esk river and have a look at some historic buildings before retuning to the kayak pontoon The order of the tour may sometimes be changed to make the best of the tides and match the abilities and interests of the group as a whole

Loved it. Went early. Overcast, peaceful and fairly quiet and still. Birds, lots of river foam after recent heavy rains and our small group easily covered a remarkable distance in the time allotted, both along the river and up the gorge. Well run and good kayaks.
Wonderful cruise

Wonderful relaxing and informative journey. Amazing weather, and a great vantage point on the foredeck. Captain Callum, and crew JJ and Jason, couldn’t have been better. The section of the cruise through the gorge was a highlight.
Wonderful Kayaking experience

We thoroughly enjoyed the pedal kayaks - great way to view the Cataract gorge as well as Launceston riverfront. Aaron was a delightful guide, he was kind enough to reschedule our tour due to unsuitable weather conditions - highly recommend this activity if you are in Launceston.
