Tipping Info

If you are happy with the services provided by your local guides and drivers a tip - though not compulsory - is appropriate. While it may not be customary to you, it is of great significance to the people who will take care of you during your travels, inspires excellent service, and is an entrenched feature of the tourism industry across many Intrepid Urban Adventures destinations. Please consider this when budgeting for your extra expenses on this trip

Itinerary

This is a stunning way to check out all major iconic sights of Melbourne from a unique water-level perspective.  After a quick briefing and paddling lesson, participants will get kitted up and head downriver under the Princes Bridge and into the heart of Melbourne.   The tour will continue along the Yarra past Flinders Station and up to the iconic Polly Woodside Tallship at South Wharf before entering the Docklands precinct and the beautiful Yarra’s Edge Marina. After a short break the paddlers then head back upstream past Crown Casino and the lively South Bank district before finishing back at Boathouse Drive. 
This tour is a good length for younger paddlers who can team up with Mum or Dad or one of our guides. No paddling experience is necessary. Our guides will be with you every step of the way.  With a fleet of extremely stable Sea Bear sea kayaks, the experience will be even easier for first-time paddlers.
