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.
