What To Expect
Your tour will begin at 11.00 when we will meet at the Margaret River mouth, Prevelly Beach. Please note we do not pick up for this tour. You’ll be greeted at Surfers Point where the river meets the ocean. After our introductions and a safety briefing, we'll launch at 11.00 am, paddling upstream past cliffs, pioneer and aboriginal sites in our stable canoes. Access to the river is very restricted so there are no powerboats and the ecosystem is almost untouched, boasting an abundance of wildlife, unique coastal forests and tranquil waters. Lunch will be served around 1 pm served and includes an exotic selection of wild food tastes from all over Western Australia, including kangaroo, emu and crocodile along with wild nut pesto, quandongs, bush tomatoes and much more. Vegetarians are well catered for. After lunch, we’ll paddle a little further upstream past forested kangaroo habitats and learn the history of our first native inhabitants and the trials of the famous Bussell family who were among the first European settlers in the region. There will be opportunities for unique photos, fun in the sun before we meander back downstream or race for a bottle of Margaret River wine.

4.00Good fun, knowledgeable guide. Would have been useful to know that lunch was pretty much all bushtucker when you have fussy eaters but good time had by all. We’ll be achy tomorrow. Thank you

5.00The bushtucker canoe tour was a unique, informative and exciting experience for us in our Margaret river holiday. The online booking was easy to do, clear comms about the starting point , and what to bring for the tour. The tour guide Emma was very helpful and got us into our canoes after an initial briefing. All four of us could stay together in one canoe. Emma provided us wonderful insights into the natural flora and fauna and history of the region during the tour. We stopped for a picnic lunch which included many options for vegetarians like us and they were mostly made with indigenous ingredients. The flavours were exotic unique and tasty offering us a different culinary experience. The canoe ride back in slightly windy conditions was challenging but just to the level required to make it interesting! Highly recommend this tour if you’re in the region.

5.00Best day out in Margaret River. Emma, our guide, shared her knowledge of the river, aboriginal stories pertaining to the area, plus the foraged berries nuts fruits and meats to invigorate the group for the journey. It was interesting, exciting spotting birds and peaceful. A wonderful group of people of all ages made it even more pleasurable! Thank you again, Emma!
Bushtucker feast (not a bushtucker trial)

5.00Our Bushtucker canoe trip up the river was excellent. Our guide Emma was a fountain of knowledge and her enthusiasm for the area was infectious. The scenery was spectacular and the bush tucker lunch was surprisingly delicious. Swimming in the river is completely safe as the sandbar across the entrance prevents any sharks getting into the river. We would thoroughly recommend this trip (especially if Emma is your guide).

5.00This was a wonderful trip, surely very underrated. The Margaret River was lovely and the water pristine. We saw almost no development. The highlight was swimming in the river. The shore lunch was a surprise delight. Our guide Adam was perfect. Very friendly but helped us with no complaints if our canoes had an issue. He was also very knowledgeable about the history, flora and fauna of the river. Canoeing experience is not needed but you do need to get in and out of the canoe.
