Nice trip with lead heavy kayaks price quality out of balance

Jil and Gemma did a great job on this beautiful trip and knew a lot to tell with a nice lunch on piquin island. We have seen seals, piquins, dolphins, pelicans that nested that was totally top and super fun. Unfortunately, the equipment they get from their employer rivergods is worn and poorly maintained. Furthermore, it is arranged in such a way that participants with quite heavy kayaks from a trailer in the parking lot have to walk quite a way down the dune and beach. This was extra difficult for us as we are not allowed to lift heavily due to operations and something I would not expect for over $400. The price quality is way out of balance.
Must do from Perth!

So much fun! this was our first time kayaking and we had a blast. our group was people in their 20s to people in their 50s-60s and it was so fun. Ella and Gemma taught our group everything we needed to know and one stayed in front of the group and one behind to make sure no one was left behind. we got to see the sea lions laying out in the sun and going for a swim! we had a very delicious picnic and nature walk seeing the native wildlife and coast lines. I would give them 100 stars if I could
Super trip with lasting memories.

We had a totally nice guide with a lot of knowledge about landscape and animals. The kayak tour was great. There were breathtaking views, many seabirds (including breeding bird colonies) and sea lions.
Great day out

We had a wonderful trip with Seabirds and Seals today. We saw so many birds, and lots of photo opportunities. I would recommend booking at the start of your holiday, so if the trip is cancelled due to bad weather you will have the opportunity to go on an other day.
Best last day in Perth

It was a great day! We got to see plenty of seals and enjoy a lunch in the shade and a walk around penguin island followed by some snorkelling in the clear water. On the way back Simon, our tour guide, let us snorkel a bit more to be able to see the dolphins we spotted, which was the perfect end to a lovely day.
Dolphins, seals & penguins

A thoroughly enjoyable experience out in nature. We were very well looked after and our guides did everything possible to ensure we had a great day. The kayaks are heavy - be prepared to do a bit of lifting.
