Chris and the team were AMAZING! Honestly the best morning ever, the views were insane. The team made sure we stayed together, had a few breaks (cause let’s be honest it’s tough kayaking that early!). They made sure to position us to get the best photos ever. Great team and experience I would totally recommend anyone to go book this. Even if you don’t like early mornings trust me it’s worth it!

The NYE fireworks tour yesterday was fantastic! The Marina in Rushcutters Bay is easy to reach by public transport, even on a traditionally hectic day such as New Years Eve. All kayaks are brand new and top quality - an important thing to make you feel safe and comfortable. The route and the viewing point were very well chosen for safety and a superb view of the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House. The number of crew and their skills and dedication were wonderful, and very reassuring to a beginner paddler like me. Thank you, guys - Liam, Chris - for an absolutely stunning experience!

Honestly - WOW! I have lived in Sydney for 10 years, and this was one of the BEST experiences I have done. The sunrise is so incredibly peaceful, and the crew allow you time to soak to all in. I was pretty nervous beforehand, however as soon as the crew got my into my kayak and onto the water I felt so calm and safe. The whole experience was seamless. Would highly recommend - the BEST team who's energy was so genuine and caring!
