Customer Reviews

What a great way to start our first time in Sydney! Josh, Brandon, Ben, Don (barista), and team were so amazing with getting us checked in, having the equipment and getting us all settled to see an amazing sunrise on Sydney Harbor. Ben’s stories were cool to hear and overall it was good company to have as we explored the harbor and bridge. I totally recommend this experience. Minimal skill needed as the crew was supervising everyone the whole time. It’s a nice touch that they will take pictures of you throughout the kayak trip! Finally the coffee was very well made!

Such an amazing experience with Sydney by Kayak! I did the sunrise kayak as part of a group and had Ben, Will and Kathryn as our guides — they were all so lovely and incredibly friendly. Even though I came along solo, they made sure to take loads of photos for me, which I really appreciated. The sunrise was absolutely incredible and such a special way to see Sydney. The oat chai latte (included!) was honestly the best one I’ve ever had, and drinking it while out on the kayak made the experience even better. I’d 100% recommend this — truly unforgettable 🌅🛶☕️

Perfect team bonding exercise! Our guided Tom was friendly, helpful and so full of great stories. Paddling on the harbour and seeing the city from such a different vantage point was priceless. And we hardly even got wet at all! What a brilliant way to start the day. Thank you! Highly recommended.
