Members from South Dublin Badminton Group had a wonderful experience last Saturday 22nd November 2025 with City Kayaking on the River Liffey. Seeing our lovely city from the kayaks was unusual but we really got the time to really see Dublin from a different angle. The tour was lots of fun from start to finish; with plenty of laughs and our competitive streak showing. It was very easy to book as a Group with City Kayaking and I felt it was very well organised and run. I would highly recommend this tour.

We took this service yesterday and had a great experience. Jonathan was very patient, helpful, and a good trainer/teacher. It was grey, cold, and windy day but we had a wonderful and memorable experience. I would recommend this adventure. Note that your pants/legs will get wet from the water dripping from the paddle.

I had an absolutely incredible time kayaking in Dublin! The whole experience was so well-organized from start to finish: friendly guides, great equipment, and a relaxed atmosphere that made it enjoyable for everyone, whether you’re a beginner or more experienced. Paddling along the water gave such a unique perspective of the city, with stunning views and a really peaceful vibe away from the bustle of the streets. The guides shared fun insights about Dublin’s history and landmarks, which made it even more memorable. I left feeling refreshed, energized, and already planning my next trip back. Highly recommend this to anyone visiting or living in Dublin, it’s an experience you won’t forget!

très belle expérience avec 2 enfants de 7 et 3 ans .

Our guide definitely did not want to be there. He shared very minimal information (but the few nuggets he gave us were interesting). He was in a motorboat, sometimes quite a bit ahead of the last people in our group, staring at his phone. Has someone capsized in the back of our group, he would have had no idea. The chances of capsizing are low because there is no wake or waves, so at least there is that. And kayaking is fun no matter how bored the guide or how icky the water so 3 stars.

Très bon moment. Les guides très gentils

Myself and a group of friends did the music under the bridges experience this Sat. The experience itself its brilliant, great to get out onto the Liffey and see the city from a different perspective and the musician was brilliant. My only feedback was the guide - he was so grumpy and rude it totally killed the vibe. Its hard to relax and enjoy "dirty old town" being sung on the Liffey when youve just been screamed at for daring to have a giggle at any point. Understandably safety is key, but a a more personable delivery of instructions and the space to at least crack a smile at some point would have really made the experience far more memorable.
