I was excited to try white water kayaking but definitely a bit hesitant at first. Matt and Lukas's clear instruction and demonstrations, coupled with their contagious enthusiasm and obvious mastery of the sport, immediately put me at ease and ensured I came away from the experience with new skills and confidence as well a memory that will last a life time! My only point of caution is that there is a very high chance that following your experience with Candlebox Kayaking you will be hooked on a new water sport and shopping for new gear :) I would recommend Candlebox Kayaking to anyone without hesitation." - Stef, Google Review Duration: Approx 4hrs Please book at least 48hrs in advance.
