VALENTINES DAY $155pp
Saturday 14 Feb 

Celebrate Valentine’s Day in a truly unforgettable way with our Twilight Kayak Glow Worm Tour.

Paddle gently through the calm evening waters as the sun sets, creating the perfect romantic atmosphere. As darkness falls, you’ll drift beneath a magical canopy of glow worms lighting up the riverbanks like a sky full of stars, a once-in-a-lifetime experience to share with someone special.

This special Valentine’s twilight departure is available as an upgrade from our normal tour. Spaces are limited, so please contact us to secure your spot and make your Valentine’s adventure extra magical.

We'll take you on an adventure... we'll get you geared up, teach you the ropes before you paddle, and make a splash. In the water you'll find your rhythm as you paddle and take in the surrounding sights. Soak in up without getting wet!
