Limited to just you and your crew, you’ll explore only where you wish, turning your day in Kilkenny into a customized, family-friendly adventure.

We are life time paddlers, sharing your passion, incorporating fun, learning and awareness of river and its surrounds. Your customers get personal attention and feel very safe and love your tours which are adapted to people's energy and ability. You will paddle double kayaks up and back down through Kilkenny and see historical buildings which dominate the City skyline. The tour can include white water paddling over a weir, playing in the rapids if that is of interest. If you prefer to stay dry, that's your choice of course and we do provide over-trousers to keep you pretty dry. If you prefer, one of your guides can paddle the double kayak with you for extra stability to ensure that we maximize your enjoyment and safety. Visual highlights include Kilkenny Castle, The Tholsel, St Francis Abbey, the old home of Smithwick's Brewery and St Canice's Cathedral.
