This was an unforgettable and wonderful experience! Started at sun-up, navigated around the harbour, had great views, eat a really good breakfast at Neutral Bay, and throughout was entertained by Sam our guide. Highly recommended for anyone who likes to kayak in beautiful surroundings.

This kayak and breakfast tour was a highlight of our trip. We got to paddle under the Harbour Bridge, or the “Coat Hanger”, and around a few coves to our breakfast spot and then back again. Breakfast included a delicious drink and meal in a cozy spot looking over the water. The food was incredible, and beautifully presented. The owner was fun to chat to. Sam, our guide, was informative, fun to talk to, and made sure we were having a fun time throughout. He was attentive to safety and ensured we stayed well away from the ferries. To be noted, we greatly appreciate that Sam didn’t cancel our booking even though we were the only ones that booked on this time slot. We are so thankful we were able to do this paddle. We highly recommend this incredible adventure and opportunity.

Personalized Harbor Tour with Brekkie!

Carter_J, Mar 2026
Awesome experience kayaking under the bridge and around Kirribilli to Neutral Bay. Sam was very informative and an awesome guide! Breakfast at Neutral Bay was a pleasant pit stop to fuel up for the paddle back. Highly recommended as we saw other tours that appeared more chaotic and unorganized. If you're looking for a more personal tour that allows you to relax and enjoy the harbor, look no further.

Vi_N, Mar 2026
It was an awesone tour around the habour with the added brekkie. Guide knew when we wanted our moments as well as coming in to give us information of the places around the habour. Roughly an hour to and from the brekkie spot. View was amazing, lots of opportunity to take photos and take in the atmosphere

This is not one the best kayak vows of the famous Sydney Opera House and Bridge as you paddle under the later and by the first but it also is a wonderful way to see one neighbor by launching and another at the fabulous breakfast spot. Very safe guide and good kayaks, paddles. Highly recommend.

Morning Breakfast Paddle Twin Kayak Sydney Harbour

Nigel_B, Jan 2026
Just wanted to say how fantastic and memorable our morning breakfast paddle was, from messages from Sam earlier in the week explaining what to wear, bring also timings and meeting place, on the morning a briefing on how the twin kayaks work, front & back, how to get into the kayak, how to row, excellent detailed instructions giving total piece of mind for any ability. Absolutely stunning paddle out into the harbour underneath the Harbour Bridge and around to the islands around to the left, where awaits a wonderful cafe Thelma and Louise, amazing breakfast, very relaxed and then all set for the return journey. Amazing to create incredible memories, thank you Sam 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Sam also took photos 📸 so no stress there wondering about your phone. Totally book this Morning Breakfast Paddle 🙏🙏

Good fun, and besides helping to support the maintenance of a tall ship, you can climb the mast if you want.

Great experience with a brilliant guide

Danielle_C, Jun 2025
Brilliant experience! Sam was a great guide and gave us a tow when we were struggling against the wind. Had a lovely breakfast at the halfway point and Sam gave us lots of recommendations for places to eat or visit. Would definitely do it again (but maybe not in winter)

Perfect Morning

Jeremy_O, Jun 2025
The tour was even better than expected. It was the perfect way to start the morning. The paddle was really fun, and Sam did an excellent job guiding us through the harbour and pointing out interesting landmarks and trivia. Breakfast was delicious at a wonderful cafe overlooking a bay. The paddle was well-paced, with opportunities for photos and to chat. Highly recommend to anyone.
