Ascot Waters Tour
No experience necessary. This half day tour which takes you through a beautiful conservation area just a few kilometres from the Perth CBD. Paddle up the scenic Swan River to a little know beach for lunch.
Glide through the tranquil Ascot Waters bordered by ponds, boardwalks and parks. Return by the historic ‘Peninsula Farm’ home to Tranby house and the Maylands Amateur Boat Building Yard.
We capture your kayaking experience with some action shots to show and share with others and to keep for your own memories.
Enjoy a scrumptious lunch, picnic style with lost of home made goodies like home made bread, banana jam, tapenade, caramelised onions and sticky date pudding.
This is an opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle and embrace the serenity. You share the river with ducks, swans, pelicans and other water birds.
Happenstance encounters with nature are memorable as will be this tour.
