★★★★★ ★★★★★ Peaceful paddling Sophie 29 January 2022 We had a lovely few hours on the river - alternating between paddling and floating gently down the river. Rob drove us there - telling us all we needed to know about the surrounding history and wildlife - and provided us with the equipment we needed. Lovely trip.
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Kayaking fun in the Goulburn Judy 11 November 2018 So relaxing paddling a kayak down the Goulburn river, viewing many birds along the way.
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Canoeing on the Goulburn - relaxing & fun. Judy 10 November 2018 We set off in a 2 person kayak for a 10 km paddle down the Goulburn river near Wyuna. It was so peaceful and we spotted many cockatoos feeding along the banks of the river, most ignoring our presence. Various species of ducks were seen as well as an eagle’s nest. We alternated between paddling and drifting with the current - it was so peaceful. Although we had not previously done much kayaking, we didn’t find it difficult and no one got wet!
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Relax and let go. Vaibhav 6 March 2017 We received a half day canoe adventure in the lower Goulburn National Park as a wedding anniversary gift. We finally got around to using our gift only a couple of weeks back. The booking process was straightforward. I emailed Rob and he promptly got back confirming the availability of the tour. However, he asked for me to get in touch with him a couple of days before the date to check the weather and river conditions. It was all good and we headed to Tatura. This is where we were given further instructions by Rob to the actual spot where we could meet him with the canoe. This spot was about 30-35 minutes away from Tatura. After we met Rob, he asked us to follow behind him to park the car which would mark the end of our canoeing adventure. He then drove us about 12km upstream and on the way talked at length about life in the bush in this part of the town. He talked about the impact the levee had had on the local vegetation who were accustomed to flood events once every 15-20 years. After a drive through the bush we reached our spot to start our canoeing adventure. We were handed out our safety vests and a cold bag with water. After a briefing we were let loose. We started canoeing at around 1pm and Rob did say that we were the last group for the day. The river appeared very muddy but was calm. There were loads of birds chirping about but we did not encounter anyone else canoeing for a very very long time. The dead trees with their branches sticking out of the water proved to be quite challenging and made manoeuvring the canoe a whole lot of fun. My wife and I shared many moments of silence paddling quietly down the river with only the birds, gentle breeze and water giving us company. Canoeing might sound like a daunting task but it turned out to be such a relaxing and meditative experience. The sun was just right, so was the tail-wind. It was a perfect day to canoe down the Goulburn river. Tips ------ - It would be a good idea to carry something to eat whilst canoeing. We forgot to carry our fruits and pies and left them behind in the car. - Definitely carry a camera. Rob provides you with a waterproof bag.
★★★★★ ★★★★★ great canoe experience Chris 25 October 2016 A really fun experience. The Goulburn River was in flood when we wanted to go (October 2016) , so Rob arranged to take us to the Campaspe River at Echuca instead. The river was high but not flowing fast, so it was easy to paddle upstream for a while, have a break, then canoe back downstream. It was fascinating to see the river so high. Lots of bird life along the way. Rob was easy to deal with and gave us a choice of a couple of different canoes, or kayaks. We went with a canoe and had a ball.
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Great fun family experience tanyajase 6 December 2014 Nice and relaxing and fun for the kids. Staff were excellent and so friendly.
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Nothing to look at BamBam1725 29 April 2014 Very dissapointed as due to the nature of the river being so far below the surounding country side there was nothing to look at except a continual muddy bank. if it was not for the trees in the water it would have been a real bore.... sorry guys, Your service was great but the product is not worth it .....cheers
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Fantastic way to spend half a day Apples27 26 March 2014 We had a fantastic trip down the Goulburn river. Saw wild goats and a platypus! Enjoyed the serenity of the river as well as the occasional challenge of fallen tree which required some basic navigation to negotiate. Overall- highly recommended.
