Kayaking on Danube close to the city center

The tour was very safe and the leader Peter was super nice! The price was very reasonable and they had some classic kayaks. The tour is fitted to all levels!!! Excellent

We had such a wonderful experience with Ondrej! It was a great way to see a quieter side of Bratislava and get some travel tips from a local. We got to see some wildlife and had a such a blast. We also weren’t expecting to get such professional photos out of the experience, but what a great surprise that was. Highly recommend!

Very knowledgeable and patient guide on the water. Dušan helped two inexperienced kayakists (us) navigate the Danube through some strong currents and even gave us tips on the way. His enthusiasm and love for paddling comes through immediately. The kayak club was full of history, and Dušan was kind enough to give us a brief tour too.

My wife and I decided to do this so we could see Bratislava from a different view and we were both keen to try our hand at some canoeing (we've done it a few times before but never on a big river).

We struggled slightly to find the meeting place but when we found it we were a little early so decided to sit on a bench and wait since it was a fair walk from our hotel, we were not really made to feel very welcome as it looked like they were setting up for some sort of party but we waited for our guide. Our guide turned up and greeted us but didn't introduce herself so we didn't find out her name until later, nothing was ready for us so we had to help setup which wasn't a major issue and after going through the basics of how to use a paddle and get in/out of the canoe we were ready to go.

Once we were out on the river I noticed our guide sticking close to the shoreline, assuming this was to keep an eye on things I didn't think anything of it until we got caught in a swell and struggled to get passed it, afterwards out guide warned us that there were some parts of the river where there was rocks under the water that caused the swell and sticking by the shoreline was the best thing to do in order to avoid this, would have been good to know before hand but hey ho.

During the trip our guide didn't speak to us much other than to ask if we would like a break which was needed after the amount of effort fighting the current. She didn't even advise us to bring water or anything with us so she sipped on her water whilst we had to wait till we were back at the shore.

I wouldn't recommend this trip to anyone that is expecting to have a guided tour or any advice on canoeing, at best this trip is escorted canoe rental so if that's what you're after then fill your boots, I would also recommend not to take this trip if you have never canoed before and are expecting any help or advice on how to canoe, learn before you try this as it's very difficult for beginners. The trip did have some nice moments where we were able to see the city from the river but that was few and far between.

My advice to the people that run this trip would be to show some more enthusiasm towards this trip and the people on it, help those that look like they are having difficulty and maybe provide some insight into the city and the canoe club as there's lots of history in the city, also maybe provide some advice on how to dress, what to bring and what to expect on the day as we didn't receive anything like that and being advised to bring a change of clothes or swimming costumes, bottled water etc would have been really useful information to have especially for beginners.

A great trip on the Danube. Easy to find and helpful pre event information. Peter was very helpful and informative and providedgood instructions. Very friendly club with changing facilities and lockers. Decent kayaks and life jackets provided.

Great kayak experience on the Danube. The guide was good with some interesting facts about landmarks on the riverbank! He was happy to ask any questions about Bratislava. Place to leave belongings/ change andwas greeted with a coffees

The kayaking was brilliant, we saw beautiful views of the city and the some lovely peaceful nature spots! The guide Peter was knowledgable and gave us a good safety briefing beforehand. He also took lots of great photos of us during the trip. We would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a fun activity in Bratislava.

Excellent guide. Very personable. We had so much fun! We felt safe and looked after. Beautiful views of the city from the river.

We started in the morning for this tour, the place is a bit hard to find so keep a few minutes in hand to be there in time. Our tour guide was Katarina, she was very friendly and helpful. She gave us a few tips before we started and as both myself and my partner are beginners she was patient with all our questions until we were sure.
We started upstream of Danube first which was a difficult task but that was the hardest bit. We then kayaked downstream and could enjoy the views while making sure not to steer away from the coast. We kayaked for a little over two hours, it was a fun way of exploring the city and locate the landmarks while trying not to topple over. Our guide brought us back to the shore a few times when we were swayed into the center by the strong currents. It was overall great fun!!

Absolutely an amazing experience! The host was great, she even took us swimming down the River after the kayaking tour! Highly recommend to anyone who likes outdoor activities!

My girlfriend and I took a trip together to Budapest for the wedding of one of our mutual friends. On one of our free days, we took a train to Slovakia, to go kayaking on the Danube river. Onjrej, our guide, was absolutely perfect. He was very knowledgeable of the area, sharing local history along our tour, and made our time with him feel safe and comfortable. This little visit was a bit impromptu, but it was the highlight of our trip. Highly recommended.

Our small group of three had an absolutely fantastic time out on the water today!
Our guide made sure to recommend us some lovely places to go and she was wonderfully patient and understanding with an anxious member of our group. Couldn’t have asked for a better day out

We were beginners at kayaking. The guide Katerina was very patient and helpful and we enjoyed being on the water. She gave us a great tip for a local place to grab a beer after kayaking.

It was a fantastic experience kayaking on the Danube with this company. The people, the gear, the location, the guides and the overall experience were amazing. I had so much fun. I highly recommend this company.

really fun and the guide made sure we felt comfortable the whole time, we were complete beginners and still had a great time!

Wow! What a fantastic experience and I would 100% recommend this as a must do activity when visting Bratislava.

From before our activity even started the kayaking guide couldn't have been moe helpful and his English was fantastic. About 20minutes before our start time we recieved a call (which we missed) and then a text checking we were ok finding the place. I replied that we were on our way and a few minutes later our guide appeared next to us and let us hop in the back of his vehicle to get there.

Once we were there and or things were away our guide explained clearly how to kayak (we were total first timers!) and ran through the safety instructions. We had time to sit in the kayaks and practise before heading off to the water. Both of use were a bit nervous about the masive canal boats sharing the river with us, but this was not an issue at all - they couldn't come near us as the water was too shallow.

We walked down to the waters edge, got into the kayaks and off we went for a short practise circle. Our guie followed closely giving us really helpful pointers and lots of encouragement.

After our practise we headed off down the river to a little part off the side. Our guide stayed with us and even explained all of the local sights as we travelled. He took lots and lots of photos for us and we receved these via email the same evening.

I am so glad we chose this trip! I would definately do it again if we were to come back! and to top it off...we didn't fall in!! :)

The whole tour wasn’t like we expected it to be! I thought we were going to see Some nice sights of Bratislava, but we only saw a couple of bridges and went back to shore. The kayakking it self was nice to do, but the tour guide had a bad mood or something.
