A must!!! Amazing for a scenic adventure trip!! We did Paris to brant 13 kms took about 3 hours at a slower pace but a few go get em times. We had a lot of time to chit chat and it was great that the water is so shallow we were able to get out whenever we wanted and easily get back in our single kayaks. We stopped to see the fresh water, waterfall and the old gypsy mine!!! So many perfect picture opportunities! This route also had a couple spots that were small rapids, there was one area that was pretty decent size for a kayak and my bf thought he'd walk the kayak back to do it again but hat was difficult made it mostly but ended up going through it backwards the second time!! The man who prepared us before the river was friendly and funny! The bus ride didn't take too long but as on any school bus it was a bit bumpy and everyone worse their masks. We were able to stop at an area just 15 mins in called bean park in Paris to have out lunch picnic, there aren't really other spots to get out and sit comfortably other than this along the way until near the end if you can wait the 2.5 hours to eat, we could not, we brought subway sandwiches in a cooler bag with ice and drinks. The kayaks have a nice storage spot on the back if them so feel free to bring your towels, food, drinks, sunscreen because it is hot and sunny on the right day!! We will defently do this again!!

I had a lot of fun on this trip, it was an amazing experience and great way to explore another great part of Ontario. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and river itself is safe for someone who is novice or completely inexperienced. If you can get out there to see the leaves change you should. I did the Paris to Brant stretch kayaking at my own pace it was easygoing and you can rest whenever you really feel like it there are also lots of opportunities to stop and get on land.

The perfect Lesson! New to kayaking? Look no more. I would consider this to be the perfect introduction to real river kayaking. Sure, you could start with a joy ride on a lake to get the hang of it, but going on a river is a while different animal. Couple of reasons why this is best for beginners: 1. Take the 13km stretch from Paris to Brant. It's the easiest and the river current does most of the work. 2. The whole thing can be done in 2 hours. But add in a picnic lunch, couple of drinks and pitstops - you are set fot 4-5 hours. 3. The water is really shallow - averages at 3 feet or so. So, you don't have to be worried about falling off - although the life jacket does a pretty good job of saving you anyways. They take you on a bus ride to where the kayaks would start. And you end up where you parked. You can also choose between tandem kayaks, canoe and floats - but i would recommend to go for single kayaks. Overall Verdict: If you've dreamed of kayaking someday, look no further!

Had an amazing time on the river. From check in to check out the staff were exceptional and handled everything with all the proper COVID rules. The 3 hr trip was enjoyable and our group of 9 had no issues. Perfect for teens and having your own boat makes a difference. No arguments ! Would do it again and great value.
