Kayaking and canoeing — we invite you to a cool trip on the water!

Just imagine — The crisp early morning air.

The Griboedov Canal, its granite embankments, the serenity of the city as it awakens. The blades of the paddles dip smoothly into the water and the bow of the kayak cuts through the mirror-like surface. The Golden Griffins and the pillars of the Kazan Cathedral slowly come into view from behind the corner, the bright blue sky towers above your head...

We are recommended PiterKayak:

Highly recommended, the guides are awesome and the equipment was first class. It really is a fun way to see the city, especially enjoyed leaving canal and getting on the Neva River. I saw the other reviews and we got excellent instruction and had none of the issues others reported.

Открывали 2019 сезон - 27.04.2019, было супер! Оборудование у #piterkayak хорошее, все комплектное, это очень приятно! Наш гид и инструктор Георгий Толкачев был очень внимателен к проблемам новичков(часть группы впервые вообще была на воде!) и так хорошо провел инструктаж. что на воде у нас проблем просто не возникло. На воде была попытка поставить рекорд(смотри фото) и получилось посмотреть на весь "цвет города" с точки зрения проката водных плавсредста - для себя отметил, что у нас пожалуй лучшая модель каяков:) Обязательно еще пойдем с #piterkayak !!!

Отлично провели время с друзьями! Позитивные и общительные инструктора. Мы все первый раз катались на каяках, все остались довольные, даже не смотря на усталость и частично промокшую одежду) Маршрут тоже порадовал, тут нужно и проплыть под мостами, подплыть к Авроре, покачаться на вонах, мимопроходящих катеров! Спасибо больше, ПитерКаяу за проведенное время :)

Great programme with teenagers
We did two kayaking tours with a 14 year old teenager during our stay at St Petersburg. The city tour during the morning was really nice and not a difficult one even for those who has never been kayaking before. The Aurora tour was a challenge, a great one, if You are looking for excitement, You must try this one! We felt absolutely safe during both tours. We had some difficulty in getting the pictures taken during the tours, but at last we maneged ti get them.
