Paddling is a wonderful group activity that anyone can enjoy! Our group outings are customized just for your group: the location, boat types you choose, guiding and catering are up to you. Learn about our options.

Your group can enjoy any of our regular guided tours on your schedule! You can even combine food and paddling for an unforgettable experience.

What could be better than the combination of paddling and food? We are happy to arrange catering from any local restaurant, or bring your own food and enjoy our waterfront picnic areas!

Groups love the 5-mile, one-way trip between our two rental centers on the Charles River Basin: Allston/Brighton in Boston and Kendall Square in Cambridge.

Enjoy a ten-mile, one-way scenic trip down a wilder, less-developed section of the Charles. From our location in Newton's Nahanton Park.

Let Charles River Canoe & Kayak bring out the best in your team! Our trained facilitators will work with your group — new recruits, a branch office, long-time co-workers, etc. — and improve cohesion, cooperation, communication, synergy, leadership, and more.

Want to hold your outing at a location of your choice? We can deliver canoes, kayaks, and stand-up paddleboards anywhere!

Our two 25-foot Rabaska canoes are great fun for groups to paddle! These stable and fast canoes seat up to 10 paddlers, and are the perfect choice for birthday parties, team- building, or a friendly outing.

Let us create a customized birthday party for your child and friends!

Our Instructors/Guides will accompany your group and provide paddling instruction, organize games and races, and share stories about history and wildlife.

Your group can choose from our five unique rental locations, each offering a different paddling experience and environment. All our locations offer canoes and stable recreational kayaks, plus double kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, and more.
