We will start off with an introduction to kayaking, briefly teach the basic strokes, and then launch our double kayaks for a guided paddle on the Charles River. While exploring, your guide will discuss the river's place in Boston and Cambridge history. Upon return to the dock, we will sit down for a barbecue picnic catered by Redbones of Somerville.
The tour is offered from two locations: our Boston location on Soldier's Field Road in Allston/Brighton, and our Cambridge location in Kendall Square.
From our Boston location you'll experience a less-urban setting, with parkland and Harvard University along the banks. From our Cambridge location you'll enjoy the best skyline view in Boston and explore the lagoons of the Esplanade.
If you enjoy the combination of paddling and great food, you can also try our Barking Crab Tour, a six-hour adventure from Kendall Square into Boston Harbor for a wonderful seafood lunch.
