Our river trip is the only way to actually paddle under the famous O’Connell and Ha’penny bridges! City Kayaking is a fantastic way to see Dublin’s most famous landmark sites from a unique angle!
The trips are led by our experienced local guides and our kayaks are very stable "sit on top", ideal for beginners. The experience takes about 2 hours of which at least 90 minutes are on the water.
All our kayaks are doubles and triples. We think it's much more fun with a minimum of two people in each kayak but if you really want to fly solo we can put you in a small double kayak. All prices listed are per person. We run our guided river trips from our pontoon by the Liffey Boardwalk, between the Ha'Penny and the O'Connell bridge, in the very center of the beating heart of the capital.
If you have a gift voucher, please email info@citykayaking.com with your preferred time and date and we will get you booked in!
