Great times on the Grand River! We'd never been canoeing there before and just happened to randomly drive past Canoeing the Grand. Very Covid 19 friendly and they have great cleanliness standards. The staff is so friendly and eager to make your trip a great one! The Grand can be a bit shallow at points but it's truly beautiful - especially this time of year with the leaves changing. We'll be back soon!
Today was the second time I have gone on a kayak trip. This is the most fun I have had in a long time. I feel like it is also cheaper then therapy and the gym combined!! It is a great activity for de-stressing and just enjoying the scenery. The staff was all so friendly and full of tips. I can't wait to do the Kaufman Flats trip next:)
Absolutely loved this experience. They catered to us when they saw we booked the wrong package and the customer service was superb. Definitely recommend this, if you're thinking about it definitely take the plunge. I've lived in Kitchener for years and always saw the canoes but never booked. I'm so glad I did. You get a great appreciation for the nature side of kw I had no idea we had half the animals we saw that day.
We rode The Grand with our kids (Ages 10, 8 & 6) on a sunny Sunday afternoon. It was an easy paddle. Fantastic local experience for the whole family! Bring snacks, water, and sunblock. Great afternoon activity! Staff were fantastic and will give you a "paddling 101 lesson" if you don't know what you're doing. You can bring your own life jackets or borrow theirs (included in canoe rental fee).
Went for the 4 hour trip, but it took us 6 hours. It was a blast, but don't underestimate how long the trip could be and bring water, unlike i did.
