What to expect
You'll meet at Mandoon Estate and be fitted with kayak, paddle, and safety gear before pushing off from the river bank. The pace is steady and relaxed—think drifting rather than racing. Your guide will pull the group together a few times to point out significant spots and chat about the Swan Valley's past. The water is calm here, making it easy to take in the surroundings without strain. After paddling back to the estate, you can head straight to the Cellar Door or Brewery to sample wines and beers, or add a food package if you're keen for something more substantial.
