Description

You've never paddled before, right? If you're a first-time kayaker, this is the perfect option for you. We'll start from the basics, get a one-on-one lesson to get the necessary skills and confidence, then go on water. We are Nicoló and Aleksandra, a young couple living in Venice. Members of a prominent rowing club, we practice water sports every day. We invite you to experience Venice by water with us. Let us show you Venice from another perspective — cultural, sports-oriented and local. Learn to kayak in the authentic area of Venice - Castello, beautiful district famous for the Medieval Arsenal. We will take you to this unique Medieval site and immerse you in the history. Visit the historically important Venetian rowing club, as it is the best place to immerse yourself in Venice's history, traditions, and contemporary life. By participating in our activities, you contribute to preserving this unique and historically significant site. Part of your fee goes to support the restoration and maintenance of the club. What is the program? Club visit; Lesson in the club; Training on the water. Please be aware, kayaking is a sport activity. Please check out our requirements. We will reach out to you to determine your level of experience. In some cases, the guide may transfer your booking to another group that has the same skill level as yours.
