What an amazing experience and fantastic guide Dinesh. I was a little apprehensive as I was a solo traveller, but Dinesh picked me up from my hotel on time with good what’s app communication the day before and on the day to check I was up on time. He was such an interesting chap, we chatted all the way there in our short 20 min car ride to the river. There we met 4 other guests who had booked on and after a short instruction on how to kayak and safety we set off. It’s fair to say that you are kayaking for approx 2.5 hrs, but lots of opportunity to take it easy, glide, take photos as he shows us some points of interest and as a mixed ability group he catered for all. Kayaking through sections of the narrow mangroves was truly other worldy and you got such a sense of it all, so glad I didn’t opt to take a river cruise. We stopped for a break half way, with water, cheese, crackers and water melon. All round great trip and well worth the early start!
