Step by Step
The Yogyakarta kayaking tour is one of those activities that combine sport, nature and tranquillity in one experience. You will navigate a calm river, typically cream or brown in colour depending on the season, enjoying the sounds of the jungle and the sights of lush vegetation, small waterfalls and wildlife. This adventure is designed especially for adult beginners, although accompanied children can also participate.
The meeting point is the Kayakasia Garage in the Bantul district. There you will receive a brief instruction on safety and basic kayak handling, and then you will start the trip downstream. During the trip you will always be accompanied by certified guides, who will assist you and give you information about the environment.
Once the paddling is finished, a support vehicle will pick up the participants and take them back to the starting point. There, you can change your clothes, freshen up and enjoy a hot drink and a small snack to end the activity with a good taste in your mouth.
This is an ideal activity for couples, friends or family, especially during the rainy season, when the landscape is at its best. We recommend booking at least one day in advance and confirming attendance by message.
