We were fortunate enough to be able to join Venice Kayak on a fantastic journey. We paddled kayaks from Lido Island to the island of Murano where we parked our them and walked through town, taking in as much as we could of the culture and the heritage of glass blowing for which the island is famous. It was amazing! We got back together several hours later and paddled to another island and a great little restaurant where we shared stories and an excellent meal with the group. After dark we paddled back across and traveled through Venice's waterways including the Grand Canal. WOW! Not only was it utterly spectacular, but the land-bound tourists hailed us as heros as we paddled past for undertaking such an adventure. It was the greatest feeling to be so "in touch" with the famed canal system, and then to be revered by the foot traffic made it even more memorable. Venice Kayak has opened up an ecological, non touristy feeling method of experiencing Venice as no one ever has before. I even coined a new phrase in memory of the adventure. When in Rome, do as the romans. When in Venice, do as the Danish! With gratitude for the incredible opportunity, and hope for your future success in this endeavor, Eric and Deb In September of 2008, my wife and I stumbled into a wonderful opportunity we could not have imagined.

Combining two of the greatest things imaginable: kayaking and Venice! Do you run year-round or only through the spring-fall? I hope to come to Italy from the end of April to middle of May 2009... Grazie y ci vediamo. You’re brilliant! Combining two of the greatest things imaginable: kayaking and Venice! Do you run year-round or only through the spring-fall?
