KAYAK WITH WATERIDERS!

• BEST VALUE

  ---

  Don't overpay for the experience. With our lower hourly rates and central location, you will not get a better value anywhere on the river. Maximize your time paddling in the downtown area while minimizing your cost.

• EASY PARKING

  ---

  Just a minute's walk from the river, our validated parking garage is convenient and offers the best deal in the area - $4 + 50 cents per hour! We are also very easy to reach by bike, train (Metra or L), bus, rideshare, or foot.

• PRIME LOCATION

  ---

  Begin your journey at the river’s hub. Our launch at the East Bank Club starts you minutes from downtown via scenic Wolf Point, where the three branches of the river meet and the city’s magnificent views blossom.

• FREE LESSONS

  ---

  Do you feel like you may need some coaching? We'll jump on the water with you if you are feeling nervous, or if you look like you need some assistance. While everyone receives an on-land lesson, we'll give additional on-water training to those who may struggle at first.

• LOCAL PIONEERS

  ---

  Locally owned and operated, we were the first company to host kayak tours on the Chicago River in the downtown area. Since 1997, we have hosted over 100,000 urban adventurers through this wonderful waterway!

• HIGH QUALITY

  ---

  For over 20 years, we have taken great pride in our tours. Carefully curated scripts are informative and entertaining, while our personable, experienced guides have both the knowledge and dedication to make sure you have a memorable, safe journey with us.
