Great day at Petri Island - 4 stars

Petrie Island - Took 4 friends out at Petri Island and had a great time. Very friendly and helpful staff. Booking asked for everyone’s height and weight, but all paddles seem the same. Too short for some people.  

Thank you for your comments.  We'll obtain extra paddles of different sizes.

Mooney's Bay - I have used Riverview kayaks twice this summer and highly recommend. Equipment always clean and almost new, easy communication with operator, great price for a personalized service. They offer multiple locations on their schedule, and take special requests. Easiest way to kayak if you don’t own your own. Try them!!

Kayak + wilderness in the city = magic - 5 stars

Sachiko 2021-08-20

Eccolands Park - We have rented kayaks in Ottawa before but the distinct advantage of Riverview Mobile is its variety of launch sites. We left from Eccolands Park and travelled about 3 km south on the Rideau River before branching off east on a winding and secluded creek. A wonderful discovery! It was hard to believe we were still in the city. The 3-hour rental enabled an unhurried and thoroughly enjoyable excursion. Excellent value for the money, and the owner-operator was very personable. A 5-star experience.

Amazing service ! - 5 stars

Eccolands Park - Owner is  so flexible and accessible ! Brings the kayak right to the launch site. You can meet at regular stops or you can arrange your own time and location. This is a great concept if you want to try kayaking or if you don't want to deal with the hassles of owning your own kayak, like storing and transporting it.

Amazing service ! - 5 stars

So much fun and way easier than we thought!! - 5 stars

Mihai 2021-08-08

Mooney's Bay - We tried kayaking for the first time at Mooney's Bay. The location is great! Wide enough to seem like a lake, then getting narrower up the river. Waters are calm, almost no currents, occasionally disturbed by a passing motorboat, to kids' great delight! Speaking of whom (they are 10 and 15), from the moment they sat in their kayaks, they were like ducks in water - totally independent and maintenance free! We hit the water at 8:30 am and spent three hours of unforgettable fun! Thank you and looking forward to our next adventure (probably at Britannia Beach)!!!

Brantwood Park - We actually started at 4pm - thank you for accommodating the time change. 
The entire two hours on the Rideau River were wonderful: the water was calm; for 15 minutes we sat and watched a Great Blue Heron preen itself; later we saw another one fishing; we were surrounded by trees, ducks, geese, summer sounds, and it was delightful sharing the day and sun and water with others on stand-up paddleboards, kayaks and canoes.
A relaxing experience, which I've already recommended to others.

The Kayak Rental Service was A++!!! - 5 stars

Stéphanie & Richard 2021-07-23

Petrie Island - Our experience with Riverview Kayak Rental was a very pleasant one indeed. The reservation was easy to make and the owner was very accommodating and helpful in assisting us determine which kayak would be the best fit for us. We rented the kayaks in an effort to kind of “try before you buy” and the staff we dealt with went so far as to contact us post-reservation to give us a lead on where we could purchase the kayak we had in mind and to share their experience and expertise AND  gave us a discount card to use towards our next rental. We would definitely recommend this company to anyone looking to give kayaking a try and will definitely be renting from them again in the future!! Service was A++!!!
