Canoe Hire on the Sundays River (2 hours) - No Guide

Sundays River, Colchester, next to the Addo Park

Activity Description

Two hours, a canoe and the Sundays River to yourselves.

This short unguided canoe hire is the easy way to get out on the water at Colchester, near Addo in the Eastern Cape. Paddle at your own pace along the flat Sundays River, watching for some of the roughly 210 bird species recorded here, mullet jumping beside the canoe, and kudu, bushbuck, Cape otter or vervet monkeys in the bush across the river. Our canoes seat two people each.

Price: R249 per person for 2 hours.
Hours: open 7am to 7pm. Choose 2 hours, 4 hours or a full day (8 hours).
Meeting point: 1 Jetty Street, Colchester, just below the southern gate of Addo Elephant National Park.

Who it suits: first-time paddlers, families, couples and anyone wanting a relaxed taste of the river in a short window.

Customer Reviews

We arrived 45 minutes early but was only collected 30 minutes after our allocated time began. Staff is friendly but service was poor. Although I am extremely grateful they were able to help us out with a driver from Colchester to Gqeberha. If anyone is seeing this, please do not rely on Uber to go to Sunday's River. Instead, hire a driver. You will be stranded otherwise. - Danielle


Enjoyed the experience a lot, everyone we interacted with were friendly. Had a great time and good food at the restaurant after our canoe session. - Chante-Leigh


Great experience and service! Thanks for going out of your way with accommodating our request! - Guido


We absolutely enjoyed every moment of it... The scenery was amazing. Would love to come back again for this fun activity? - Refiloe


It was nice except when boats are passing as it creates waves. - Hervé
