Exploring Rhode Island, especially when we’re hiking, usually means discovering places we’ve never seen before or running across unexpected hidden gems. Kayaking in Rhode Island, on the other hand, often allows us to view the landscape from a whole new viewpoint. That’s just what you’ll enjoy when you kayak along the Providence River.

A stroll along the Providence River Walk is always bucket list-worthy. However, when you want to admire the river walk and the skyline from a different perspective, slip into a kayak.

You can choose between a guided tour or simply rent a kayak. If you want a unique view of the city with a fascinating narrative, opt for the guided tour.

The guided tour really is a must do at least once. Chances are, once you've kayaked along the Providence River, you'll do so again - and again.
Tours last 90 minutes and are a great introduction to the city, if you're not from the Providence area. Reservations are strongly encouraged.

However, if you prefer the freedom to explore as you want, rent a kayak with Providence Kayak.
