Dart River Funyak Safari

Jet Boat Action - Funyak - Back-Road Tour

The Funyak Safari is the most intimate way to explore and experience every aspect of this amazing area.

Firstly, you will travel an exciting 11/4 hours up the Dart River by jet boat; then, you will disembark to begin your funyak journey in one of the unique inflatable 'Funyak' canoes. After full instructions, you will be free to paddle and drift (under the watchful eye of your professional guide) for a spectacular two hours downstream, taking in the awe-inspiring sights found amidst the Dart River's shimmering channels.

You will stop amongst the ancient beech forest to enjoy a wilderness buffet lunch and explore the hidden side streams, rock pools and dramatic chasms such as the beautiful Rockburn, before you continue downstream to Paradise, where you will be taken by 4WD coach to Glenorchy, stopping to view the stunning scenery that has inspired many films.
