Schuylkill River Tours
Kayaking on the tidal Schuylkill is a serene and active way to enjoy Philadelphia. Head upriver towards the Fairmount Dam to enjoy spectacular views of the Art Museum, Fairmount Water Works and the city skyline. Head downriver towards Bartram’s Garden to immerse yourself in greenery and wildlife – tree cover increases significantly below the South Street Bridge, you may not believe that you’re still in the city!
