Our Riverwalk location is a great option for experienced paddlers looking to go it alone.
About Urban Kayaks
We are brothers, friends, and passionate Chicagoans. We want to show you the city that raised us from an incredible angle, kayaking in the Chicago River right through the center of downtown. We love Chicago and promise when you join us, you will too.

Meet our team
Urban Kayaks in Chicago was founded by two brothers and a life long friend to share a unique way to experience the city.
Their outdoors love inspired them to start a business that brings people to the water by renting a kayak or booking a guided tour from two departure locations: Riverwalk and Lakefront.
They now have a team of other adventurous souls with whom you can meet while paddling your way through the city. Learning how to kayak lessons are also available!
Come experience Chicago from a kayak in an unforgettable fun way!
