Matka Canyon Boat Cruise - Matka

Updated: Jun 28


Cruising deep in the Matka Canyon on a luxury pontoon cruise is a must-do experience.


We opted for the morning around 10 a.m., which was the perfect time to enjoy the canyon before the tourists arrived.


You cruised the canyon on your own, and it was very relaxing to soak up the magical views and have the lake to yourself.


Matka Canyon Boat Tours is located next to the Canyon Matka Hotel & Restaurant, and the hotel can arrange it if you are staying with them.


The return trip takes only one hour, and the cruise on a luxury pontoon is affordable at 500 denar —€8 each (usually 750).


You also visit a cave called Vrelo Cave, it is only a two-minute walk from the water's edge up some stairs, you spend 20 minutes touring the cave before returning to the boat.


The cave is well lit up for safety and the stairs were easy and suitable for most ages to explore, it is also free to enter.


The boat captain is well-versed in five languages (including English) and has a warm and friendly nature; you will enjoy the trip chatting away.


Another fun activity is kayaking through the canyon, ideally during the morning, to avoid the tourists. It is a popular activity and place to visit.


I highly recommend cruising with Almata Prima Kayak Rental and Boat Tours while visiting Matka Canyon to experience the pristine waters and Grand Canyon views.
