 Meet outside the student union entrance  16:45

The Quayside at night provides a spectacular urban light show. Artistically illuminated buildings, the changing colours of the Millennium Bridge and the glowing neon signs of the bars and restaurants on the quays, create an unmistakeable and vibrant light scape. Experience all of this from the water, on one of our illuminated sit-on kayaks.

Glow Tours offer perhaps the most exciting and unique way to see Newcastle and Gateshead from it’s iconic river. Our experienced and knowledgeable kayak guides are on hand throughout to keep you safe and show you all the best bits.

We don't wear wetsuits on this trip. Please wear lightweight outdoor/fitness clothing with warm layers appropriate for the day's temperature. We supply a waterproof cag and trousers to wear on top. You will be asked to wear a helmet so a think bandana or Buff worn underneath can help keep your head warm. You should expect to get wet feet and a wet bottom! Bring a towel and change of clothes for afterwards.
