The kayak instructor, John was fantastic, very knowledgeable not only about kayaking but the local history and area. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the experience and company again.

The reviews speak for themselves:

“Lovely experience with amazing instructor - The experience is truly amazing! I recommend it to everyone. It is worth all the money. The instructor is a real professional, he showed us how to use legs and what part of body should we focus on when riding the board. During the session we tried multiple times to stand and ride the board. And he always told us what we did wrong and why we fell. Also during the ride he was shouting instructions so we wouldn’t forget what to focus on. For me it was mostly ‘bend the knees’. I recommend it to everyone who really wants to try this sport and is afraid to. With these guys it was very pleasant and quite simple to learn. They give you the time and help and they really focus on you. Thank you for an amazing experience.” - Reviewed on 2024-06-13
