Would have scored much better if they were more customer friendly. This was a fun thing to do in a beautiful place .... apart from the guy on the desk who did not give me a chance to tell him I am a skilled canoeist with BCU qualification. He did not try to sell the experience and was just obnoxious... More

Went canoeing with wyedean for the day with my parents. Had a great day and was well looked after by the staff. They were really helpful when getting us in and out of the water and told us exactly how to control the canoe properly. When we arrived back at wyedean from our 9 mile trip all of the staff... More

Had a great time today took our 7 and 4 year old on the River Wye in a Canoe! Only for an hour but it was great fun for all the family. Recommend it for £18 for the hour, could have had longer but the hour was enough for the little one.

We were told over the phone to be there at one pm , as printed in the leaflets and on the company's noticeboard, so we arrived at one but were rushed into signing papers and putting on lifejackets etc. I personally felt like we were made to think we were at fault and that we should have arrived half an...

We value our customers opinions and feedback. It is unfortunate that our customer had crossed wires regarding the arrival and departure time. A 1pm departure has arrival time of 12.30 at our center to ensure time to prepare and receive equipment etc prior to setting off for the start point. This is clearly stated verbally on booking and in writing... More

Having seen canoists travelling down the Wye, decided we must try it! Great! Helpful and enthusiastic staff. Great easy paddling down river. Saw Kingfishers, Peregrine falcons under Yat Rock and water life. Very relaxing and rewarding. Time to beach for a cup of coffee. A really good experience. Thoroughly recommend it.

Hired a 2-seater canoe for the day. We were taken 15miles up river by minicab and canoed back down river. We had from 10am until 4.30pm but only took 4hours. We took lots of breaks along the banks of the river and saw loads of wildlife including swans, geese, ducks, fish, kingfishers, mink, buzzards and peregrine falcons. We were provided... More

Hi, I joined my son and partner on my first kayaking adventure this year. The staff here know exactly what they are doing, they cared passionately about our enjoyment and so importantly about our safety too, they have enormous experience between them. They talked enthusiastically with me the novice in bite sized bits I could digest and they exchanged more... More
