My husband booked as a birthday treat for myself. Our kids came 10 and 14yrs. Was such a great time. The instructor was excellent, knowledgeable, great fun, we were quite a big group (others we didn't know) but he made each and every one of us feel important and part of the whole thing. We've been on tours like this before where the instructors are more like teachers, on this occasion we felt in great safe hands but he was very much part of the group. Could not fault him. Equipment was second to none. Booking easy Very professional from start to finish. We will be back... Highly recommend.

Tom our guide was very good. He did a very good job of navigating around obstacles that appeared on the canal, such as on coming boats and passing boats. he was also very enjoyable to talk to. Great views from the aqueduct.

Fantastic experience with family and friends. Robson our instructor was great - very friendly and knowledgeable. Our daughter is a wheelchair user and was able to fully participate with some creative thinking. The weather was fine & dry and the views fabulous. Would recommend to anyone

Suzie was lovely, very patient and explained what we needed to do. We had a few fears but she dealt with these and the canoeing was amazing. What a view, will definitely recommend…

We had the delightful company of tom, in September, abs fantastic guy and what a good laugh we had, cannot recommend this enough. I went with my brother who doesnt know his left hand from his right, and crashed us into the bushes about half a dozen times, which all in made the trip even better. I leisurely took to the front and other than crashing into the bushes didn't have a care in the world. Tom's fab he deserves tips :) and no im not related. Would def do again - also its a good workout! book in advance as it gets busy.

We went on a guided tour over the aquaduct. Our guide was Richard and he was just such a lovely guy! Helpful and chatty. There was just us and him. It was such a chilled couple of hours with lovely scenery. Tnr are also so responsive on emails which is amazing! Would definitely book with them again with no hesitation
