We booked a day canoe trip from Hoarwithy to Ross on Wye and found everything to be fantastic. I spoke to Mark before our trip on the phone as I had a few questions regarding the booking and he was very friendly and helpful and actually wanted to help you unlike a lot of canoe hire companies so I have...

The river was running high and fast, but with the open Canadian Canoes lashed together in rafts, it was an easy and safe adventure. We were able to stop and have a picnic on the banks of the river.

We spent 7 hours canoeing on the Wye, and for £18 per person you cant beat the value! The 8 of us had a really good time, none stop laughs. Will definitely go again.

We did a three day trip. Hoarwithy to Redbrook with the family 20,17 and 14 and we can recommend it. We liked the Symonds Yat rapids. We disliked the lunch stop on the first day,very difficult to access. We loved the brilliant blue damsel flies on the sunny day and think we heard and saw the peregrine falcons. The best... More

Fantastic day spent meandering down the Wye taking in fantastic sights and enjoying wonderful nature. Mark and his team could not be more helpful, first class briefing and attention to detail made us novices feel super confident. Return to Ross via mini-bus was very efficient but we had time for a welcome drink when we completed our days paddling! Would... More
