Aqueduct tour - Had a great day. Our group was only small (three kayaks) and we were blessed to be lead over the aqueduct by our lovely guide (jack whitall lookalike and definite sound like) with such humour and professionalism. Would definitely recommend and will be back soon to try other activities. Thanks guys!!

Aqueduct canoeing - Had a great time canoeing across the aqueduct. I'm not generally to good with heights but being sat in the canoe seemed to help. Great view and definitely worth doing. Well organised and experienced staff

Unique Canoeing Experience - Jen was friendly, communicative, and very attentive to our group. Truly enjoyed canoeing across the aqueduct. My only suggestion is to include a brief history of the aqueduct to the tour, perhaps during the car journey ride to the water?

An exciting canoe experience - Very enjoyable indeed. Instructor was clear with rules and regs and accompanied us well throughout the experience, an extremely pleasant young man. I felt safe all the time, as did my companion (we are both 72 years old).

lots of fun - Really enjoyable experience, I have never been canoeing before so was a bit worried but the guide went through everything very clearly. Its a beautiful place to canoe, lots of lovely sights. There a bit of traffic going across the arches so we did have to wait for a while but a part from that loved it and would definitely go again.
