Wonderful, Wet, Wild ,White Water - we had a great day with you guys, Ollie our raft guide was amazing, he struck the perfect balance between keeping everyone safe and making sure we had a laugh along the way. His instructions were clear, professional and reassuring, which gave us complete confidence on the water. At the same time, his sense of humour and enthusiasm made the whole experience even more enjoyable, we are still buzzing a day on

Amazing White Water rafting experience - What an amazing experience! We took a number of cadets to Wales as part of an annual trip, and this experience was one of the activities we had booked. The booking process, and communication with the team was spot on from the start. Upon arrival on the day, the team were smooth in their preparation and briefing, explaining to the cadets the process and safety. Once safety briefing was complete, the cadets and leaders were then separated into 5 boats (5 or 6 persons per boat, plus instructor), before being transported to the start point. Each boat then started what was, unbeknownst to us at the time, 3 runs down the river. The runs started off calmly and then built up as we progressed back towards the base. Clearly the instructors were having as much fun as the cadets as at 2 points on the run, the boat was directed into the flow of a white water wave, whereupon the boat was almost completely submerged by the water. On each run, positions within the boat were swapped to allow all to experience the front of the boat where you got the wettest! Massive thanks goes out to the team and instructors for providing a challenging but ultimately fun experience withing the 2 hour window of the experience, and for the near 500 photos taken and sent via link. I would thoroughly recommend giving it a go. All cadets and leaders loved it (possibly bar one looking at her facial expressions in the photos provided, and all would gladly return).

Amazing rapids experience - We booked the 1 hour rapid experience for my wife’s 50th birthday. The whole experience was amazing from the moment we arrived. The staff were great. Really knowledgable and confident and made 3 nervous people feel at ease. Our guide Matt was brilliant. Good fun and totally relaxed the whole way through. We loved every minute and can’t wait to go again.

Unforgettable Rafting Experience with Professional and Helpful Guide - Absolutely 10/10 experience, highly recommend! Super fun and exciting from start to finish. The guides were professional, friendly, helpful..They gave clear instructions and made sure everyone felt comfortable, even if it was your first time. You can tell they genuinely love what they do. The rapids were the perfect mix of adrenaline and fun~ exciting enough to get your heart racing, but still safe and manageable. There were also calmer moments where you could take in the beautiful scenery. We bought all 80 photos taking by professional photographer which is an extra special bonus for the day! Would 100% do it again!

A must do if visiting this part of Wales - This is an excellent white water rafting experience, although a short stretch of river there are plenty of rapids and you get to go multiple times. The guides and staff are really friendly and make it a great family experience.

Excellent Fun! - My partner and I had an excellent time on the ultimate rafting experience and would definitely go again! The only things we noted were that the changing rooms / toilets felt a little tired and grubby and we wanted to purchase just 1 or 2 photos of the experience but you have to buy a full album which consisted of about 70+ photos for £35. You couldn't purchase individually which was disappointing.
