What travellers are saying
- fredahyattReading, UK17 contributionsOn Sunday I joined Terry's Walkabout on a special tour of Prospect Park in Reading. It was part of the Jubilation day out. I have been using Prospect Park since I was a child - picnics and games of rounders as a child and walking and car boots as an adult and I thought I pretty much knew all about it but Terry had masses of anecdotes and stories that made me look at it in a new light. We were a mixed group on the walk,, both adults and children, and it worked well on all levels. The walk is at a pace that suited us all and there was plenty of time for questions.
Because of my delight in this walk, I have booked another for later this year that links into the Huntley and Palmer 200 anniversary. and I am sure I will discover things about the town that I never knew, despite living here all my life!Written 7 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - Rupert ELondon, UK13 contributionsOur family of 4 had a wonderful time for 3nights on Georgia. Thoroughly enjoyed staying and driving the boat and being out on the water, as well as having such a great base to do a few things along the Thames. Having the extra space in the wide-beam boat really helped make it relaxing and a nice place to spend the evenings after the cruising.Written 5 May 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Tea and crumpetsMarrakech, Morocco51 contributionsThis is worth every penny, the staff are brilliant engaging, approachable and great sense of humour.the boat is clean and well suited to meet all needs we went on a short 45 min cruise river taster...perfect for my young granddaughter's who absolutely loved the whole experience.
The views are lovely and it was very relaxing even the kids felt chilled out after this trip
We took a little picnic on board but there are drinks available at good prices on board .
My 3 rd time using and will definitely return againWritten 26 October 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - Simon RLondon, UK13 contributionsMy brother and I hired 2 single kayaks and equipment from these guys for a 3 day Kayak down the Thames to Teddington.
It was a huge challenge as was just over 60 miles. (18.5, 25 & 17 respectively for each day)
The Thames Canoe Hire guys really helped with firstly being very amenable to a date change, then opening early to allow a prompt start on day 1 and then coming to collect the Kayaks from Teddington when we finished. Obviously we had to pay a for this but that saved a lot of pain in trying to organise retrieval ourselves. The cost was very reasonable given the distance/effort involved; just no way we would have wanted to do this after such a physically demanding trip!
The trip was superb fun and beautiful - well worth the pain.
On our return to Teddington the collection was very smooth and simple. They even asked if they wanted to drop us off somewhere to get public transport but we didnt need this.Written 28 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - Scott ELightwater, UK138 contributionsGood 4x4 experience driving through 8 acres of reclaimed land. There is plenty to try and pit your driving skills against. This is a good fun off road experience and our instructor Andrew was very friendly and helpful.
The only downside was how long it took with 4 people driving in the car, you get three laps each swapping over after every lap. 5 adults with no working back windows on a sunny day was a little uncomfortable.
Defiantly one to try and would recommend anyone to give it a go once, would I go back probably no.Written 17 July 2016This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - EmmaSwindon, UK1 contributionVisited today - kids had fun, course is good but sadly the inflatables were filthy and covered in bird droppings that had clearly been there for some time. Many times whilst climbing back on the inflatables we nearly got a face full of excrement. I’m not traditionally a reviewer but I thought this really let the park down and would love to to see an improvement. Went to the adrenaline quarry and this was spit spot, so it can be done!Written 2 June 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Stephen J1 contributionAfter reading the positive reviews about Supera I booked a 1 to 1 with Julia to improve my confidence and technique. Julia is an excellent instructor who explains each step clearly and positively exudes enthusiasm for paddle boarding. She has made me feel much more confident on my board. Thank you Julia!Written 15 September 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Debbie EReading, UK6 contributionsChris and Elle are a welcoming and professional team. My family and friends have improved significantly since coming to them. Brilliant coaching and great service.

- Louise C1 contributionBeautiful scenery and very relaxing trip down the canal. Our skippers were excellent company too. Kids thoroughly enjoyed going through the lock.Written 13 August 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- chickennecambridge13 contributionsWe’ve done lots of trails and we always enjoy them. They are a great way to discover out-of-the-way places that you might not visit otherwise and there’s always a huge sense of achievement once you complete a trail.
We recently had an issue with one of the trails so I emailed their HQ and they replied within an hour so, perfectly resolving the issue and making me a very happy customer. I recommend them not only because the trails are great fun but because their customer service is outstanding.Written 28 August 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - Elise Macleod24 contributionsI purchased this as a gift for my husband. He loves craft beer. He really enjoyed trying the different beers and visit breweries he had never been to before. The guide was brilliant, she took the time to tell us about the difficult type of beer and loved the quiz on the bus to keep us entertained. We also got discounts to take away! The gift that keeps on giving.Written 15 February 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- SynthespianLondon, UK14 contributionsTook my son here for his first waterskiing lesson. Wow. What an amazing day. The most secluded lake and wonderfully calm location (we did go on a quiet day to be honest). The lake is perfect and calm. Our instructor was fantastic in helping him start on the bar, and then quickly got him up and able to get him on to the rope "with confidence" really quickly. So impressed both with the level of coaching, the entire ethos and manner of all of the staff, the serenity, good nature and ethos of the people and th eplace and it's just brilliant as a location as well for water skiing. We'll be going back, for sure.Written 11 April 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
