Had a great time doing the half day canoe trip on the canal! It was a beautiful, calm paddle. Mick was really lovely and helpful. It was also super kind of him to pick us up and drop us off in Brecon because we didn’t have a way of getting to and from the adventure centre. Would definitely recommend!

We had a guy name Ali who was guiding us through the gorge walking tour. Not being able to swim, Ali was so helpful and understanding to my non swimming needs, he was very entertaining and very good around the kids. Would recommend to anyone.

A most unforgettable experience! We had Jake for the day look after us and our group of friends. Our instructor was incredibly knowledgeable, we felt so looked after and safe with him! Lots of historical and nature facts and knowledge, as well as incredibly fun challenges! A truly unforgettable experience and a memory that I will cherish. Thank you so much Jake and the rest of the staff at Gorge Adventure for making this day possible for us!
