Back of Beyond Adventures

The staff were friendly and extremely kind.
The River Thames was unbelievably calm and beautiful. It was a fantastic kayaking experience including a stop by a pub along the river.

We recently organized a 1-hour Children’s Canoe Rafting Party with Back of Beyond UK, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. (Apologies if I misspell any names, especially Piers, who was particularly wonderful!) The activity was incredibly well thought out children first had the chance to build their own boats, which they absolutely loved, and then they got to take them out on the water and enjoy endless fun. It was such a unique and engaging combination of creativity and outdoor adventure.

Throughout the entire process, the team was extremely helpful and responsive, both via email beforehand and in person on the day. They made everything feel smooth and well-organized, which really helped us relax and enjoy the experience. Most importantly, all the children were genuinely happy and fully immersed in the activity. they left with huge smiles and unforgettable memories.

It’s worth noting that changing facilities and toilets are not directly on-site, so you need to plan a little in advance. However, the team gives clear guidance on how to manage this. Since we were there for a birthday party, we brought along a couple of pop-up changing tents and used the nearby green area to get the kids ready, which worked perfectly and allowed the fun to continue without interruption.

Overall, this is a brilliant, water-filled activity that we would highly recommend for children’s parties or group events. A truly memorable experience for everyone involved!

The equipment was all clean and in great condition. John was friendly, informative, and helpful. We had an absolutely wonderful time kayaking along the Thames between Richmond and Teddington.
