Amazing experience
It was our first kayaking experience, my 6 year old and I had such fun, all thanks to Hayley, our splendid guide. We went to three caves and spotted the glow worms. Kayaking was great fun, even though it was my first time. On our return, we could see the sky dotted with stars like never before! Wrap up warm, you might get a tiny bit wet, spring/summer really is the best time to do it, as I imagine it would be too cold in winter. Hayley took the time to explain all about glow worms, it was a great learning experience as well. Big shout out to Hayley! You are amazing!

Thanks for this message we will pass on this great feedback to Hayley

Absolutely amazing!
This was an absolutely delightful experience for us especially when we were sceptical about this water ride as we don't know swimming and were a bit afraid of water too. This experience was made so special by our guide who was very kind and helpful in giving us directions. He made sure we felt comfortable and get to enjoy the most from this glow worm kayaking adventure. The view was amazing and we loved it!!! Will go back again!
