Host & Everything Else
- I really enjoyed the canoe experience. It was a great laugh. The coordinator was friendly. The only point I would make is if a member of the canoe place went with us it would help because its not easy to get a canoe to go in the direction you want if you are a novice. However I would definitely go on boat activity again as I love them.
- I enjoyed the canoe event and would recommend it. Margaret our host was very welcoming and included us all. Thank you for organising this event.
- Everything about this event was spot on, yes please do book this again. fabulous way to spend a Sunday morning.
