White Water Rafting for Two
Overview
Forget that trip to the cinema or the meal you were going to go out for - head out for some white water rafting instead! As it is one of the most challenging water based activities available in the UK, you should put yourselves to the test and give this thrill ride a go. The two of you will join several other adventure seekers and a qualified guide to thunder your way down one of the UK’s exciting white water runs. Either manmade or natural, there’s no doubt you’ll experience the incredible adrenaline rush of speed, cold water and impending doom! Grip on tight and don’t drop your paddles!

What happens on the day?
Before the two of you can get started you’ll need to kit up in the safety gear and pay attention the all important briefing. After this you’ll follow directions from a professional guide and get thrown straight into the crazy action of your chosen course. Depending on the location, you can confront challenges such as the “Cheeseblock”, the “Looping Pool”, the “Muncher” or the “Washing Machine”. Stay agile, as you’ll be bouncing about in your water soaked rafts, this is an encounter you won't forget in a hurry. Be prepared to face steep drops, tight turns and masses of water! At least you’re not going it alone!

Wonderful Happy Day! full of laugh and joy!
We are just back from a great fun time doing Whitewater rafting in Wales. We had a booking for two in December the 18th. Start with, we were worried that two is not enough and we will struggle, but we had a great instructor, Rob - funny and very professional. Rob convinced us that two and himself will be fine. We both had a blast! We had such a great time. It was NOT COLD at all! we had two wet-suits each. All the staff were lovely. Well organised. We will be back to try canyoning next time.

White water rafting Scotland
I’m so glad we decided to not do this at Nottingham but instead chose on the river in Scotland! It was perfect scenery and such a great experience for me and the kids.

Cracking way to spend a sunny afternoon
Approx 3 hours required for this activity. Staff very friendly and helpful. Our "Captain", Josh, was very positive and did everything he could to make the group involved and take advantage of his skill in the raft. Thanks great afternoon

Awesome, fun, wanna go again!
A gift from my Husband for my birthday, what a great gift it was too. The staff are fun, the rafting is great, it’s a long trip down the river through a range of rapids. My husband had been before but enjoyed the fact that it was one long run on the river rather than several shorter runs. The centre is easy to find, clean & there’s a little cafe should you need some refreshments. Great afternoon, good fun, we wanna go again! You can buy photos at the end to which are great value for money.

Fantastic
We both thoroughly enjoyed it. I was so nervous at first but once we got into it wanted even more! We had a good 2 hours on the course and it was so much fun. It is physically challenging!

Escape from reality...such good fun
Well organised, great team of rafting pros that made the day safe, scary at times but always felt in safe hands they work so hard and make it look like they are messing about but always in your mind your safety is paramount to them. Great day, great experience will go back again with bigger group.

Great experience
My girlfriend baught me this experience for my birthday due to my love for water sports and adventure. What an experience it was, we chose to use the whitewater active in wales as it was the more natural experience rather than man made and we were really chuffed wih that decision. As well as trying to take in all the sport itself you have beautiful views around the lake including old steam train routes, bridges and old pubs. Overall i would give this experience a 10 out of 10.

Fab 50th Birthday Treat
My husband and me went on a white water rafting experience in Llangollan and it was fabulous. Everything was perfect, the team who took us out , the safety wear we were supplied with, the photographs on offer at a very reasonable price, the weather and finally the pretty little town. A perfect adventure and we would definitely revisit and do it all over again! Thank you :-)

Great new experience!
As a Londoner and having never really ventured as far as the wilderness of the welsh valleys, it was truly a wonderful experience. Next to try will be kayaking or canyoning! I look forward to my next visit!

The Greatest Day this year!!
My wife organised this Whitewater Rafting experience as part of my 40th birthday celebration. The staff at Llangollen were very polite, friendly and competent and ensured we all had a wonderful experience. Our instructor, Zana, was very funny and his instructions were clear and we always felt we were in control but also managed to push ourselves at times. It was one the most exhilarating activities I’ve ever done in my life and I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

Fun but tame
We went to the Llangollen one which was fun but really tame. Maybe it's because it hadn't rained for ages..
