Explore Llangollen’s river gorge with wetsuits, waterfalls, jumps, and friendly guides in a lively two-hour Welsh outdoor adventure.
“We met our brilliant guide at a near by car park and followed him to the gorge. We were given wet suits and life jackets and made our way down into the water. Our guide was friendly and chatty and knowledgeable about other trips and outdoor adventures. We walked through the gorge, some bits were shallow, some deep, some slippy, but we felt safe with our guide. I am not normally a huge outdoorsy person and the trip did push my boundaries, but I overcame the fear and it was all very very fun. I would definitely recommend the trip and the Whitewater company.”

Explore Bath’s top landmarks with a low-cost audio walking tour covering Roman baths, Georgian architecture, Jane Austen, and more.
“Audio was in heel veel talen beschikbaar en zeer duidelijk. Beter zou zijn om vooraleer te starten , reeds een 10 tal locaties op de kaart van bath te zetten waar men kan starten. Wij bezochten vooraf de Romeinse baden en gingen dan naar het opgegeven startpunt van de tour , ongeveer 2 km naar het noorden van de stad. Daarna de hele weg terug als onderdeel van de wandeling. Indien we dit geweten hadden, zouden we de audiowandeling gestart hebben aan de Romeinse Baden .”
