“The instruction given in all aspects of the programme is excellent. We cannot fault the calibre of the instructors, their communication and people management skills, and their expertise in kayaking, rafting, water safety and the Challenge Ropes Course. The programme planning and risk management is totally professional.

The equipment, gear and facilities provided are all of a very high standard. Dealing with one company for all aspects of the programme - transport, accommodation, meals, equipment and instruction - is a huge advantage for busy teachers wanting an objective based outdoor education programme”.
