Paddle Tours on the Non-Tidal River Thames

A tour is a great option if you prefer to be accompanied on the water by a local experienced guide. See the best spots, pick up some paddling hints & tips, and leave the organisation to us. All you need to do is turn up and paddle!

A typical tour runs for a couple of hours, but we can create a schedule that works for your availability and budget
