Team trips
Team outings, lessons and experiences
There are a lot of good reasons to get your team on the water! An activity on, in or near water environments can lead to relaxation, improved social interactions, better brain health, enhanced physical activity, and relief from stress, according to emerging research.
Stepping away from the office and having fun in activities with your colleagues can help reduce your stress levels and help you become more focused for the rest of the working week.
At Hampton Court Paddle Sports, we create custom outings and tours that fit your team and budget. Mix & match equipment with kayaks, paddleboards and canoes. Choose from lessons, tours, river cleans, games and races, or the ever-popular paddle to the pub!
Two great locations to choose from! Our Hampton Court Bridge site is two minutes walk from the train station, five minutes walk from Hampton Court Palace, directly opposite the very cool Mitre Hotel, and close to a wide choice of cafes, bars and restaurants.
Or join us at ‘Paddle HQ‘ in West Molesey, just a mile upstream from the bridge, where we have a private pontoon, free lockers and WC with small change area, plenty of space for bicycles plus some off-road parking. From here we typically paddle upstream towards beautiful Sunbury on Thames, before a cruisy, downstream return.
Both locations are on lovely parts of the non-tidal River Thames, with lots to see, including amazing wildlife, stunning riverside properties, islands, bridges and parks.

EXCELLENT Based on 470 reviews Posted on Aye Chan May I had such a great experience at the kayaking lesson yesterday! The instructor was friendly, patient, and made everything easy to understand, even for beginners. The session was well organised, fun, and really enjoyable from start to finish. I felt safe and supported throughout, and it was a fantastic way to build confidence on the water. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to try kayaking or improve their skills!Posted on Tracy Stephenson I booked a 2 hour kayak trip from Hampton Court for my friends birthday . Andy was my contact and really helpful re making the right decision re timings etc. On the day Andy had to move our location but gave us a more comfy kayak and an extra hour for the inconvenience which was great. We were given a briefing and assisted in getting ready then headed off on the Thames. We had such a laugh and even moored up to have a drink . would recommend.Posted on Naima Siddiqi Had a 1:1 lesson with Andy today and it was brilliant, could not fault - very kind, knowledgeable instruction which had me standing much earlier than I expected.
