Jodie Pearson2022-11-01I organised a group tour with Andy and it was amazing! It was a beautiful paddle along the Thames and the team thoroughly enjoyed it! We would highly recommend :)
Allie Mount2022-09-26Such a delightful way to spend the day. The service was great, amazing that they allow dogs in the canoes. We paddled down the Thames, stopping in at pubs and enjoying just being out on the water. Would 100% recommend and would 100% do again.
Howard Burchett2022-09-21Great one to one experience with Andy on the river in the kayak. Learnt a lot about paddling and the river.
Kiyan Shabestary2022-09-21We were a group of 20 people looking for a social activity. Andrew was quite flexible and we could manage to book 24h in advance. The area is great for kayaking with couple of pubs that can be accessed directly by boat! Everyone had a great time and I will definitely come back next Summer!
Bridget Anderson2022-09-20We had a great day out - friendly helpful service, excellent equipment, convenient and accommodating. Highly recommended!
Lisa Stevenson2022-09-19Spent my Wednesday evenings this summer doing Andy’s beginner paddleboard classes. Also a couple of social paddles. Cannot rate him highly enough, calm instruction and all equipment provided. Would highly recommend the sport and using HCPS. Thank you for a fabulous summer!
Dawn Selway2022-09-16Brilliant experience from start to finish. Andy is a great instructor with a nice balance of friendliness as well as professionalism which instantly puts you at ease. I had my first "official" paddle board lesson and through his gentle encouragement I felt safe to push myself beyond what I thought was possible. I wouldn't hesitate to go back or recommend Hampton Court Paddle Sports.
Mike Watkins2022-09-12Fantastic lesson with Andrew very patient and excellent tips. Lovely location and set up! Highly recommended.
Louise Curran2022-09-11Had such an amazing experience with Hampton Court Paddle Sports. From start to finish the team were so helpful. We booked a private Paddle Boarding lesson with Andy who was really knowledgeable and patient with us and put our minds at rest straight away! Couldn’t recommend enough for a fantastic, fun & safe afternoon
