What are guided kayak trips?
Guided kayak trips are organised outings where you explore wild country on the water alongside a trained guide.
The guide tells you about the route, the natural world, the safety rules and the basics of handling a kayak.
They suit anyone who wants to find new places without having to put the whole thing together themselves.
They bring together adventure, learning and exploring, in a way anyone can join.
