Wales Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

My wife and I booked the two-hour kayaking adventure with Tenby Adventure and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.The kayaks are fairly basic sit-on-top types, but they are perfectly suited to the trip. The route takes you around the caves and coastline near Tenby before heading a good distance along the coast to a lovely beach that is only accessible from the sea. After some time there, it was a steady paddle back towards Tenby.The guide was friendly, competent and knowledgeable about the area. He took the time to explain the basics to those who were new to kayaking, while recognising that my wife and I already had plenty of experience. Having someone experienced on the water who knew the coastline also gave us confidence that, should anything have gone wrong, we were in capable hands, with the appropriate safety equipment and communications available.The candid photographs taken along the way were another nice touch, both on the water and at the beach. It meant we could concentrate on enjoying the experience and came away with some good memories of the trip.We felt the pricing was very reasonable for what was offered. Overall, it was a relaxed, enjoyable couple of hours on the water and a great way to see a different side of Tenby and the surrounding coastline.One small point worth mentioning is the return of the kayaks. Rather than coming back up the beach where we started, the kayaks are returned via the harbour end, involving a fairly substantial walk up and over a rise and then down to the hut. After two hours on the water, that final bit of kayak logistics was surprisingly hard work! Perhaps there is scope to make the kayak collection a little easier for customers returning from the trip, particularly those of us who aren't quite as young as we used to be.That aside, we had a great time and would happily recommend Tenby Adventure to anyone looking for an enjoyable way to explore the Tenby coastline by kayak.

We were a little apprehensive as neither of us had kayaked before, however we wanted to give it a go. Tom was amazing, talked us through the basics then got us in the water. Very knowledgeable about the area and foraging on the beaches. Great adventure, brilliant photos taken by Tom. Would highly recommend.

We had an absolutely fantastic coasteering experience with Mark and the Tenby Adventure team. As a beginner swimmer who had only ever swum in a swimming pool, I was naturally nervous about entering the sea—especially when I saw the waves. However, Mark explained everything clearly before we started, reassured me and gave me the confidence to take part.Throughout the adventure, Mark was friendly, patient and extremely attentive. At one point, I was struggling to catch my breath because of the waves and also developed a calf cramp. Mark immediately recognised that I needed assistance and safely supported and towed me through the water until I recovered. His calm approach made me feel safe without taking away from the excitement of the experience.The excellent service began even before the activity. I had accidentally selected the wrong date when making the booking, but when I called Mark, he sorted it out immediately and changed the booking in the system without any difficulty.The entire adventure was exciting, enjoyable and very well organised. I’m genuinely grateful to Mark for his encouragement and support, particularly as this was my first time swimming in the sea. I would highly recommend Mark and the Tenby Adventure team, especially to anyone who may feel slightly nervous or lacks experience in open water. I would certainly love to return with more of my friends!

You saw beautiful landscapes on the tour and learned a lot about the history and geography.

Incredible day out on the kayaks. We got to see seals and all manner of wildlife. Andy was a calm, patient and very funny instructor/guide. Would highly recommend! Andy is able to provide a tour to match all levels of competency and confidence on the water.

Great tour of the town! That all starts with our guide, well informed, well prepared, curteous and absolutely not gimmickey (like so many of these things)

Absolutely brilliant tour! Gareth is a gentleman and an excellent guide with extensive knowledge of the history, culture and mythology of Wales and the development of the Welsh language. He is a very safe driver and there was plenty of time allowed for the various stops planned and unplanned for us oldies! Also the gift of Welsh cakes was an added bonus! Thank you Gareth you made our day out very special.

A great coasteering trip. It was a beautiful part of the coast. With nice rock formations caves and cheese holes to explore as well as having some jumps and areas to get swooshed around in the waves. The water was a dreamy turquoise colour too. Mark the guide was excellent. He made sure you felt safe and was there if you needed him or for any difficult sections but also managed to not feel like he was micro managing everything you did when it wasn't necessary. He also made it feel like he was trying to give us the best experience possible to fit the group and the sea conditions without trying to rush anything which is a massive skill seeing as it's the end of the season. He also had some really interesting facts. Would come back and redo in future.

10th Birthday Party - Group booking. First visit to KartKingdom and could not recommend highly enough. Staff were all attentive and super friendly. Atmosphere relaxed and welcoming. The boys had the BEST time. 5* experience for them all. Thank you so much

Would highly recommend The lads there were very friendly, very helpful with my son as it was his first experience karting, got talking after the session and got told about the kart academy for my son which I will be looking into, very good prices compared to other karting places

Great walking tour. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly. It was a great introduction to the city and our guide gave us several great recommendations for places to eat and things to do. Highly recommend this tour!

Mark was very knowledgeable and personable. He showed us all over without talking AT us and without talking non-stop. A very enjoyable way to get acquainted with Cardiff. Thank you!

Excellent host and tutor great fun

I've canoed before, but not tandem so was a learning curve! Our instructor Nieve was amazing, really informative and gave me good pointers for tandem paddling. Absolutely loved the experience, it's very high, but they way they do it, you don't notice, just appreciate the amazing views! Get to Llangollen early though, as parking is a nightmare!

Very fun and informative. Guide was engaging with interesting stories. Great time. Easy walk. Highly recommend.

Recently did the canoeing activity on the Pontcysyllte aqueduct. Our instructors Rory and Andy were absolutely amazing and ensured we felt comfortable at all times. Shout-out to Nathan as well, for the drive to and from! All in all, it was an absolutely amazing day out and experience and I highly recommend!
