5.00My daughter and I had a fantastc two days with Jerry, Prince and the rest of the team. Both the canoeing and the camping were organised in a friendly and professional manner. We enjoyed the paddling, the meals, the campfire and the facilities ( the tents had beds, there is a toilet and a budh shower). We highly recommend this trip and the team
