Three Liverpool Ladies Take on the Rapids… and Survive!
michelleeverton,Mar 7, 2026

5.00Three mature Liverpool ladies decided it was a good idea to try white water rafting for the first time… and honestly we had the time of our lives! 🌊😂 Massive shout-out to our guides Sol and Jack who were brilliant. Their instructions were super clear (which is exactly what you need when three women are screaming and paddling in completely different directions!). They made us feel totally safe but still gave us the full thrilling experience. The whole thing was organised perfectly and the atmosphere was great from the start. Plenty of laughs, a few screams, and a lot of “are we actually doing this?!” moments. We had an absolute ball and would 100% do it again. If three Liverpool ladies of a certain age can survive it and come out wanting another go, anyone can! 😄 Thanks again Sol and Jack — we’ll definitely be back.
Water was fast, fun but safe

5.00Great team with a sense of humour and happy in their work! We were well looked after, I had my none year old son in our raft but our guide Mike, was really reassuring and extremely cognisant in terms of balancing fun with safety.
Amazing guys who make you feel safe !

5.00Brilliant experience. Although I went on my own, I was able to share the experience with like-minded people who added to the exhilaration of the day. Thoroughly recommend the guides and the business for the ease of booking; care of those on the trip to keep us safe; and the overall experience. The water was nice and high too which made it even more exhilarating. The photographer who was also waiting for us at the side of the water provided some fantastic photos which added to the memories of the experience.
Super fun! Cold in...

5.00An exhilarating and fun experience! We had a raft for four of us - all aged 50-68 - with a great 'Bearded Man Crew' Sol! He was thorough when going through the health and safety and made the trip down the river exciting, fun and very wet!!!! I screamed, I shut my eyes and I laughed all the way down! Can highly recommend the experience.
A Fun Time to be had by anyone!
