My wife and I joined four other couples in two-person canoes to paddle along a really lovely winding route along the canal to and from the aqueduct. Clear instructions and guidance was given to ensure as safe and as enjoyable a journey was possible. The aqueduct itself and the surrounding views were amazing and topped off a fantastic couple of hours. We will definitely be booking one/some of Bearded Men Adventures other activities.Written 17 March 2025

Fab experience all round with Bearded Men Adventures!
Booking was easy online, all relevant information was passed before our session and we found the site easily with the directions provided in the confirmation emails. The site itself has nearby parking (£4 all day), changing rooms, toilets and the guys lock all personal belongings away whilst you’re out doing the activity.
Our guide on the day was Pete who was lovely, very friendly and gave us clear guidance on the river to keep us safe. We luckily had great weather and so much fun doing the activity! Laughed non stop! Pete even very kindly took photos and videos for us as a reminder of the day.
Would definitely recommend Bearded Men Adventures to anyone and will be coming back ourselves to try out some of the other activities. Thanks guys!

My family and myself (9 of us in total) had a fantastic time doing the river tubing. Dan and Sol were fantastic instructors and made sure we were safe and it was run well without compromising the adrenaline of the actual experience. We all had different abilities, from my 12 year old daughter to 60+ year old and everyone in between. I highly recommend booking an experience with these guys and we will be booking again when we visit Llangollen again. Cheers guys.

We had previously used BMA for white water rafting so was expecting a fun time tubing! It was better than expected, our guide Alex made it so much fun challenging us while in the calm sections and guiding us through the rapids! Amazing way to float down the river!

Best outdoor experience we have done by far. The team were one of the most capable and welcoming I have ever come across. Furgus and Dan were our instructors, making you us laugh and feel very safe on the experience. We loved it that much we also bought there spiced rum with is equally as enjoyable. We deffinelty will be booking other activities with them and I would recommend anyone to do the same.
Cheer lads!

Great afternoon activity; was all of the following at times: fun, relaxing, challenging and a rush. Highlight was jumping into the Serpents Tail. Kudos to Sol who looked after us all with the calmness of a man twice his tender years, especially my wife who kept floating off and needed rescuing more than once. Highly recommended.

10/10 recommend. Such a fun experience, I was quite nervous but felt very safe with our instructors Dan and Steve. I went with my boyfriend and we booked on for the 9am river tubing, was just us booked for that session so it was like a private session & we got to do the rapids a few times which was even better. Had such a great day and it’s something different to do. Also, it was a grey, rainy morning and that didn’t make it any worse, it was still really fun and we weren’t cold as the wetsuits provided kept us really warm so we could enjoy the experience

What an amazing morning! My son and I had such a fantastic time tubing down the River Dee.
Sol was very thorough in his detailed explanation of what we could expect and what we should do during the tubing trip. Such an awesome and fun experience doing this with the knowledge that Sol was there looking out for us throughout. Steve, the driver, was punctual, he drove to drop us off at the start and was waiting to collect us again at the end. Overall, an experience I would highly recommend, especially if you have Sol in charge.
