Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Had a great time, Pete our guide was really friendly and took time to encourage and offer support, options for the more adventurous and easier paths for those that weren't.

My 11yo son and I had a fantastic session with Lewis. He was super kind, considerate and helpful and made sure we had a brilliant time on our Ghyll Scramble. It was a cold day in late October but with all the kit provided we felt very comfortable. I wholeheartedly recommend this!

Such a great experience, so exhilarating. Would definitely do it all over again. The wetsuits were excellent, didn’t feel the cold of the water at all. Our guide Jay was brilliant.

Booked activities with Keswick Adventure as part of my stag weekend in the lakes. Really easy booking process and from start to finish very helpful and efficient at getting us booked in etc.
We had booked the raft building and scrambling however unfortunately the scrambling had to be cancelled due to flooding. The team were fab with their communication as we were informed in plenty of time the day before that things might need to be changed around. The team (Lewis and Jay) were fab, really helpful and made the raft building equally competitive but fun. Also they took some fab pictures which were sent over by the end of the day.
Overall I’d definitely book through Keswick adventures again!!

4 of us went canoeing on stunning Derwentwater in the Lake District and a had a fantastic time.
Our instructor Lewis was awesome, he was very knowledgeable and his passion for the outdoors really shows. Super friendly, he puts you at ease immediately. He recognised our individual strengths and weaknesses so tailored his instruction appropriately, no matter how experienced you are you always felt looked after.
Would definitely recommend Lewis and Keswick Adventures and would love to go back for more fun!

Well organised and structured for the whole event. Knowledgeable friendly instructors who put us all at ease. The actual hydrospeeding was amazing and the added bonus of jumping off a cliff off low force!! Lots of photos and videos taken for us by the instructors too so we've got a nice reminder of the day.

An amazing experience with our lovely instructor, Jay, today. Great fun throughout the whole session and very informative. Even, in ever changing weather conditions on the lake this session was adapted to kayaking on a board due to wind changes . We learnt a lot about this whole experience and we can't wait to get back out on the paddleboard again. Thank you so much Jay and Keswick Adventures for making this a holiday nighlight

Hello, I am coming with my brother on Friday, Do you have the paddle boarding lessons with just me and my brother or with lots of other people?

You have your lesson with the whole group but it’s very basic and quick - the best way to learn is to get on,get wet and find your balance in your own time. I thought I’d never get the hang of it - trying to go in a straight line with just 1 paddle, isn’t easy - but I did. And at no time did I feel foolish or a nuisance . Dave kept giving out tips and encouragement to everyone. He made it fun! I hope you enjoy it as much as we did! I’m trying to get another session sorted...
