Full Day Tandem Kayak Hire on the River Wensum
Deal overview
We offer kayak hire for a full day, or five and a half hour, period. Kayaking is a wonderful way to enjoy a river, especially in our modern drop-stitch inflatable kayaks - and on the River Wensum in Norwich.
As this is a rental session, you choose the route and pace. Our suggested itineraries are: paddling upstream into the heart of rural Norfolk, going with the flow to the centre of Norwich, or stopping off on the way at Norwich VR and experiencing a journey of a very different kind - with a 10% discount as our customers!
Our kayaks are two-person models so you can bring a friend, family member or first date! We can rent out two at a time for groups of four as well. Children from the age of six can take part and it’s not necessary to have previous experience.
We’ll start the session with a demo, give you tips on safety and kit you out with buoyancy aids, kayaks and paddles. For a small additional cost, you can also take dry bags and waterproof phone cases with you.
The journey ends where it started, at our venue in a pub garden. Drink, anyone?
