I’d just like to give some feedback about the surf party I booked with you for four kids. I would highly recommend this to any parent as an excellent alternative party idea. The children absolutely loved it, it was fun, safe and supervised by an excellent instructor (Mark) and 3 of 4 kids were standing up by the end of the lesson.

Coasteering Customer Review: Thank you for our coasteering on Saturday at the Gower. Ann was a great guide and although I have only just got feeling back into my toes but we all had a great time and enjoyed every minute!

Just a short note to say thank you for the fabulous day quad biking we had with you on Sunday. Oliver and his friends had a wonderful time and told me afterwards it was the best quad bike party they had ever had. They thought the quad biking was brilliant. All the instructors were excellent with the children, being professional, firm but also good fun. I will be recommending a party at your centre to all my friends.

Excellent – Great Fun! Both Nigel and Aaron were excellent instructors for our full day of surfing and paddleboarding, friendly and keen to help us get the best out of the day.

Mark M, Yorkshire
We are so glad that we booked our son’s birthday party with Adventures Wales, you took all the stress away and made everything so enjoyable. All the children had a fantastic time and the smiles on their faces were great to see! The party invitation was a nice touch, being able to just download it and pass it on to all of the children – so quick and easy!

Just to say a big thank you to Adventures Wales an in particular Edward (Ed) who was such a terrific guide on our Four Waterfalls walk. He was ever so knowledgeable on the area and great fun. A fab day had by all the family and we’ll definitely come back.
Just a quick email to say thanks Adventures Wales for organising my stag weekend in Wales last week. Everyone had a great time thanks to your help and easy going attitudes. As planned everyone was pretty tired after the amazing activities and I avoided being tied to a lamp post in Cardiff ! My liver did take a bashing though. Anyway, a great stag weekend, great activities with plenty of good memories of Cardiff and Wales. Thanks again for a great Welsh stag weekend.

Just wanted to leave some customer feedback, the team at Adventures wales were very experienced abseiling instructors, knowing that for many people it was their first time doing a charity abseil and a very scary experience. However, their approach to each individual was very calm, reassuring and professional. A big thank you to all the staff.

Lisa | Logica Charity Abseiling Event, S.Wales
Following our quad biking activity yesterday, we wanted to let your team know that we had a really great time. We were impressed with facilities and thought your staff were extremely professional and yet at the same time know how to have a laugh with young people.

Bethlehem Life Church, Bridgend
Just a quick note to say a big thank you for Charlie’s laser shooting party on Saturday, he thoroughly enjoyed. One of the boys even said it was the best party he had ever been to in his life
