John and Karen were super friendly and helpful, great team! We had the BEST day, what a great way to round off our summer holiday before returning to work! We kayaked from 10am to 5pm, and brought lunch to eat on one of our stops. The chutes were just an added bonus to our already amazing day! Also, great value for a whole days worth of fun. Views were stunning… I can’t believe I live 25 minutes from here and have only discovered this place! We will definitely return again and highly recommend!!

Me and my family had an amazing day going up the three locks in a double and a single kayak.
John and Karen were really friendly, fun and helpful. And the equipment they provided was really good quality and they gave us lots of dry bags.
Only downside was we only found out about them in their final few days of their season and could only go once this year. But we will definitely be going again once they start up again in May next year.

Outstanding and easy hire, excellent price could fault anything. John and Karen were great help, the map given gave us average time between each weir. Great day despite being absolutely soaked.

We had a fantastic day in our 2 person canoe. The briefing was very thorough and helpful for us (first timers). John and Karen were very informative and encouraging. They love the river and are very enthusiastic about paddling.

We had the best time kayaking here! The intro given by John was thorough and we had no issues throughout the day. It was so so beautiful and a lot of fun! Definitely recommend Elveys-Canoe!

Such a great day out on the river with everything you need to enjoy the water and the lochs along the way.
John and Karen were so helpful and friendly giving us all the information we could possibly need before heading out in the canoe. Brilliant set up, highly recommend Elveys-Canoe 👍🏻

A great experience with a friendly and well knowledgeable team. Could not have helped more in order to give us the best experience of the river they could even taking photos at the start and storing a bag in their van.
Once on the river you can go as far as you like and back in the time you have which is very good amount of time for the money and the chutes at the locks are great fun. Very easy paddle for beginners. Wildlife pops up every so often to which is great.
Would happily go again and recommend going to others.

Great day out on the river canoeing. John and Karen were great, gave us all the info and equipment we needed, plus a map of the route and what to expect. Loads of nice places to stop along the river, scenery was beautiful. Highly recommend and will definitely be visiting again!

Went there for a nice relaxing kayak ride. Water is very calm this time of year and ideal. Enjoyed some great sights and wildlife too including a Mink who let us get close enough for a half-decent pic.
John was great - very helpful, friendly and accommodating, explained everything clearly and clearly loves what he does.
The kayak came with hide-away storage space, and the equipment was in great shape too, including life jackets, several dry-bags, plus map of the routes.
Planned to spend an hour here, ended up spending 4 and loved every minute of it.
Would highly recommend this company, and this route.
