1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?

The Pembrokeshire coast is awesome and there can't be a better way of exploring it than in a kayak with a small like minded group. Highlights were scooting through natural arches, exploring caves, racing through small channels between rocks, sailing rafted up, lunching on secluded beaches, spotting a seal swimming around us and catching some surf on the way into shore.

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?

This trip works whether you go with a group of mates or on your own. I went alone, but within 5 minutes of arriving I met up with our group for the weekend, most of whom came alone, we got chatting and ended the weekend like old friends. As a complete beginner it was great to have a professional instructor that kept you safe but at the same time encouraged everyone to have a go at increasingly challenging stuff throughout the weekend. No one felt pressured and we were all amazed to find ourselves taking on waves through rocky channels.

Stuff to take: swimming costume and lots of thin quick dry layers to wear when kayaking cos you do get wet or at least I did and its good to be toasty cos the weather can be changeable! (I took a long sleeve thermal and a quick dry long sleeve top and found them good to wear over the longjohn wetsuit and under the cag they give you. Best to have a fresh set for both days in case the drying room gets full and your stuff doesn't dry out. Teva sandals or similar are handy to wear in the kayak cos you can get in and out of the water and walk across rocks etc in them. Take some easy to pull on dry stuff to chuck on when you get out of the water, E.g. couple of pairs of long shorts or for girls a wrap around skirt and a couple of fleecy type tops.

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?

As with all responsible travel holidays I have booked I was pleased to see the operator made every effort to reduce impact on the environment and inform and encourage us all to do likewise.

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?

All good - the friendly vibe, great food, the beautiful coastline, the exhilarating kayaking, the excellent instruction, the fun company and ...the friendly vibe... I arrived Friday frazzled from work and left Sunday happily refreshed and energetic, wishing I could go back to Friday and do it all over again. A great escape from London.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?

Being at Sea with the Seals was a tremendous experience. Fortuitously the weather was quite wonderful, the sea flat and the Seals whilst shy were still around for us to see. The operator staff were encouraging but coached the whole group to respect the distance we kept from the these shy and wonderfully attractive animals.

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?

Do it. What a wonderful way to see Pembrokeshire, bobbing around on the Sea looking up at the magnitude of this craggy coastal scene.

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?

The impact on the local environment seemed so very small, we supported a local business by using this operator and shopped locally for our purchases of goodies to take home. I really appreciated taking a brief break from kayaking in ocean to enjoy some local hospitality with a great meal at St David's the smallest city in the UK.

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?

This was a fantastic break. I have already recommended to my friends and we are planning to come back soon. Thank you Responsible travel for leading me towards this great weekend venture.

Just book it, the facilities and staff were great

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?

I believe that the enviromental impact was well considered but other than the staff, we had no real integration with the local community

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?

First class

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?

Walking along the coast path enjoying the beautiful views.

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?

Take spare towels, swim stuff as ours didn't dry overnight and its horrid getting into cold wet swim stuff!

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?

Minimized impacts, but coaches weren’t local and cook was Canadian!

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?

It was good, especially for people who hadn't been coasteering, kayaking and surfing before. The coaching for Surfing that we have experienced in Wales and Croyd previously was far superior. We were disappointed by the food and bar closing at 9pm!

We’d like to thank Vikki for her feedback, we really appreciate the chance to find out what we do well, and what we can do better. We’re really sorry that some aspects of her experience didn’t meet expectations, our staff always aim to be personable and friendly and would have jumped at the chance to do their utmost to rectify any disappointing aspects of the trip, had they been made aware of the shortcomings at the time. Thanks again.
