Let's Get Lost

Hi fab afternoon and Sophie our guide was amazing . Will do it again and recommend to others . Roy

Fantastic experience kayaking to the Waterside Inn with two brilliant guides. Very relaxing and we saw a lot of beautiful countryside and wildlife. I am a total beginner and not very fit/ active but didn't struggle too much. Takes a little while to pick up the technique but it's not hard and I really recommend it to anyone who has not tried kayaking before and/ or is nervous!

Took my Dad for Father’s Day and he loved it!! We both loved it! I’d never kayaked before but our instructor Sophie was lovely, calm and an all round star! The whole experience was really therapeutic and even though it was chucking it down with rain we had just as much fun as we would have on a sunny day. We loved it!! Definitely try it out even if you’ve never done it before - I was nervous myself before going but the instructors put you at ease and make the whole experience a dream! Thank you so much - will definitely be coming again!

We had a great one hour taster session for our son’s 9th birthday with 3 other boys and 5 adults. The instructor Brandon was great with both kids and adults. He made sure we were all safe and knew what we were doing and then left us to have a really relaxed paddle for an hour. We all had a great time and I would definitely recommend Let’s Get Lost!

Did an unguided 2-hour Kayak trip. Absolutely wonderful staff and service. Provide you with all the gear for Kayaking, and a safety brief at the start. The route was so scenic and peaceful, in a great location, with cute pubs that you can go to at the end of the trip. Would highly recommend, especially for the summer. Will definitely be trying some of their other experiences in future

We did the guided Paddle to the pub kayak and had a fantastic time. The guide, Sophie was lovely, we got to learn some techniques and the scenery along the way was really pretty. We stopped at the pub for a delicious meal then headed back. I have already recommended it to my friends and will definitely be coming back again.

Half a day kayaking trip to the pub with Anthony turned out to be a perfect birthday treat for my wife, friend and myself!Despite the grim weather forecast decided to go ahead and give it a go with no delay. It was no doubt the best get away experience just few miles away from Leicester. Been in town for nearly 15 years and never thought that such a short trip would give us so much joy, relax but also “adrenaline” in some moments. Absolutely 5 star+ rating and must to do activity in Leicestershire.

My Dad used a gift voucher I'd bought him to book a kayaking session. The company cancelled it hours before, citing weather concerns, despite it being a beautiful, still, sunny day – and, in fact, the warmest day of the month! They also told him they'd be closing for the season that very day, so he couldn't rebook.Despite this, even days later they were offering sessions on their website... which is a suspect way of getting payment from people and then not delivering on sessions. All communication requesting refund have been ignored.I'm really disappointed by this experience because, from other reviews, the instructors seem great. I guess the company handling them are disorganised and/or overwhelmed.I remember reading other reviews about late cancellations and unprofessionalism and should have heeded their warnings. I wish I'd saved £40 and booked with another company.I'm now working with FareHarbor, the voucher company used by let's Get Lost, on finding a fix and making sure others don't lose their money this way.

During an activity weekend in Leicester, kayaking here was the one myself and my eldest daughter were both most looking forward to - and it did not disappoint.When we arrived, Sophie our instructor showed us the kayaks and gave us options of which ones we wanted.We went in twos and, after the all-important safety demonstration, we donned our life jackets, picked up the kayaks and headed for the River Soar.After getting into the boats and, with Sophie's helpful hints and tips, we soon got the hang of the paddles and were journeying down the river.This, I think, was the most relaxing part of the weekend - the sound of the lapping water and taking in all the wildlife on the riverbanks.Sophie's instruction ensured we not only stayed safe but also had a great time as she enlightened us about the things we were seeing in the surrounding area.When we got back, we were tired but exhilarated from the trip and I would definitely recommend this activity.Whether it is, as we did, a family trip, with friends, or even for a birthday, anniversary or special occasion - I defy anyone not to be wowed and inspired by this highly enjoyable past time.
