Andy was so good as a guide and a teacher, not getting frustrated at all by my not understanding right and left etc!! He found a way to teach me that I could get. And I even enjoyed it after I capsized! How did that happen?! The canoeing was magical, very romantic 🙂 and exhilarating to go over the aqueduct too. Would recommend Ty Nant Outdoors to anyone.
