Kayaking, Zip-lining and Free running Through London Offers Three Very Different Perspectives of the City.
On water
I’m not at my most noble during the first half of my Big Ben by Twilight tour on the Thames with Kayaking London.
The water is warm and dark brown and I don’t really want to think about why. My paddling technique is terrible, and I’m quickly developing a blister between my thumb and forefinger. My kayaking partner is meant to be steering but insists that our rudder isn’t working; we driftalternately to the centre traffic of the river, or off to the tide-washed walls.
Our guides gamely offer encouragement and instruction, clucking gently over us like mother geese dealing with errant goslings, but boy does it feel like hard work.
