Cambridge Rowing Experience Bewertungen 

I had the pleasure of attending the Cambridge Rowing Experience and getting to know about all things rowing! The whole session was extremely immersive and Omar & his team were incredible on the day at explaining everything in a way that made it simple and enjoyable. It really was a great experience with a lot of team building. I would honestly 100% recommend this to any of my friends, colleagues and clients for a future event.

I booked a rowing taster day for me and my teenage daughter and it was a brilliant experience from start to finish.

We were in a group of eight people and none of us had rowed before, some people came in pairs, others by themselves. We began with a short introduction to the sport and spent half an hour on a rowing machine after being taught the basic technique.

Our coach made everything really simple and didn’t bamboozle us with rowing jargon which was a relief for our first outing. From there we took an eight out onto the river after some tutoring riverside and put what he told us into practice on the water.

Clear coaching, plenty of patience, and a good sense of humour from everyone throughout meant we were soon rowing down the river together.

We made a lot of progress in a short space of time, and it’s a really fun way to spend a couple of hours on the River Cam. Be warned - you might come away with the rowing bug.

The whole rowing experience was great! Our cox instruction was simple and easy to follow. Me and my daughter truly enjoyed from start to finish!

We booked our company spring event with Omar and unfortunately the day we booked the weather was just awful, it was too dangerous to row so Omar and his team still managed to make our experience great and we have been invited back to row on the river which we plan to do this summer, I would 100% recommend this if you are looking for a corporate event for your staff.

Having seen the rowers on the river but never known how to give it a go, this was an ideal way to try it out. Friendly, relaxed and knowledgeable, we soon felt at ease and quickly got to grips with the technique. Loads of fun, I'd definitely recommend to anyone give this a go. Hope to come back soon for more! Thank you!

Loved it and felt at ease immediately. Instructor was super clear with all instructions and in just a few hours, improved my beginner running skills hugely! Definitely be back again for more lessons.

I had the first go with rowing with the Cambridge Rowing Experience. It was an incredible day and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to try rowing for the first time! We spent the first part on the rowing machine learning the proper technique and then we went straight out on an eight boat. Omar is an amazing teacher, is very methodical, puts beginners at ease and leaves you feeling confident to go out on the water! Highly recommended!

An excellent way to approach this sport.

Omar has been really friendly and accurate in teaching the basics. The whole experience was simply fun, and the sense of teamwork becomes clear as soon as you take your first stroke. I highly recommend it.

I had a fantastic time at the Cambridge Rowing experience. Omar was an excellent coach – patient, clear, and genuinely enthusiastic about helping us improve. I was honestly surprised by how much progress we made in such a short time. By the end, we were actually rowing together smoothly, which felt amazing! The whole session was fun, well-structured, and really rewarding. Highly recommend, especially with Omar as your coach.

Well it was my first ever experience rowing anything other than a kayak. Omar was relaxed and knowledgeable and I felt like I progressed quickly as a result. It left me wanting to get back on the river again.

Had a group event with Cambridge Rowing Experience, and it was brilliant. Well organised, fun, friendly and learned a huge amount. Recommended.

Very friendly. Well explained. Beautiful setting

This rowing experience was the highlight of our 2 week trip around Great Britain. All credit goes to our instructor who took 8 people who had no idea what they were doing and trained us in short order to row together as a team on the River Cam. And it was so fun! We learned the stroke technique on the rowing machines, then proceeded to practice in the boat alongside the shore. For the last hour or so, we actually rowed the 8-man boat on the river! Now I walk around telling people "I rowed at Cambridge"! Don't miss this!!!

Absolutely fabulous experience! Would highly recommend! Thank you Omar for such a fun time!!! I may have got ‘the bug’!!!!

Brilliant team event!
I had a fantastic rowing experience as part of a corporate event for 10 people! The session was enjoyable, relaxed, and run with great professionalism. It was perfectly suited to all abilities, whether you’re a complete beginner or more experienced. One of the best parts is that you don’t get wet at all, making it ideal even for non-swimmers. A really accessible and fun activity for everyone!

Excellent outing. Highly recommend.

It was like being back at uni for me (decades ago) whilst first timers such as my partner were expertly tutored and supported in their first ever opportunity to crew an eight boat. The atmosphere was friendly and fun and the feeling of successfully rowing past the boat clubs on the Cam was very satisfying! Everything was thought of from an initial tutorial on ergs to carrying our boat and blades out ready to show off our skills.
Highly recommended and great value for money.

I've always wanted to try rowing but didn't know how to get into what seems like a different world...so this experience was perfect! The instructor was great - the right amount of encouragement and fun mixed with clear technical feedback. After one session, I already feel like a rower and have been back since for more. A very welcoming club and all round positive experience which I can't recommend highly enough to anyone who would like to give rowing a go.

Mr son has done this course twice now 2024 and 2025 and we've just signed up for another interview 2025. I could not believe that within one day a group of teenagers and children could lift, carry, care for and row a boat as a TEAM! It's amazing! The coaches are excellent. It's very relaxed and a wonderful experience.

Relaxed, friendly and encouraging instruction gently helping us novices understand the beauty of rowing when you can all pull together in the boat. Great experience, would highly recommend
