One route circles paddlers around the city centre and the others head in varying distances towards Thorpe St Andrew.

Groups can stop off for breaks in a handful of riverside pubs along the way.

The experience was launched in 2016 by Nick Hanington and Chantal Verlinden who wanted to bring something different to the city.

In a Facebook post, Pub and Paddle said: "As always, thanks so much for reviewing us and sharing your canoeing and kayaking experiences.

"It means a lot to us and helps small businesses like ours spread the word."
