Tour programme- Preparation:
When you arrive at the agreed time at our base, you will be given the equipment necessary for the activity and have time to change. If you arrive by car, parking is widely available nearby. When you have finished, a briefing will follow, during which the route will be explained to you in detail. You will then be divided in groups of maximum 8 participants, and each group will be assigned to a guide. If you are a larger group, up to 20 people, you can still participate all together, as you will be accompanied by several guides. Afterwards, we walk to the starting point, that we will reach in about 20 minutes to start the adventure.
- Tour:
The route is full of jumps and rappels, but it is perfect for children as the jumps are not compulsory. If you don't feel ready for it yet, the guide will let you down on the rope.
- Arrival:
After a cheerful and enjoyable tour, we all return to the base when you can change clothes. If you want to relax and enjoy the sun after the activity, close to our base there is a public garden with BBQ grills to use for free!

It was great, our first time with them (mother and 17-year-old son).
Good guidance, friendly and helpful. The little boy was also amazing on the trip; he knew exactly what he was doing and was super helpful.
Another guide was also up for a joke, which made it very fun.
I highly recommend this and would book again in a heartbeat. It was simply TOP! Keep up the good work!
