Our guide (Lionel) was perfect to help us discover canyoning (with my children aged 9 and 12).
The outing itself was great, accessible for children (but challenging nonetheless).
Be careful, however, after canyoning a side walk (steep) for 30 / 40mn which exhausted the children after 2h30 in the water, parents get ready to hear them moan 😅

Despite the coolness and the rain, a magnificent canyon. Lots of jumps with adjustable or avoidable height by abseiling. Guides Abel and his super nice son.
