"A superb experience with our guide Christophe, a kind, fun, and generous person. Thank you so much for this wonderful afternoon spent on the river! From Quebec :)"Amaryllis · July 2026
"Very fun activity for reasonably sporty people. Similar to canyoning but much easier. You can make jumps (up to 7 meters), but if you don't dare, you don't have to. The hike there and back involves quite a few elevation changes. You go down the river via streams. Not very scary."Simone · July 2026
"A beautiful, child-friendly trip with good guidance. It was my daughter's first experience with wild water and jumping off rocks. She loved it, and thanks in part to the good guidance, she overcame her fears. Highly recommended!"
