"Top guide, thanx Theo
Tour was ok, for the first time, could have been a little more action, but water was also flat
Otherwise mega through the canyon, very impressive"Oliver, August 12, 2022
"It was a very nice experience. The guides are competent and friendly. If you don't dare to jump, there is the possibility of sliding or abseiling.
It is half an hour away by car.
And 10 min walk to the starting point and from the end point to the car.
Eat and drink well in advance, because this is not possible during canyoning."Heleen, August 3, 2022
