4.00Great fun!! A lot of ‘hanging around though’ a lot! During the experience whilst waiting for others to go through some falls. Also at the end. We finished an hour and a half before the last group, no toilets at the end to use. I would suggest you uber to and from location, but need to also be aware the bus with all of your things doesn’t arrive till over an hour after my team finished atleast!
Great experience for the whole family
