5.00It was by far one of our favourite experiences. With 2 great guides, Felipe and Tico we made our way through something out of a movie. You need to have a good fitness level and be able to follow instructions, it was our first time canyoning and would do it again! Take a moment to listen to the sounds and movement around you, also ask Philipi about his mushroom joke. The highlight: "Go get your bag" - find out what that means yourself hahaha
