We had the best adventure on the Dollar Canyoning Package. Communication at all stages from enquiry through to checking on us after the event was excellent, all staff were amazing and filled us with confidence. Attention to safety and instructions given at each stage of our canyoning experience were clear, and we were supported and encouraged constantly (especially in times of nervousness) and felt safe throughout the whole experience. We are a group of females all over 50 and try to do one outdoor adventure every year so are familiar with safety equipment etc. The wet suits and shoes provided far exceeded the quality of any others that we have had access to. The boots were sturdy, keeping us sure footed and the wetsuits kept us warm enough as temperatures in the water started to drop. The additional service of being picked up/dropped off in the minibus was a real bonus. Ross was super helpful with other advice about bars and restaurants in the area we were staying, an example of how all the staff went above and beyond to make our whole experience perfect. Nothing was too much trouble, and we would highly recommend Intrepidus Outdoors.
Amazing canyoning trip, not for the weak!

Awesome, awesome adventure. Communication from the night before until after regarding anything that we needed. Ross was so attentive, calm and knowledgeable. I went with 2 of my sons 14 and 11. My 11 year old is a little clumsy so I was worried about him a lot. Ross was calm and took great care of him and the whole group. He also took phenomenal pics and airdropped them to us at no cost! Took us to a great deli after to get lunch. He really went above and beyond. We do a lot of zip lining and have done waterfall repelling before but this was the real deal!
We would do it all over again!

Traveling with an 18 year-old and a 12 year-old. This was their favorite part of our adventure to Scotland by far! Ross and Alex were excellent guides. The communication from the moment we booked the was very proactive. Ross was very timely when responding to my questions. We felt safe the entire time. It felt like a good time with old friends. Highly recommend!

What an amazing adventure. Canyoning Dollar Canyon was a highlight. I was worried as an experienced rock climber that this trip would be too tame but Ross customized this trip and it was the perfect mix of jumps, slides and abseils! In addition, Ross was a wonderful guide, full of tips and insider information about Scotland. I would rate this above 5 stars if possible!
Couples trip to Scotland and Canyoning!!!

Wow!! What a day! To start, Intrepidus Outdoors provided excellent communication from our very first email months before the excursion, up until the day of. Their colorful mini bus promptly picked us up directly from our hotel in Edinburgh and drove our family an hour away to Dollar Canyon. Let me preface this by saying we are a fit family + we have canyoneered in Moab, UT and Maui, Hawaii prior to this excursion, so our family is familiar with harnesses, rappelling, and didn’t have the anxiety that a first-timer might have had in an adventure like this… plus this was the BEST experience we have ever had! Wow!! Our guide, Ross, was friendly and warm and earned our trust quickly on the drive to the canyon. After arriving, we were fitted with neoprene suits, booties and helmets and began a very steep hike up to the top of the falls. The suits kept us quite warm while we cliff jumped, zip-lined, rappelled, slid down rock waterslides, scrambled, and hiked through the canyon for several hours. The excursion requires stamina, physical fitness, and a positive, confident, trusting mindset. What a great way to bond with our teenage boys! This was an experience of a lifetime and we would love to do it again! Thank you Ross and Intrepidus Outdoors for an incredible day!
