5.00Expect to get wet. If bringing a camera (go pro) would have some means of tying it around something.
Scary but worth it.

5.00Top shelf crew. I was most worried about safety but all gear was excellent and multiple back ups. Lots of adrenalin. First descent is a doozy, 170’ but super exciting. Worth it.

4.00All of the rappels and the monkey drop were fun! Operators ensured kids didn’t get too wet and that everyone was safe, but if you don’t want to get the full waterfall experience you better clearly communicate that or you will be drenched. Guides were all friendly, but less interactive compared to other tours and communication could have been better before and after.
Just go

5.00Just go, stop wasting time debating on if you’ll think it’s fun, will you get wet, is it too high and go. Knocked our socks off in the best of ways.

5.00This was a highlight of our trip. The guides were professional and experienced. We were there on a very busy day and they got us through like a well oiled machine without feeling rushed. The scenery was beautiful. Experiencing the rainforest along with the fun of rappelling down a variety of waterfalls and drops was amazing. Don’t let fear of heights stop you - several in the group were hesitant for this reason but found the experience not nearly as intimidating as they thought it might be. The youngest person in our group was 6 and managed all 5 descents. The monkey drop has the option not to participate, but we found ourselves up the ladder with no point of return before we realized it. However it was thoroughly enjoyable for all of us. The uphill hikes between two waterfalls and at the end were a little tiring for someone not quite in shape but there was plenty of time to take a breather and then carry on. Biggest tip - keep your hands in the correct places on the rope - a few individuals forgot this and their hands got a little pinched on the managed ‘free fall jump’ at the end. Our family enjoyed it so much we wished we could turn around and immediately do it again!
Canyoning is amazing!!!!
