“This was the most spectacular experience ever as a family with a 13 and 9 year old. The canyoning was beautiful, such a treat swimming through. We had an amazing guide named Sino and he was fantastic, funny and caring towards our 9 year old daughter. He ensured she was safe and the canyon activity was paced for her. The rafting was amazing - Sino and all the other guides made it so much fun - lovely lunch and the zip line and swimming were great added additions. Would highly recommend this trip.”
