Thrilling adventure - Great experience. Guided expertly and a friendly group made the experience even better. Not for the faint hearted but great thrill.

Just DO IT! - This was the best canyoning experience I’ve ever done (and I have done others)! Bazz, our guide was very funny, very careful, patient and led an outrageous adventure through the canyon. This is a “must do” activity when you are in Cairns!

Canyoning with Baz and Paulina - We had such a great day with Bazz and Paulina, I was the oldest in the group, but I loved it. As did my niece who is visiting from the UK. You do need an ability to swim and a reasonable level of fitness to really get the most out of the experience. The location you go to is stunning, jumping off rocks in to the river, stunning waterfalls, abseiling and floating through white water rapids. Highly recommend this activity.

First time canyoning and was fantastic!! - Amazing experience!! Didn’t quite know what we had signed up for and this completely pushed us out of our comfort zone! Marcio and Sasha were fantastic guides and made us feel completely safe whilst giving encouragement but always highlighting that everything was optional, so felt no pressure. Had a great group who really helped each other out and cheered each other on. Was originally booked on behana gorge but that was flooded so were moved to crystal cascades. Thank you Marcio and Sasha, this was the highlight of our trip to Cairns!

Get water in a waterfalls while climbing some rocks with great scenery - Give it a go if you looked at it twice you want to do it. They will look after all the way and they will encourage you at all point. Loved it and will do it again

Fantastic experiance WITH child! - Loooved this trip! Guides (Baz & Marseo) were fantastic, always keeping us safe whithout compromise on the fun factor! We took the challenge with our 8 year old daughter and she loved it as much as we did! Anybody who loves a „safe“ thrill is in good hands here!!

Adrenaline Canyoning - Very informed crew with great attitudes. Walked us through the technical parts and made us feel safe a boost of adrenaline with a 90 meter repall and 7 meter cliff jumps!! Even did it in a rain storm. Crew came back a got us because the tender from the ship was a little late.
