Zip lining, repelling. - Had a great time. Our guides were able to pick us up at our hotel. They were all extremely friendly, knowledgeable and easygoing. Zip lining, repelling was a blast. A must do if you are visiting the island.

Had a blast - I had a blast with Guilherme, Ivan, and Maissan! They were fabulous guides. The experience was challenging but I felt super safe the whole time. This canyon was really beautiful and has a lot less jumps and more repelling (one through a waterfall). While I was terrible at it, I had a ton of fun. I would absolutely recommend!

Fun and exciting - Fantastic experience and our guides were the best! Can’t recommend this highly enough. Even when you’re not rappelling you're hiking through streams so the whole time is fun

Great Experience! - Best guides: the guides were really nice and professional. Even with fear of heights I felt safe the whole time. Great experience: It’s great to see the area Salto do Cabrito because you’re walking in the water and going down the waterfalls. Would recommend: Just try it. It’ definitely worth it!

Memorable canyoning experience - The trip was a fantastic experience! My husband and I are 61 and 57 respectively and we had never done anything like this before. The guides Guilherme and Ricardo A made us feel completely safe. As a result, there was plenty of room to enjoy challenging descents and the overwhelmingly beautiful nature. Thanks!
