It was super fun and adventurous. It is a level 1 canyoning so if you want more of an adrenaline rush I don't recommend this activity. But if you are looking to jump, swim and walk around in nature this is definitely the adventure you are looking for!!

Super activité à faire, très douces physiquement même si certains passages demandent un peu d’efforts, une bonne partie du parcours consiste à se laisser porter par le courant si on le désire et accessoirement grimper à gauche et droite pour les amateurs de sensations fortes avec quelques beaux sauts dans l’eau. Je recommande vraiment

Top-notch canyoining in Marbella! Beoordeling van Canyoning Marbella - niveau 1 1 week geleden beoordeeld via mobiele applicatie Google-vertaling I recently had an incredible canyoning tour experience that left me speechless! our guide "Daniel" is a professional guide who was enthusiastic and knowledgeable, he ensured our safety and made the adventure enjoyable for everyone, he is the best of the best ! I really recommend to do a tour with him as guide. We rappelled down waterfalls, slid through rock slides, and jumped ifrom the rocks into the water, surrounded by breathtaking nature. It's a must-try adventure for adrenaline-seekers and nature lovers alike

A good introduction to canyoning. Felt safe all the time, but we got to push our limits in the jumps. No doubt that this was the highlight of our 2 weeks in the area according to our boys (10 and 12). Can’t wait to get the pictures!

This has been our second canyoning tour of this river. The beauty of the river and the surroundings is unbelievable. The activity itself is fun for the family. Not so difficult but you always have to be aware that you are walking in a river with rocks and boulders so take your time to enjoy the activity.

Really good for beginners

  • 5 / 5

It was our first time we did canyoning. This course was perfect. The level was perfect to get in touch the first time with this kind of adventure. All jumps could be done, the most time from different heights. When you did not want to jump, you could pass by. The duration of in total 4 hours was OK. At the beginning there is a walk of around 20 min. to the starting point. It is full acceptable.

Canyoning was a thrill for the whole family

  • 5 / 5

I absolutely loved jumping from the rocks, the higher the better! My husband isn't a strong swimmer but didn't struggle since there were plenty of breaks between swimming, scrambling up rocks, abseling and walking. We were absolutely shattered after but in a good way. My best advice would be to wear some trainers with good grip that you don't mind getting soaked. We went in March because it was our anniversary - being off peak meant we were the only three people climbing in the gorge and the weather was perfect.

Awesome he instructor contacted us via WhatsApp for the meeting place and we could ask him questions through that or email and he always answered.

Un super animateur , un super paysage , une super expédition !! Je vous conseille vivement cette expérience :D

  • 5 / 5

Nach kurzer Einweisung ging es gleich in den Canyon. Für die ca. 1 Km lange Strecke brauchten wir rund 2 Stunden. Die Highlights waren neben der tollen Natur die 6-7 Sprünge von den Felsen (max. Höhe ca. 7m) und das Abseilen aus ca. 10m. Unbedingt an rutschfeste Schuhe und einen wasserdichten Beutel für das Handy denken.

It was brilliant, Juan looked after us really well and we absolutely enjoyed this activity. Would do it again no doubt. It's not only adrenaline burst its also very beautiful, you get to see canyons from below and appreciate their grandiosity.

Our family of five did the canyoning tour at Guadalmina Canyon and it was hands down the highlight of our visit. Kids ranged in age from 11-19; it was challenging at points but definitely doable. Took us all out of comfort zone jumping from the rocks.

We were a group of10 mostly unfit. We were varied in ages with 4 of us in our 50's. I will be honest it was physically challenging at times but only because we don't climb/scramble/crawl over rocks on a daily basis! We would thoroughly recommend this activity. Give it a go, it's. a u inquest experience which won't be forgotten. Can't wait to receive our photos
