Great tour, amazing guide, beautiful spot! A lot of fun! You are in the water for 2-2,5 hours and it is totally doable also for not super super duper fit people. I occasionally work out and for me it worked super well. Also you can park easily the meeting point, even with a big caravan.

Because off the rainfall, the river was very active. Canyoning was with slides, jumps, zipline and go through a narrow hole. A lot of fun.
