Love it from go to woah! (Wow) It was so much more than advertised and 100% overwhelmed our expectations. Guides were brilliant. The right mix of fun, humorous yet experienced and made us feel safe the whole time even when what they were asking us to do seemed a bonkers and a little bit insane. My kids (12&16) and i would do this trip afain in an instant and will talk about it for years as a mist do when in FNQ. Book it!!! Thanks guys, you were ace!

My son ,my eldest thought that there should have been a guide at the back of the trip for safety,he felt a little uneasy.apart from that it was amazing and great fun.guides were really good.

activity where we were 5 participants, great to be in a small group! sliding down the waterfalls, discovering the tree that is at the origin of avatar, a volcanic lake... it was great!

Excellent day, guides were great, really engaged with the younger kids. would highly recommend
