Awesome experience, very memorable, would highly recommend it. Some parts are mildly terrifying and reminiscent of a roller coaster ride, but we always felt totally safe in the skilled and capable hands of our guide Jenny. We all enjoyed the commentary and conversations, and learned a lot of the history of the area as well as the flora and fauna.

Bloody bumpy ride but definitely one to tick off your bucket list. The guide Andre was the best guide we have ever had. Told us a million stories and was happy to help my husband with the drone shooting. He went wherever my husband wanted (safely Ofcourse) and gave him tips on where to take the best photos. We had our 6 year old twins with us , they were champs. Wouldn’t say it’s a comfortable ride by any means, but definitely an adventure to do.Going through the river crossing and the expertise of Peter the driver, made it an outstanding trip.
