We had a great time! We had 4 adults and a 7 yo and it was the perfect adventure. The guides were very helpful and careful, which made the experience very fun. If we ever come back to San Miguel we will do this again.

The guides were absolutely amazing and brought such a fun energy and were so encouraging and kind. Made for an absolute adventure.
Had a great time!!! The instructors were wonderful! This was our first experience canyoning and it was awesome. Definitely one of the highlights of our Azores trip.
We had a great experience! Super welcoming, safe, and fun!! The guides truly made the experience memorable.
We had so much fun! Our tour guides were amazing, i was so nervous and they made me feel at home and helped ease my anxiety. My kids ranged in age from 13 to 6 and were able to complete the course.
Awesome experience and one of the highlights of our trip! Our guides were so friendly and fun, and they accommodated everyone’s experience/comfort level (from adventure seeking 16-21 year old boys to scared of heights adults). They also took pictures for us all along the way. They communicated via WhatsApp with arrival info the day before and everything was seamless. I’d highly recommend Gonzales (spelling?) and Diego!
Fantasic experience with very kind and patient guides. Could not of asked for anything else! Highly recommend this!

This was our favorite activity of our stay. Easily the most beautiful spot on the island. Give yourself some extra time to show up early and take some pictures in the beautiful gardens at the meeting point. We were lucky to visit while the hydrangeas were in full bloom and had a beautiful sunny day! This activity combines sight seeing with physical activity which is important to our family. Our kids can only handle so many stop and look at this view moments! We traveled with a 9 and 11 year old and the guides were so great with them. Only warning is that you do hike in at the start of the tour which was hot in all the gear, but you will be glad you have that wetsuit once you enter the water for sure! We loved every moment!
We had the best time on this tour! We brought our ten year old son and are 40 ourselves. Everything felt safe but exciting. The adults could do all the tasks. They were able to modify things for our ten year old as needed. Your child should be able to swim. The equipment was in good repair. The guide was friendly and fun. He felt very professional. This was one of the best things we did in Sao Miguel and were so happy to start our trip this way. Don't bring your sunglasses, phone or camera. They take photos and you will want your hands free. Wear your swimsuit and they will take care of the rest.
It really is great for all capability levels. The guides were very aware of safety and were so encouraging!
We had a really great canyoning tour! It was perfectly suited for beginners, but still offered a few exciting little challenges.
A big compliment to the team: The three guides were super nice, funny, and extremely professional. Everything was always explained exactly beforehand and during, and we were able to take exactly the time we needed for every passage. Because of that, we felt absolutely safe at every moment.
For us, the tour was definitely one of the absolute highlights of our vacation. We can 100% recommend it!

Fun and active activity in a very nice environment. Good and cheerful guidance. We were fine with our 2 children (11 and 13). However, they must dare a little and not be afraid of heights
