J'ai été ravi de la qualité de l'organisation et du sérieux de notre accompagnant. Un petit groupe de 7 bien sympa, tout a long de la journée. Cool et frais...sans avoir froid ! 😀

Très bonne première expérience en canyoning dans les gorges du loup , idéal pour débuter, les derniers sauts sont assez hauts mais pas obligatoires.
Notre guide Jérôme était au top

We had a great time canyoning with the family and I enjoyed some good climbs with my sons. They were flexible and Olivier was helpful and responded really fast.

Level 2 canyoning gedaan. Leuk, gevarieerd parcour met 2x abseilen, vele sprongen en glijbanen. Prachtige natuur. Georges is een topgids die goed op de veiligheid let en duidelijke instructies geeft. Ook de communicatie met Olivier vooraf bij het boeken is perfect.
Er worden geen foto's gemaakt tijdens de canyoning, dat had wel leuk geweest.

Expérience extraordinaire.
Notre guide, Rémi était top, il a su s’adapter à chaque personne et a été à l’écoute.
Et le parcours de 2h-2h30 avec des vues surprenantes est passé à une vitesse incroyable.
Merci Rémi ☺️

Première expérience de canyoning incroyable dans les gorges du Loup. Descente en rappel, toboggans, petits sauts, grands sauts, tout y est !
Un grand merci à Olivier mais aussi aux deux guides, Rémi et Simon, pour leur sympathie et leur professionnalisme !
Merci encore !

My family of 8 (14-38) enjoyed a day of canyoning and absailing whilst in France. We chose Oliver’s company due to his excellent communication. He even gave us lots of recommendations for our trip. He would always get back quickly and was very informative. The rates were excellent as we had over 6 people.

We were met by Julien our guide who was lovely, comical and embraced our Scottish accent. He was a good laugh throughout.

The activity was excellent. We learned to absail too which was fun! Everyone loved the whole experience.

If booking please note: there are no changing areas. We had to change in our cars but we dried quickly in the summer sun.

I would have loved if the guides had cameras to take photos. We done ghyll scrambling in the Lake District and there were 2 guides - one of which would take lots of photos for us! Although I appreciate, another guide would increase costs and the currents in some of the waters may be unsafe! But just a suggestion :)

We would 100% recommend Olivers company  and if we were ever returning to water canyon we would absolutely use this company again!
