“This was my first experience of canyoning but I thoroughly enjoyed the experience with Pablo - he was an amazing guide and very knowledgeable about the history and culture of the island. I could tell he was very experienced and he has just set up his own business. The route and scenery were so beautiful and safety was his number one concern - he let me build my confidence and do the skills with increasing independence as the trip went on. He took excellent photos during the trip and also discussed his commitment to decreasing waste during his tours. Sent me an exact location to meet at - very easy.…”
