Wir hatten eine super Tour. Lionel hat individuell auf unser Tempo, auch auf das der Kinder geachtet. Tolles Tal für Canyoning mit dem nötigen Nervenkitzel. Ausrüstung und Transport waren top.

Une superbe expérience en famille ! Nous étions quatre à avoir participé à cette sortie canyoning et nous avons tous adoré. Nous nous sommes sentis en totale sécurité tout au long de l’activité grâce à une équipe de professionnels, très à l’écoute, sympathique et rassurante. Les paysages étaient absolument magnifiques et l’expérience était à la fois ludique, sportive et dépaysante. Un très beau moment partagé en famille, avec de beaux souvenirs à la clé ! Je recommande vivement cette activité, aussi bien pour la qualité de l’encadrement que pour la beauté des paysages. Une expérience à refaire sans hésiter ! 😊 Merciii LESGECKOS

Absolutely wonderful few hours - expertly guided and organised by Les Geckos! We’ve been coming on holiday to the Côte d’Azur for 30 years and have never done this and I can say this is now the highlight of my summer! Stunning scenery, lots of adrenaline for the teenagers and more attention and help for the slightly less adventurous in our group! Highly recommend this experience.
