Over the top adventure for every Peter Parker or Gwen Stacey fan - Dan our instructor/guide/inspirator was fantastic. His ability to educate and put at ease people of varying ages & nationalities was second to none. Introducing or reconnecting us to the most rewarding of adventures. Yes, the views, thrill & rewards are definately worth climbing a stair or two for. This is the best value for money experience in South east Queensland.

Thanks l for not dropping us, Kim! - My partner and I loved our experience. Kim was our abseiling instructor and he was very professional and charismatic. He explained everything clearly and calmly, and we both felt very safe. Super fun experience, great weather. 10/10 Kim, have the best time in Australia :)

Highly recommend - Such a thrill. Guide was committed to explaining things clearly, making good use of the time, keeping you safe, and making sure you have fun. Do have to climb a monumental set of stairs each time you want to head back down, so can be challenging if very hot out.

Definitely recommend! - We had a fantastic time. I was so excited to do it until we got up the top and the nerves kicked in, our instructor Ian was amazing and had he not been so patient and encouraging, I would not have been able to complete it. Can not recommend Ian highly enough. Thank you for a great afternoon!

Fun experience but need small groups - The instructor’s (Kim and Ian) were amazing and made you feel very comfortable and safe but having only 2 instructors for 16 people, including 2 children was too many people. It took a long time to get through everyone and we got told we would be able to go up and come down the cliff twice but with this amount of people we only got to go once and for the price you pay you definitely want to go more than just once. Would be much better if the group was half the size or there were more ropes and instructors.

Need more than once down the cliff - The instructors, especially Hunker, were amazing! Hunker calmed me down and really helped me feel OK with taking that first step off the cliff. Without her reassuring words, I would not have done this but I’m glad I did. The money spent on this activity should have included more than just once down the cliffs because that’s not enough for the money paid. They either need more instructors or reduce the number of people for each session. They also need to put a time limit on getting off the cliff. One very young girl took 30-45 minutes away from everyone else trying to get up the courage before she said she couldn’t do it. During that time, the others could have tried a second time down the cliffs.

Need more instructors or smaller groups - 1 instructor for 9 people, took over 90min before managed to get a turn. Too much standing around and waiting in the hot sun (no shade in area where we were based) Would be fine if groups were smaller (5max) or there were more ropes and instructors.
