Never too old to try new things. - Rayno and Ollie were fantastic guides. This was our first canyoning experience and the boys made us feel comfortable at every obstacle. The check in process was seamless and getting fitted for all the gear was very easy. Rayno took one look at us and fitted the wetsuits perfectly. The van ride to the canyon was full of great conversations getting to know everyone. We arrived at the pasture to get changed into our gear and then jumped back in the van for the short ride to the entrance to the canyon. We repelled down a gnarly wall with Rayno on the safety ropes and into the refreshing river water. We jumped off of waterfalls, slid down natural waterslides and even zip lined into a pool. Ollie was the work horse on this adventure and he did the job well!!! I would recommend this to anyone who is up for adventure and a new experience!! Prince and Poppy

Cool tour with lots of fun - Very cool tour, was fun! The two tour guides (forgot Matthias and middle name unfortunately) were great, took their time, explained everything excellently and are passionate about it. Abseiling took over, but was a great experience. Anytime again!

Fantastic adventure - Canyoning was an epic adventure for my family of four! We had a blast & stayed warm due to the wetsuits, boots, jackets etc. we were covered from head to toe! Only part that got cold were our hands. It was a beautiful, unique experience that felt so authentic not many made or comercial. We really enjoyed the lunch outside afterwards with fresh veggies, cheese & homemade bread sandwiches. We felt very safe with Outdoor & the crew. Definitely a top notch company.

A part of Switzerland I never thought I'd see - This experience got my heart racing. It's a challenging yet doable course that leaves you feeling accomplished (as well as exhausted) Allan and Martin were our guides, and they were stellar, keeping us safe but also making sure everyone had fun. Plenty of Jumps, slides, and drops into water. 10/10 would do again

Amazing Experience! - Had an awesome time canyoning through Grimsel! This was my first time canyoning and I can’t wait to do more. Andi was a great guide, felt safe the whole time and he made it a fun trip! The drive to Grimsel was beautiful and I loved hearing some facts and history about the surrounding areas as we drove to the canyon. The sandwich afterwards with local cheese really hit the spot too. An epic trip overall - thanks Andi!

Fun trip, cheap company - We really enjoyed the trip and highly recommend it for action adventure seekers. Cliff repelling, jumping off canyon walls and into natural water slides, and much more. Scary but fun. However, for $224 per person, I frankly find it insulting that despite taking plenty of pictures and video of the trip for us, they won’t provide even a single photo of us during the trip (only one photo after the trip on dry land) unless we pay extra. Feels really cheap and taking advantage of its customers. If you don’t care about having any photo memories to take home then go for it.

Ill-fitting equipment and rude guide made for a dangerous experience - Once our gear was on we were told “it will loosen up in the water.” I am a 54 year old woman in decent shape, been canyoning in 2 other countries, love an adrenaline building activity, and am 5’ 5” and overweight (size 12-14 in the US). The wet suit handed to me and not tried on until we were on site (their policy) was too long and way too tight. While I was able to get it on, I lost mobility in my arms (they did not rest at my side but rather out at my sides, and legs. This resulted in my inability to move appropriately through the course. The first indication of trouble was after a jump when the extra wetsuit material on my calves and ankles caused my feet to float making it difficult to find my footing. Similarly a loose fitting life jacket was riding high on my neck and face causing difficulty and awkwardness. Next was a repel in which we were specifically told not to hold on so as to avoid our hands coming between the rope and rock, I was unable to hold a sitting position and rather was lowered like a rag doll or beetle on its back. This should have triggered the instructor to question whether my harness was on correctly or at least to be checked before the zip line. At the zip line, you are told to hold a rope with both hands and then to LET GO when yelled to. I did exactly as told but this time, because my harness was apparently riding too low on my hips, the pull on my hips up made it impossible to stay upright and I fell 20 feet hitting the water flat on my back. The image of my falling is now a nightmare for my children. It was at this point that Ricardo began to make me feel like I was doing something wrong. At a next element, Ricardo helps to push you through the air, over a waterfall, onto a sliding rock. Seemed fine had I not just whacked my back. I opted for an easier route but needed lots of help because I could not lift my legs in the suit. Nearing the end, we had to scoot under a rope and then slowly lower ourselves down a slide to a stop and jump off a ledge. I was not able to stop myself largely because of the immobility of bending my legs and went over dropping the 5-6 feet with momentum. It was here that I broke my finger. I had one more fall before getting out where we were reunited by our clothes. It was here that my son twice was electrocuted my the fence right next to us and between us and the van before Jan said it was electrified. Canyoning is risky, I get that. Ricardo was rude, made me feel as though I was in error, and seemed overly frustrated to have me on the trip. There were a total of 12 people with Ricardo and Jan. Ricardo gave all the instruction over the sound of the rushing canyon. My family was in the back and struggled to always hear. When I said to him that I didn’t hear the instruction, his answer was I should listen. I restated my comment asking him to repeat the instruction but already I was taking too much time again. Ricardo stated he would call the day after to check on my finger. He did not. We were also never offered photos or videos of the day. In conclusion, I blame the equipment for the struggles of the day that were in fact dangerous. I would not return on any excursion with Ricardo.
