We went with a group of friends and had a blast. Richard was a perfect guide -- funny, kind, adventurous, and calming! Would love to go back again.

Our family of 5 did the Canyoneering Experience out of Asheville, NC. It was a fantastic waterfall rappel. Challenging for sure, but also so exhilarating! We brought the oldest people on the trip 45 and 46 and also the youngest 17,15,13. We all LOVED it! Thank you Alex and Avani for a great experience.
