What a great day! Everything was awesome – the nature, the absailing and of course Cam from AWOL. You always feel save and in good hands. I would always do it again. Don´t miss it!!!!!

Javier with AWOL picked us all up with no problems from Sky Tower at the time they said they would be there. There were only three of us so the group bonded quickly. After a 45 minute drive out to Piha, we got our canyoning gear from the shop then headed out to the entrance of the canyon. Javier gave... More

My friend and I took the full day trip to Piha from Auckland. It was amazing. I felt completely safe with the tour guide and equipment. I was extremely nervous about abseiling down the last cliff which was 135 ft high. Our tour guide allowed me to go tandem with him so i didnt miss out on the opportunity. I... More

Both my girlfriend and I have experience in canyoning and were pretty stoked to hear about AWOL while in Auckland; we decided to book the full day Piha canyon trip and it was the highlight of our short holidays in the North Island! A very scenic drive up to the West Coast, about 45 minutes away from the hustle and... More
