Brilliant, awesome, loved it! So terrific to have a guide (Neil) with such awesome enthusiasm. He provides all your gear, with plenty of sizes to choose from so you get a good fit. Hes great with being relaxed while still sticking to the rules to provide maximum safety. Knowing that your guide knows every nook and cranny of the canyon... More

Our group were on a cruise and did the Blue Canyon tour while in Auckland. A few days earlier we had all done the Sydney Bridge climb. That was a lot easier but this was way more fun. Neil and his crew did an excellent job in getting us equipped and on our way. It is an exhausting day and... More

I went on the tour to the Sleeping God Canyon in Thames. It was an amazing day with lots of abseiling, some great jumps, and good variety. The scenery was fantastic. The guides were enjoyable and funny, yet also kept our safety as the top priority. It definitely is not a tour for the faint of heart or people who... More

Canyonz canyoning trip was by far the highlight of my trip. Neil and Alyse were great instructors and worked with us to make sure we had a good time. I rarely write reviews for things like this but I had such a great time I decided that I would do right by them and write something good. You do need... More

I posted the pictures on FB and EVERYONE loved it. Yes, you need to be in good condition and not afraid to get a couple of scratches, that's what... More

I’ve never actually written a review before but I really feel very strongly about this trip. Although the actual trip was immense and the setting itself was top notch the actual guides and organisation was terrible. Our tour started late, we were waiting around for ages for the right equipment to arrive and when it did the tour operators were... More

I would like to clarify things here as I only see good reviews on Canyonz whereas people need to be carefull when selecting them. I did the Sleeping God Canyon, which is rated 10/10 on the Adventure scale, in Feb 2012. I'm slightly overweighted and had to wear a wetsuit that was too small. The provide you with all the... More

I went with my partner and 2 other friends and it was the best fun!!! The guides where great, lunch was great and the waterfalls did not let us down!!! Abseiling was so much fun and so was jumping off the rocks down to the large pool of water! The only thing I can say is that it was hard... More
