My wife and I went on the full day canyoning experience with Cam as our guide and our day was amazing. Cam was very helpful and calm the whole day and always made us feel safe and relaxed. The canyon area is beautiful and was certainly an achievement abseiling the 50m drop being scared of heights! Would do this again in a heartbeat!!

Amy and Ewan did an excellent job guiding me through the amazing adventure. They were very patience and calm, and provided easy instructions that helped my nerves.I felt very safe and secure, while still getting that adrenaline rush. If I didn't have time constraints from the cruise ship, I would have signed up to do it again, and again. We repelled down 4 cliff sides into bodies of water, and did 2 jumps into water, 2 crawls over rocks and logs, and some hiking at the beginning and the end. It was extremely fun, and I want to do it all over again with my best friend.

I have visited Kitekite falls a million times having grown up out west, however viewing and experiencing the falls and surrounding nature through the form of abseiling/canyoning is something else. I booked the Full Day Canyoning tour as a surprise wedding anniversary adventure, we had an absolute amazing time and we're already planning on coming back to do a night-time canyoning trip sometime soon. Our guide Cam was awesome, explaining every step to us clearly and giving advice throughout our trip, as well as, providing us with good banter. Tania also gets a special mention for being amazing and organising a trip to happen on Labour weekend. Hands down, recommend this place to everyone. Can't wait to come back!

Great day out. Our guide created a safe and fun atmosphere from the get go. There was tons of amazing abseiling, vast view over native bush, a couple of rock jumps, a small eel and just the right amount of adrenaline. Thanks to Ewan and the team.

We had a great day out with Jade and Elise as our guides (and Amy too). There were 10 people in our group, but everyone was really well looked after although it did mean there were some long wait times. Even though I was feeling nervous, there was nothing to be scared about! The guides make sure you’re safe all the time by giving good instructions and excellent support through the abseiling. Loads of fun, I would recommend for a really fun day out!

Landed in NZ from the UK and 3 hours later we were in the safe hands of Elise ,ably assisted by Amy, climbing up to the top of the canyon.
Safety was always at the forefront but you had the definite Adrenalin hit satisfied. Abseiling down a waterfall and leaping off rock ledges with a lunch stop you definitely could not walk too!! Great trip but you must be reasonably fit and not scared of heights then you’re in for a great treat !

We had an incredible experience with Cam and the crew. The canyon is truly majestic and the experience of being out in nature starts before you've even clipped on. Abseiling down the waterfall was magical and a chance to conquer my lifelong fear of heights. I felt safe at every stage and the experience suited every member of our group, whatever their age and ability. This is kiwi tourism at it's best.

We spent the day with AWOL Canyoning as part of a cruise excursion, and it will definitely be the most memorable outing of our vacation. Amy and Ewan were excellent guides, patient, funny, and very competent. I finished the day feeling as if I had not only challenged myself but also had an exciting, fun day in a gorgeous setting. I highly recommend AWOL for anyone looking for a bit of adventure!

This was a fantastic experience. Very safety conscious and I felt completely secure during the trip. It was evident guide Ewen had assessed both our capabilities and the environment of the day. I had moments of being very nervous but was so well supported to complete this adventure, I feel I really accomplished something way out of my comfort zone. Stunning nature at its best. Some fitness and flexibility would be beneficial to the enjoyment of the day. Highly recommended, I will come back again ! Thank you Ewen, your guiding put me at ease to complete this personal challenge!

We did a half day trip with our 3 children (7,10,12 yrs). We had a great time, kids had a lot of fun! For adults only I think the full day experience would be greater. Cam is a great guide!
