Worldwide · CANYONING TOURS
A good canyon gives you all of it in one morning: a rappel, a slide, a jump and a pool to float in afterwards. These 15 are the guided descents worth planning a trip around, with the price a head, the time in the water and the level each one asks of you.

Even though it was only a short time viewing the whale sharks, the tour guides took full advantage of the time we had and became our personal photographer/videographer with the GoPro we rented (which was very affordable!). It was a shame that Kawasan falls was unavailable due to natural circumstances and we ordered the zip line which we couldn't do, but the alternative falls we went to (Inambakan Falls) was just as beautiful! The climb up was steep but our allocated tour guides were so helpful and patient! Could not recommend this activity enough and would happily go back and relive the experience again! Hopefully this…”
Choose the water first: river gorge, sea cliff or desert slot.
