Guides such as Luka, Elizabeth, Anton, and Marco lead in Croatian and English.

“It needs to be more accurately described as it is extremely difficult for beginners and most people might not expect how much strength and fitness is actually involved. Fear of heights or claustrophobia? Might want to avoid this... There is a lot of hard climbs, both up and down and it is quite physical even before one reaches the water. It is an amazing experience though with a magnificent canyon, breathtaking views, well worth the money and led by a very competent and friendly team. We had an amazing time even if the legs were quite tired the next day! Keep it in mind when planning your week out, a…”

Join Iris Adventures for a beginner-friendly Cetina River canyoning trip from Split or Zadvarje. You’ll hike, swim, slide, rappel, and optionally jump from rocks while guides such as Antonia and Boris explain each step. Equipment is provided, but bring breakfast, snacks, firm sports shoes, a towel, and a dry shirt.

“It was relly good. I recommend this adventure to other travellers. The thing I like most of all is that the tour considers different levels of physical abilities. For instance, if you're not going to jump from the 5-meter rock, you can walk around. Do not forget to prepare a towel, an extra t-shirt, and sneakers in addition to your flip-flops. In case you want to film the trip, you need a GoPro camera or something waterproof. Be ready, the whole tour will take about 7 hours.”

“It was my first time canyoning and it was such a nice experience. We were a group of 9 people and Ivan (our amazing guide) took great care of us. We had so much fun exploring the canyon together and he tries to go in-between other companies so you have the canyon to yourself most of the time. We took lots of pictures and he made sure that we had a great time. Everytime he had to prepare something (like getting all the stuff and ropes back after the "abseiling" from extreme canyoning) he let us have free time so we could do jumps, take pictures with his phone ...,…”
