Very fun, some jumps are a little bit scary but the guides help you through it and they give you an exciting rush.

Thé activity was just amazing, with 3 or 4 jumps in the water from various heights (2..4..7 m). The biggest one I passed because I was too scared and the guide was very supportive and he came with me to join the group on the adventure. The guides are very attentive to everyone and he explains multiple times what to do. The info for how to get there was correct and clear. If you want to test your scare limits, I RECOMMEND 1000%
