Nettes Erlebnis

Positiv: 1. zwei sehr sehr nette Guides 2. tolle Atmosphäre 3. guter Service 4. gratis Fotos nach der Tour per E-Mail! (kenne ich sonst gar nicht von solchen Outdoor-Aktivitäten) 5. Für Anfänger bestimmt schöne Strecke 6. Gute Ausrüstung 7. Viel klettern und einige Rutschen Negativ: 1. Ein wenig kurz (1-1,5h) 2. Für Fortgeschrittene bzw. Leute mit vorheriger Canyoning-Erfahrung langweilig (kein einziger Sprung, meist nur knie- oder hüfthohes Wasser) 3. Recht teuer (trotz Rabatts), aber das sind alle Canyoning-Anbieter und -Touren
