Outstanding!!! - We had an outstanding experience and would love to return again. Our guide and photographer were fantastic. They were prepared, knowledgeable, and a pleasure with whom to spend time. We would absolutely recommend their outfit 100%. They are listed as one of the approved guides by the American Canyoneering Association and that means a lot. Whether you have experience or not, use these guys! You will have a blast!

Best adventure in Canada!!!! - The best canyoning trip in Canada. Highly recommend booking with Banff Canyoning. The guides are world class and the canyons are too. We did the Helicopter trip and also the Cline river adventure the next day. It was a weekend of non stop excitement.

A great tour with an amazing guide that is passionate about the sport! - My wife and I got Zach as our guide and we couldnt have asked for a better person! He was great with explaining, teaching, and answering any questions we had. I liked getting to understand some of the rope systems he used and he was awesome letting me ask and learn about it all! He is fun and great to talk to and has a good sense of humor. Felt like talking to an old friend! You can truly tell he is doing what he loves and you can feel the passion he has for it! His love for the sport is infectious and makes the experience that much for fun and exciting. It truly makes the trip that much better having someone that can truly enjoy every second hes out there as your guide. As for the actual canyoning itself it was a great introduction and even with my wife being a bit unsure at first, we are already talking about doing the heli trip in the future! Felt comfortable and safe the whole time.
