Top of our list - great guide, local company, fun experiences - We have done many canyoning and via verrata activities before but this one is on top of our list. This was not only because of a beautiful scenary, but also due to an amazing guide Harry. He is very knowledgeable and takes time to explain everything, we felt very safe. He is also very personable and we had many great chats on the way up the canyon and rocks. We also liked that he was a local guide, it's his family business and him and his family add many small touches that makes the experience better. Canyon that Harry selected for us Rio Verde had a beautiful, crystal clear water, great jumps, slides, abseils. And it was so peaceful. 100% recommendation from us.

Very nice family activity - Early in the morning we were picked up in Granada by Ari and Jakub, after which it was an hour's drive to Zafarraya, where the mountain to be climbed is located. Once there we were given equipment and instructions. You have two carabiners and one of them is always attached so you are always safe. The nice thing about this mountain are the different parts such as three zip lines, a high staircase and a tibetan bridge. For beginners like us it is very doable and yet challenging. The mountain has different routes, so if you find something too scary, another route is possible. Me and my two kids (18 and 21 years old) were the only ones there, which made it extra special. Ari and Jakub made us feel safe and especially Jakub showed his joy in climbing, which made the experience even more enjoyable. I had booked the climb for August and was afraid that it would be too hot, but luckily the temperature was very nice, partly because the climb is on the shady side of the mountain. After the climb we could enjoy the beautiful view. After the walk down we had an extensive lunch together with Ari and Jakub. The chicken burger was tasty. Ari and Jakub also took pictures so that we can show our tough climb to others can show. I can recommend this activity to everyone.

A must-do tour in southern Spain! - This tour was a blast! It was only me and the two tour guides Jakub and Ari so it felt like a VIP tour. The guides themselves and the via ferrata were a lot of fun. It’s not too difficult of a route (metal ladder holds and chains for grabbing for most of the climbing) but if you have some climbing experience you can make it more challenging by just using the crag more for hand grips. There’s a big emphasis on safety as you’re always connected to a wire during the vertical climbs. I never felt at risk. The activities (like the ziplines and especially the pendulum) were fun! The ziplines are short so they don’t really compare to a dedicated zipline tour, but as part of the via ferrata they definitely add to the experience. I got some light snacks during the tour, plenty of water, and we ended it with a nice homemade lunch. I also want to point out that you spend a bunch of time in the shade, which is so nice in the hot summer months. 5 out of 5, I would definitely recommend this tour 👍
