Abseiling with Riverlife in Kangaroo point - The view descending the cliff was amazing. All the instructors were extremely professional, knowledgeable, friendly and patient. My first time abseiling and Hanka in particular made it something special to remember. I highly recommend abseiling with Riverlife

Great views, fun adventure - It was such fun and well organised. Thanks Ian, our guide. Thornton St wharf was not in operation. Use Holman St. Work out in your group how to get pics if you want them.

Fun new experience - I had a great time trying Abseiling for my first time. I found the instructor Lucca was really helpful with all the tips he had. I would recommend this as an activity because it a lot of fun. Even with a little fear of heights.

AWESOME!!! - Wow! Wow! Wow! Is this the craziest thing I’ve ever done? Sure! One of those! Any regrets? Absolutely none! My son and I spent a few days in Brisbane, and went on a lot of adventures, but abseiling the Kangaroo Point cliffs was definitely one of the most extreme and most memorable undertakings. LOL The cliffs are located along the Brisbane River in a stunning park full of exceptionally beautiful trees, flowers, and birds, so it was really breathtaking! Neither of us had ever done anything even remotely close to this, so I was a bit nervous, but our instructor, Matt, was super confident, very competent, and incredibly patient with us (well, mostly me 😊) He gave us a few tips and after a short introduction session, I was able to conquer my worries and fully experience the excitement of abseiling. I wish we had done rock climbing with Matt as well, but that’s next time for sure! If you want to add a bit of the adrenaline rush to your visit to wonderful Brisbane - abseiling the Kangaroo Point cliffs is definitely a must to do!

Awesome abseiling instructors - Kate and Jared - We booked the abseiling tour for a school trip and our instructors, Kate and Jared, were absolutely fantastic. I slipped and ended up upside down and Jared handled it calmly and professionally so that I felt calm enough to complete the activity. They were both also very calming and helpful with the students which we couldn’t appreciate it enough. 10/10 experience.

Hanka was an outstanding abseiling instructor for our session ❤ - A big thank you to Hanka from Riverlife who gave expert advice and encouragement to my daughter (15) trying abseiling for the first time. Hanka was very patient, and was very clear in her instructions, and we are grateful for her expertise!

Riverlife Abseiling - We had a great time abseiling with Riverlife. Ian, our instructor was great and made all the newbies feel at ease. The steps were a hard climb but the going down was fun! It would be nice if we could have at least 2 tries each as the first time people feel a bit apprehensive, but they get more confident the second time around. But overall, a great experience!

Scary but exciting experience - Such a great experience. This was a 50th birthday group effort. I was very scared but determined to overcome that. My 14 year old was without fear. Will our instructor made us all feel relaxed in the instructional part before we walked up to the top. Be warned lots of steps to get up to the top. We only had 5 in the whole group so it was great, time even allowed for 3 of them to do it twice. Once was more than enough for me to say I'd done it. Will was really good throughout the experience and helped to make us feel safe and gave clear instructions. Definitely a great experience and going off the top and taking those first few steps backwards is not something I'll forget in a hurry. Thanks Will.

Experience is needed!! - There were 15 of us in the group and we only had one opportunity to have an abseil down the cliff. For $75.00, I think that is a bit expensive. Also, I think their technique of having two people at the top, and no guide at the bottom is a safety issue and doesn’t support inexperience C limbers.
