Incredible experience full of sensations in a splendid setting. Guided by Nico, he knew how to delight both young and old. Our teens had a fun and unforgettable time! Thank youuu
Great experience at High Jabron! I tried the discovery canyoning in the Verdon gorges (High Jabron canyon) with Nicolas as my instructor, and it was truly top-notch. Both professional, reassuring, and super nice, he made the outing memorable. Additionally, he photographs the course with the participants! Ideal for discovering the activity with complete confidence. I recommend it wholeheartedly! Thank you for this great moment.
Fantastic experience! Nico is a kind, helpful person who is able to make everyone feel at ease. I suffer from aquaphobia and also have issues with vertigo, but thanks to him, I was able to do almost everything and have a lot of fun. We had a great time and I absolutely recommend him to anyone who wants to try canyoning safely and with a smile! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
an unforgettable canyoning experience. Bravo Lola for this perfect organization that allows us to fully enjoy the moment. Thank you Nicolas for your professionalism in guiding and for these magnificent photos. See you soon for new adventures.
Great experience for my EVG supervised by Nico, he is attentive and very professional. It helps people who are a little chilly and makes people proud to have accomplished this breathtaking experience.
An excellent experience with Nicolas and his team. Security, good humor, excellent supervision. We will do it again next year.
An unforgettable canyoning trip! We had a great time with family, and we highly recommend this experience. The guide was both very friendly and attentive, which made the adventure even more enjoyable. He took the time to reassure our son and accompany him in his apprehensions, which allowed us all to fully enjoy the activity. A perfect mix of adrenaline, security and good humor. Thanks again!
Very smooth communication and good explanation of the canyoning of Lola. Also good caring guide Nicolas in saint Aubain
A fantastic experience. We chose the short tour at Haut Jabron and enjoyed every second. The tour was worth every penny. Nico is a great guide who made us laugh time and time again. We stayed with the family, with three children (12, 14 and 16) there. You need a little courage. Nico has not caused the slightest fear through his unique way. We will not forget this day. Many thanks also to Lola for the excellent organization.
Super initiation canyoning in the Upper Jabron with our children aged 10 and 12...jumps, slides, rappelling in a splendid canyon. Supervision at the top by Nicolas and Clovis who are very pleasant and reassuring. Welcoming and top organization by Lola also very nice. Thanks to you.
SUBLIME 🤩 AT ALL LEVELS 😃 A first phone contact with Lola at the top 🥰 Sun in the voice, benevolence, care to give us all the info Top instructors, PROS, patients with the most "fearful", who push us to surpass ourselves without forcing, with respect and benevolence 🥰 Our youngest of 9 years could do all the jumps, rappel,.. thanks to Nicolas and Alia 🥰 The Haut Jabron, 1st SUBLIME AND COMPLETE family canyoning, a SUPERB 1ST EXPERIENCE 🤩
Canyoning Le Riolan with Nicolas We were in a relationship with our 15 year old daughter and a couple (very nice by the way) were with us. For the three of us it was our big first!! And what a first!! From the moment of booking we are taken care of with Lola, who is very friendly and very professional, and even goes so far as to prepare the itinerary of the meeting place! We feasted, the site is beautiful, the water is beautiful with an ideal temperature Refreshment, jumps, slides, beauty of landscapes, laughter in short everything is there!! Special mention for Nicolas our guide who knew how to reassure us and put us in confidence on some impressive spots (adrenaline guaranteed)!! We will repeat the experience for sure!!

We had such a wonderful experience with O’limpede. Lola was so helpful with the planning and coordination, writing and calling us in advance. Our guide Nicholas was experienced, safety conscious and made our adventure super fun! We would strongly recommend this activity- it was so varied- with via Ferrata, a zip line, a Tarzan swing, a drop and abseiling! We couldn’t think of a better way to spend our day at the gorgeous Verdon Gorge!
An experience equal to our guide: EXTRA! Nicolas is a attentive and caring guide, who also has a lot to teach you about fauna, flora and good local tips! Thank you for this moment 👍
