★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 409 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $97Our pick

Review of Bruar Falls canyoning in Scotland, with jumps, slides, waterfall abseils, gear, guides, price, safety, and booking tips.

“Amelia was super dope! She was personable, kind, encouraging, and honestly her excitement to teach how to properly do canyoning is what helped me get through my hesitation to make the jumps because I was a little nervous lol. I’d encourage anyone thinking about doing this to hit the reserve button asap no rocky. This team is professional, compassionate to situations (I was late because the train got cancelled), and kind in general. DO THIS ADVENTURE!”

Review of Perthshire river tubing with Nae Limits, covering routes, safety, price, age rules, gear, scenery, and practical tips.

“We signed up to do White water tubing which was advertised as one of the more extreme trips and not for the faint hearted. We didn't find it particularly extreme, however it was still really enjoyable and we ended up having such a laugh with the group. The instructor Jack was lovely; he explained clearly what to do on each rapid and was really supportive towards those that were a little less confident.”
