Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Reviewing: Extreme canyoning with Rachel
Absoluterly brilliant day out.
The route builds up over several jump setpieces, gradually getting higher.
The highest of which has several levels which are all optional if you are nervous. Rachel's instruction was clear and helped reassure the more nervy people in the group.
Group sizes were kept reasonable and seperate parties were kept apart where possible.
One side note that they have no control over due to the land owner - parking is VERY limited. If you can reduce the cars your party arrives in (COVID restriction permitting) I'd highly recommend doing so.
Will definitely be back on another experience if we have the time back in North Wales!

We had a wonderful time canyoning with our 2 children aged 10 & 12 in glorious surroundings. I was completely out of my comfort zone but the professionalism and encouragement of George and Sarah gave me the confidence to complete it. There was a good mix and number of activities, some more challenging than others. We felt they packed just the right amount in and thought it was good value for money. I would thoroughly recommend it and we are looking forward to coming back again.

'This is one of the best days of my life' yelled my 8 year old daughter during our canyoning adventure and it's how she has excitedly described it to everyone since!
Five of us (inc 3 kids age 7,8 and 13) went on our morning adventure through the gorge with George and Sparky the dog and we couldn't have done anything with that time which would have been any more valuable. We came out of it with a great sense of achievement, the kids were so proud of themselves, we created some amazing shared memories and above all we had so much fun.
The trip itself was incredibly well organised and George our guide was insanely awesome. Despite the nature of our trip we felt comfortable the whole time as it was clear that our safety was paramount. George also instilled us with confidence as he demonstrated professionalism, knowledge and consideration. He was also very amiable and having him as our guide was an absolute pleasure.
Our trip to Wales was very last minute and I had little time to organise activities. These guys went above and beyond to make it possible for us to undertake this adventure at such short notice. Something I am exceptionally appreciative of.
I was initially trepidatious about doing something like canyoning, I'm not massively outdoorsy and some of the kids were little but together we decided to go for it and we had THE BEST time.
I can't recommend Snodonia Adventure Activities highly enough. Thank you guys.

George and Rachel were great instructors and we all had an exhilarating and fun morning.
George was very responsive on emails in advance and the whole event was well organised.
We were a mix of teenagers and 2 x 50 year olds - really was great fun. We would highly recommend - definitely if you are fit and brave!!!

George and Rachel have guided me and my friends down the canyon many times in recent years, I always go canyoning with them when in the area. On this occasion the water levels in the canyon were unprecedented due to heavy rainfall causing localised flooding and the dam feeding the canyon overflowing days before our visit. Fortunately, the water levels dropped just low enough for us to access parts of the upper canyon safely, but unfortunately not the lower canyon. George guided a small group of us with prior experience through what was my favourite trip yet, despite much of the canyon being off limits. I couldn’t recommend these guys high enough, no one knows this canyon better or is more personable in the delivery of what is truly an unforgettable experience that will keep you coming back!

We did the cayoning with George over the bank holiday. The weather had been very bad the week before and the river was extremely high so there was a chance the trip would be cancelled but George took us on a varied route of the river and it was awesome. George made us feel safe when the river was extremely fast and dangerous in places, and although we couldn't do the whole route we still had a lot of fun and were very happy with the experience. George clearly knows his stuff and couldn't recommend more.
Will be back!

Fantastic day out on our first canyoning trip would definitely recommend the Xtreme Canyoning for those thrillseekers! The jumps towards the end of the trip get the adrenaline going but these are optional. George and Rachel were great at guiding us through the canyon safely and were both extremely knowledgeable of the area. All in all we had an amazing day out and will be looking to do canyoning again soon in the near future.

Myself and my 11 year old son went extreme canyoning today with Snowdonia Adventure Activities and I can’t recommend it highly enough. We were very uncertain what to expect but the whole experience was fantastic, infact one of if not THE BEST activity I’ve ever done. Rachel instructed and supervised us down the route and couldn’t have been any better . A very skilled , knowledgeable and lovely lady made us feel that we were in very safe hands.
Climbing , abseiling, jumping (from height ) , sliding off waterfalls and down slopes. AMAZING!!
It was very rainy but to be honest made NO difference whatsoever and didn’t feel the cold at all.
Great people, great price and a very memorable experience. I strongly recommend and will be back to do it again!! Thank you!!!

George and Rachel took my girlfirend and I out in a group canyoning and we would fully recommend to ANYONE looking to enjoy a memorable experience. In a group diverse in both age and ability, they both accommodated for every individual and still managed to take some photos along the canyon and direct spectating relatives to good lookout points.
The activity as a whole had plenty variety in terms of slides, jumps and rambles and holds advantage being set within beautiful scenery which the guides seemed clued up on too!
Thank you for a fantastic trip, we'd love to come again 😊

We recently took part in the canyoning for a stag weekend event, and we all had a great time. A group in our mid-30's, of mixed general fitness, and limited previous experience, our two guides were brilliant at easing us in, whilst also building our confidence. If you are looking for something different whilst visiting this part of Wales, I couldn't recommend Snowdonia Adventure Activities more highly.

Hi during the extreme Canyoning will there be the ability to have photos taken or are we allowed to take suitably waterproof cameras with us?
Written 25 August 2020
We try and bring a camera whenever we can although this is not part of the service and our main priority is running the trip! People are more than welcome to bring their own cameras

What type of clothes should we wear for the canyon extreme activity??

Youll need swimwear, some shoes (trainers/walking boots) and ideally some old loose fitting shorts to go over your wetsuit and harness. Ideally if you have one, a synthetic sports top will help keep you warm if its spring/autumn!

Is there certain weight or size restrictions?

Hi Rhys, it depends on the activity (they are generally quite physical so some level of fitness usually helps). For canyoning and rock climbing we need to fit a harness. The harnesses fit up to a 59" waist (we have had plenty of happy customers that weigh around 100kg+) which is usually alright for most participants but if you drop us an email with your requirements I'm sure we can help. Kind regards, George

The minimum age for most activities is 4 years. We usually say 11+ for the canyoning but when the water levels are low we've taken children as young as 6. If you drop us an email we would be happy to answer any questions, otherwise have a look on our website. Kind regards, George
