Fantastic staff! Very happy feel good factor from them. Excellent training skills , especially Emz who helped us so much with everything. The course was just tough enough to push us out of our comfort zones but also extremely enjoyable leaving us with a fulfilling and exhilarating feeling. We definitely felt the afterglow. Very happy customers!

Fantastic experience! I went with my 10-year-old son and his friend, and while it was definitely a challenge for them, it gave them an amazing sense of achievement and a real boost to their confidence. I thoroughly enjoyed it too and would happily do it again — we had hours of fun in a beautiful setting.
