Activity Description

Our AfriCanyon river adventure starts with registration, getting your wetsuit, kit and a quick briefing at basecamp. We then transfer you to the river entry point, a short drive in our vehicle and within minutes you are on your way. A brilliant combination of fun and adventure in the great outdoors!

Run the river with AfriCanyon, navigate through the river shallows, swim through natural tannin coloured fresh-water mountain pools, maneuver down water slides and abseil waterfalls as you dip down into the river gorge.

First timer, novice or seasoned at canyoning we’ve got your back. Under our professional guidance, using the latest spec adventure equipment your qualified guide ensures a kloofing adventure you simply can’t get enough of.

In fact we know you’re likely to want to do it again and again!

Customer Reviews

This was by far the best bucket list adventures ever! Our tour guides was of top notch! Their knowledge was exceptional about the area and tour itself. They were also super entertaining and extremely helpful! - Ra'eesah Sahib


A really good trip. Staff and guides were extremely friendly and customer oriented. Bookings were made flexible (due to illness) in order to allow all family members to take part at the trip at a later date. Taking fotos and videos during trip by guides was really good. Highly recommended to anyone! - Thomas Schmeding


What an incredible experience. The feedback that has been received from the students is that it was the best outing that they have ever had. The dedication and professionalism of all the guides have to be commended. One could clearly see that they all have a passion for what they do. Not only did they entertain the students but their attention to detail and "safety comes first" ensured that those students that felt a little apprehensive forgot about all their fears and just enjoyed themselves. I am confident that they will all tell their friends and family about the amazing experience that they had. We as a school will most definitely make this a permanent outing for our Grade 10 students. Africanyon is simply the best. - Greenwood Bay College PO_#_ADA_GBCPO002293


It was a great adventure, and the Guide was very professionell, thank you very mutch! - Yvonne


This was crazy fun and adventurous few hours! The guides (Warren and Tebz) were not only knowledgeable and helpful but super fun and engaging making the whole trip a joy. You get to see scenery you'd never see from a typical hike. My 8 year old son had the best time ever and my husband and I had a blast acting like kids cannonballing off the rocks into the river. Our 10 year old daughter was not as keen and a bit nervous but Warren and Tebz were so patient and encouraging. HIGHLY recommend this tour for anyone. - Missi Firth
