This was an amazing experience! Due to the weather, our original canyon trip had to be cancelled and Aiden went above and beyond to ensure that we had a phenomenal day.
We spent the day abseiling and rock climbing with the hands down best tour guide, Brian. Thank you Brian for your patience and constant reassurance. With your guidance, we went above and beyond what we thought was possible and faced some really big fears.
We will be booking again!

Absolutely brilliant morning spent with Brian, on a very blustery wet blue Mountains day. Just enough adventure, and felt very safe and emotionally supported during the entire process! Had a ball! Thank you Brian’ Bethany

Hi 50kath, Thanks for the review. Perhaps if you come out again you might like to do a canyon with us. Empress canyon has a 30 metre waterfall abseil!
All the best

I am so glad I did this! It was truly an amazing time! The staff was great. It was a little tricky to find, and when I went into the building, the door was closed (they were getting things ready), but aside from that, no issues once so ever. They were safe but funny. The staff has a good time with each other, so you know they enjoy what they do, but who wouldn’t. The canyon was beautiful. I was so bummed about the battery in my go pro dying. I haven’t looked at the footage, so I hope I was able to catch some of the beauty. Luckily, others had phones, so I can share the experience visually with people. I am a little bruised up, but I’m not the most graceful person. You have to try this if you like an adventure!

Visiting Australia for the first time and booked a full day of climbing. Brian was our guide and he was fantastic! Very personable and knowledgeable with respectable attention to safety. He was flexible to adjust the day to our hopes, dreams, and abilities. Overall fantastic time. Highly recommend! Would use their services again!

Amazing adventure with Ben and Kate !!
They are so kind and caring, take the time to reassure us and we spend an nice day.
It was so beautiful and it gives a huge dose of adrenaline. The descent of the waterfall at the end is the climax of the day.
Thanks again to ours crews for this incredible day and if you need to chose a company for your canyoning and abseiling, go for High and Wild directly !

We had an amazing half day of abseiling with Brian. The experience was very professionally managed and we felt safe at all times even when teetering over the cliff faces. We had no previous abseiling experience and came away feeling confident and accomplished. The views were absolutely stunning. A must-do when visiting the Blue Mountains.

Fantastic beginner abseiling tour in the stunning Blue Mountains. Our guide, Zol was very experienced and friendly, with high safety standards. We built up confidence across 3 different heights- 5m, 15m and 30m. Super fun!

We had a great time at the Juggler's Canyon. Our amazing guide, Zol, was patient and reassuring, guiding us through the entire trek and abseiling experience. We had a group of six during the abseiling session in the morning, then a delicious lunch with a group of four for canyoning in the afternoon. The sights were beautiful, and the abseiling experience was extremely fun too. I would highly recommend it to all. Thanks, Zol and team!

Lovely morning abseiling with Brian.
The surroundings are breath-taking and there is no better way to see them than hanging off of a cliff!
Brian is an expert guide and highly diligent with safety.
We had a small group and so were able to cram in a few 18ms and turns on the 30m.
Would recommend.

I went on the bush survival course this weekend with Dylan and Brian as our guides. It was the middle of winter and we had light rain all weekend, but despite the conditions, I had the best time. It is possible to make a fire even in the rain. We were taught how to safety collect water, make a fire, build a shelter and basic navigation. The navigation exercise was so fun. Dylan and Brian are the best guides - Dylan is so practical and hands on and made fire starting by rubbing two sticks together look so easy!! My hands are still bruised from trying. Brian has some depth of technical knowledge and was able to answer any question we had. Loved this group and plan to return for some more navigation training.

Started out the morning abseiling down some beautiful spots to help us feel comfortable and learn the ropes. Then enjoyed an incredibly delicious lunch before heading into the canyon. The trek through the canyon was both challenging (and cold) but very rewarding. Most of our group had their own moment where they struggled but our wonderful guide Zol was patient and kind and helped us overcome our fears. Ending with possibly the least graceful descent down the waterfall for me and a textbook perfect descent from my partner then a nice steep hike back out.
To say I was pushed out of my comfort zone is an understatement but it was such an incredible experience.
I cannot thank Zol enough for his amazing guidance making us feel safe and helping us navigate each part of the day.
I recommend High and Wild to anyone looking for an adventure and challenge!

The guides were extremely safety focused but still kept it light hearted enough that we didn't feel overwhelmed.
The experience itself was fantastic and such a rush. Moments of panic but trusting these guys knew what they were doing. So glad we did this.
Tha k you miles and Zoltan for looking after us and giving us this experience!

We had an incredible experience canyoning and abseiling with high and wild. The guides made everyone feel safe and comfortable, and their knowledge about wildlife and fauna was incredible.
It is a must do in the Blue Mountains! Empress falls and canyons were incredible. I will certainly be back for more!

The group and our guides Luke and Zoltan was great and had a very good spirit.
Due to the rain we got a lot of water in the canyon which I believe only made our experience better!
The canyon and rainforest was beautiful.
The waterfall was poring to heavily for us beginners to abseil down so we abseiled beside the waterfall. Safety first!
All in all, an amazing experience and I cannot wait to go canyoning again.

Fantastic people. Brian was an exceptional guide and a lot of fun to hang with. I was lucky when I booked the combined abseiling and canyoning in that no one else had booked the second half, and I ended up with a private experience. Not only that, we had the canyon to ourselves as well.
Not to be missed if you’re in Katoomba!

It was one of the greatest challenges I had. I'm so glad that I could do it with you guys. I'm afraid of heights, so I pick up the abseiling as a personal challenge. Tim and Zoltan were legends! Super helpful and patient, I had an amazing time in the morning. At the afternoon with the Canyoning I felt so alive and glad that I could accomplish that and face my fear! The Abseiling at the waterfall is stunning! I felt in love with that canyon and with the Blue Mountains there! Really, thank you for everything!

Myself and a friend went to the 2 Day Bush Survival Course in September 2023. Our guides were Dylan, Miles and Ben and together they had a vast amount of knowledge, experience and amazing stories to tell, and our group was made of really good people. I especially valued how the guides were also learning from each other and asking questions less experienced people wouldnt think to ask. The course was set out and planned really well too. I never felt rushed or bored between activities, and at the same time I didn't feel overwhelmed or underwhelmed with the things we learned. I definitively feel more confident going into the bush than I did before. Highly recommend for anyone who enjoys camping, hiking or wants to try something different.

If you're debating on whether to do this tour or the half day abseiling adventure, I highly recommend this one since you'll be able to abseil in Juggler Canyon with the beautiful forest landscape.
