By FAR the coolest activity on the island! - The advanced canyoning tour was exceptional. By far the most exciting thing I have done in Dominica.
The crew, Burani, jeffry and Mandy where very professional and coached us excellently throughout the entire experience.
Very gratefull for this once in a life time experience!
Cheers! P.

Must do in Dominica - quintessential - Hands down some of the best fun I’ve had on any trip. The incredible beauty of Dominica, the canyons and all the surrounding villages was matched only by the staff at extreme dominica! They are so professional, friendly and helpful. It was so great we went back the next day for more!!!!!!!
Akil, Junior and Burani felt more like family than guides. What a way to see the heart of Dominica!!

Exhilarating, Mesmerizing, Stunning. BEST ADVENTURE EVER! Top of Bucket list #1 - Was on a 2 week Caribbean cruise and had a stop at Dominica. Am a huge fan of Pirates of the Caribbean and wanted to do a river tour of the Indian River. However, i decided against all that and booked the canyoning experience with Extreme Dominica. The reviews says it all in that almost all of them have given a 5* rating. They are definitely not wrong. I had booked the normal canyoning experience, but then decided to upgrade and purchased the advanced canyoning after looking at the youtube videos.
I am a family of 4 with 2 kids - 16 and 12. I was picked up at around 08:30 from the cruise port. We drove to their centre. Changed into our gear, had some safety briefings and then drove off to the first rappling point. Started our first rapple at about 10 and finished at around 5. Dropped off at the cruise port around 5:30.
We were trekking through gorges, rappling down, rappling sideways, jumping off cliffs, squeezing through narrow rocks. It was quite intense. Half way through we stopped for food where the normal canyoning experience stops and we return. My 12 year old returned to base while we continued on to do the advanced. It is really exhausting and tiring, but worth every minute and penny of time spent. Advanced was like 10x of the normal with more jumps, rapples. At one point, we go underwater and come out the other side of a hole in the cave. Words cannot describe the experience. We reached the final spot where we rappelled down the whole Trafalgar Falls.
The falls is 250 feet high and we rappelled down from the top to the bottom. It gets really exhausting as you have to rappel a wet rope. It was also swaying sideways and had to stop midway multiple times to catch my breath. After I came down, I almost collapsed as I had no energy left. It was by far the best experience of my whole life EVER. This should definitely be on the bucket list of almost everyone who likes adventure.
Our guides were Berani and Junior and they were just excellent. They were singing songs all through and keeping us entertained. They had to carry 2 large bags always with them which contained heavy ropes, first aid kits, food, water melon, water bottles, cake, and many other necessary items. It isn’t an easy job at all.
I also got the videographer package which is so worth it as both the guides are constantly filming you as well with their GoPro and give you the memory card at the end. The footage is just priceless.
The nearby attraction Titou Gorge pales in comparison as you are almost 5 to 6 hours in the actual gorges which is spectacularly beautiful. We had some rainfall as well which made it quite romantically thrilling looking high up into the rainforest.
The advanced canyoning has by far been the BEST EVER ACTIVITY that i have ever done in my life. at some point, i will return to do it again.

Best Excursion Ever! - Amazing day doing the advanced canyoning with Extreme Dominica! I'm sure I'm butchering the spelling, but Nadji, Akil, Junior and all of the staff made us feel so safe and we had an absolute blast. Hope that you hired You're in the water for 5-7 hours, but the equipment they provide is great. Absolutely one of the most fun things that our family has ever done together. And the scenery is stunning! Not gonna lie, the rappel down Trafalgar Falls was definitely challenging! My hands were a wreck, but I'm glad that I did it! Can't recommend this experience enough. If the advanced is not for you, go anyway and do the regular canyoning experience!!!! Everything about this is awesome!

Best Excursion in the Caribbean! - We went on a 12 day cruise to the southern Caribbean and Dominica was one of the stops. This excursion was the best we experienced out of all the other islands! What a fun time...Benny and Jeffrey were an absolute blast and made the experience that much better. We are probably going to try the advanced course the next time we visit! This excursion is for thrill seekers and adventurers...highly recommend!

Beyond words! - Besides the amazing views and exhilarating thrills of the repels and jumps, the guides were phenomenal with stellar personalities. They were extremely helpful and created an environment where anxieties were eased in the most challenging of situations. They definitely go above and beyond, even breaking an advanced trip into two sessions when the weather did not look promising the second half of one day at no additional charge! Absolutely world class customer service is hard to come by with such a unique skill set, but Extreme Dominica has an amazing team! Would definitely recommend them to anyone visiting the island for any length of stay. It's a must!

Highlight of our trip, BY FAR! - We did the Trafalgar falls rappel as COMPLETE BEGINNERS, and it was AMAZING! All the guides were absolutely top notch. Not only did they make it so much fun, but they always made you feel 100% safe, even on top of a 250ft waterfall! The first half of the trip was the regular Canyoning experience, and that alone would have been enough to have been the highlight of our 8 day trip, but we were feeling brave and decided to do the 250ft waterfall rappel, and we are so glad we did! It was another two hours of canyoning, topped off by an amazing rappel. If you are on the fence, don't be! Do it! It was the highlight of the trip, and definitely one of the highlights of my entire life!

Unique adventure with amazing guides - This was wild and we loved it. You'll likely meet Naghe, Jeffrey (aka Big Papa), and the team at their HQ up in the mountains and for the next 4+ hours it's a roller coaster of jokes, laughs, scrambling through canyons, 20 foot leaps into deep pools of water and, if you do Trafalgar Falls, a 242-foot rappel down an epic waterfall. The experience was amazing and the staff, in addition to being awesome people, many of whom live in the town right above Trafalgar Falls, were incredibly focused on making our adventure safe (don't let the laughs fool you lol) and enjoyable. We'd highly recommend this adventure—for all these reasons and more. Can't type enough good things.
