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.

What a thrill! We did the combo abseil and canyoning and it was beyond expectations. Leo was our guide and he was patient and so good at explaining what to do. It felt safe but your adrenaline was pumping. 30m abseiling was a highlight and so was jumping off high rocks into the water. We were lucky that only my partner and I booked that time slot as it felt personalised and we Leo was happy to take photos for us. Highly recommended.

We had an awesome day doing the Macquarie Pass canyon. The jumps were great fun, the slides fast and the water nice and clean. James was the perfect guide, super friendly, with an incredible knowledge of the area. Highly recommend!!!!

Amazing experience abseiling and canyoning at Empress Canyon in the blue mountains
Had professional and friendly guides who helped us every step of the way. Definitely an experience you’d love to do again. If you love adventure and adrenaline (and not scared of heights) this is the perfect activity if your with friends, a couple or solo

Amazing experience today on the full day Combo - Abseiling & Canyoning adventure at Narrow Neck Plateau (Blue Mountains) + Empress Canyon (Blue Mountains).
Ken and Arno (instructors) ensured we had a fabulous experience - especially patient with my 11-year-old son who conquered his fear of heights and managed to abseil 30m down Empress Falls. Highly recommend this company to other families with teenagers wanting a challenging fun day out. Ken shared his extensive local knowledge of the flora, fauna and geology of the Blue Mountains. Mum with 16, 13 & 11-year-old had just as much fun as the kids.

James from Eagle Rock Adventures took my daughter and myself abseiling at Mount York, Blue Mountains. James was a thorough professional, with our comfort and safety his number 1 priority. James delivered clear and concise instruction which enhanced our abseiling experience. I would highly recommended the team from Eagle Rock Adventures, and in particular James for your next adventure.

Incredible in every sense...
We chose to combine an abseiling experience with the Empress Falls Canyoning day. This was a very special occasion and although we had booked something else, this turned out amazing. The recent rains made our original plan impossible but Paul and James from Eagle Rock Adventures did a great job of pivoting and communicating clearly the whole way.
The day itself was unreal. We went for the Boar's Head Abseiling which was epic and awe striking and challenging and humbling all while being the amazing bonding experience my friend and I were hoping for.
After a great lunch we then began our canyoning experience. Again, because of recent weather we had to make small adjustments and by no means did they make any impact on our experience. Canyoning was unbelievable. Being able to immerse yourself in nature like this, while combining some adventure and excitement was beyond my expectations. I was not even done with the day and already planning for a future visit!
Although it was certainly not easy, it never felt scarier than a healthy respect for Mother Nature should make you feel.
This is where James was such an incredible guide and ambassador for canyoning itself, for his company and for himself. He combined the art of guiding and educating, with a great talent for fun and humor/wit while not once compromising on keeping us focussed on safety. He balanced these so well that I wish I could write a review for him personally. I have a lot of experience in this field and I cannot overstate how much he impressed me. At the end one feels that one has gained a lifelong memory of something so incredibly powerful, but also that you have gained a friend who was kind enough to introduce it to you. Truly above and beyond!
All in all, anyone wanting a life changing experience should look no further!
Well done Eagle Rock Adventures, and special shout out to James!
Thank you

My partner and I booked a tour with Eagle Rock and travelled 3+ hours to Katoomba to meet Ryan... What a great experience with such a knowledgeable tour guide... every contact from booking the tour to the contact with James and meeting Ryan we were not disappointed.
The canyoning its self was unbelievable with Ryan's fantastic guidance and in-depth knowledge

I am 40 and my partner is 47, our fitness level is not great either. We did full abseiling (5m, 15m and 30m), canyoning to the empress fall, then abseiled down through the waterfall. It was the most challenging experience as it was raining on and off during the whole adventure. Our guides were Ryan and Lucas, they’re so passionate about what they’re doing and it wasn’t just an adventure, Ryan explained the history of the rainforest, showing the different type of leaves, the whole experience was so amazing. If the garden of Eden was real, this is it, the rainforest was breathtakingly beautiful. It was muddy, there were lots of stairs and rocks to climb, we were exhausted at the end, but I think if it was a clear weather, we wouldn’t be as tired. Overall it was an absolutely amazing experience.
A couple lost their go pro when abseiling down the waterfall. if you want to take your go pro, leave it inside your wetsuit when going down the waterfall, and you need proper clip to the helmet as you need to jump down to the water at least 3-4 times. Careful with the rocks, just walk slowly and enjoy the surroundings.

Leo and Pavlo were nothing short of amazing. They were professional and adaptable to situations while giving clear and concise instructions. They have a deep understanding of the environment and shared that knowledge with the group to help us appreciate the experience.
We did multiple rock jumps, canyon trekking and the piece de resistance was the 30m waterfall abseil.
Safety was kept at the top priority and never once did we feel unsafe. Kudos to Leo and Pavlo for taking care of the whole group.
Note to those trying the Empress Canyon route. Make sure you have a base level of fitness to fully enjoy the experience.

What an adventure! We were worried that the cold and rainy weather would dampen our spirits but our group took it in stride and had an incredible afternoon of hiking, canyoning and abseiling.
Our guides were Ryan and Leo, both of whom did an awesome job of explaining the rules and safety guidelines but went above and beyond by peppering in fun facts about the Indigenous peoples who lived of the land of Empress Falls up to 20,000 years ago!
We were almost always given options with how to proceed when canyoning, which catered to the various confidence levels amongst the group. I personally enjoyed the “dare devil” options but appreciated how patient Ryan and Leo were with the members of the group who weren’t so confident.
There were so many points throughout the experience where I got that rush of adrenaline, but there were also moments of calm where we got to take in the beauty of the rainforest around us. Overall I would highly recommend this experience to anyone with an adventurous spirit.

Definitely we were in our 50’s but fairly fit and active and certainly kept up with the younger ones.
Will they provide transfers to and from our hotel in Sydney?
