I had the most incredible experience absailing with Ivan. It was such an amazing day from the travel there, the first wall and then the 60m wall! We were also cooked a delicious stir fry for lunch to which my sister and I who both don’t eat meat were catered for. I can’t thank them enough for the day and the memories and I would 100% recommend them to anyone seeking the adventure and the same amazing experience!
What an amazing day! Ivan picked us up on time and took us out to the Watagans. We thoroughly enjoyed the challenge of abseiling down the 20m and 60 m cliffs. The views were spectacular, we even saw a rock wallaby and pair of wedge tail eagles. I felt really safe and confident under Ivan's guidance and was easily able to trust the brief that he gave us while descending. On a side note, loved the healthy lunch that was provided, that was an added bonus. Ivan was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot on our trip with him. We'd love to explore more of the area with Ivan and continue on adventures with him!
My wife and I went abseiling for my birthday. We had such a great day! Ivan was an outstanding guide. We felt safe the whole time. He trained us up well and made a great lunch spread too. All in all an excellent adventure with a great guide. We are looking to go on other adventures with him in the future. We highly recommend adventuring with him.
Ivan was the best guide that I could have ever asked for. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, incredibly friendly, patient, and goes miles above and beyond to provide the best experience possible. Kayaking the extraordinarily beautiful Myall Lakes was positively a luxury with Ivan doing everything in his power to make it a wonderful, memorable experience. He is the very embodiment of a good, honest, and caring Aussie bloke. I have no hesitations in recommending booking an adventure with Walking Rivers and would certainly love to come back again myself. Ivan, thank you so much for all your time, effort, and care; and all that you have taught me!
I had a fantastic experience! The booking process was seamless, and the communication leading up to the day was excellent. Ivan was exceptionally organised, utilising well-maintained equipment and demonstrating a deep knowledge of the activity. He provided valuable insights about the local area and the surrounding bush, sharing his passion and enthusiasm throughout the experience. I highly recommend this adventure!
