It first I felt a bit nervous, but thanks to our guide Diogo I was completely relaxed. We went with our family (2 adults, 4 children) and another family. It was exciting, adventurous and very much fun.

Lovely waterfall, nice nature, kayak and lunch was great
Only one more toilet stop on the way back would have been convenient but we forgot to ask the guide
