Recently went on a canyoning tour with Tristan from Roam Adventures.
The whole thing from start to finish was fantastic.
Tristan explained each step clearly and calmly, and his vast experience showed and you could tell a lot of care and thought had gone into every detail of his service.
The equipment was clean, presentable and high quality.
Overall what really stood out was how much it didn't actually feel like a tour service, and that's solely down to the way Roam set there trips up.
If you are reading this and debating whether to go on a trip with Roam I could not recommended them enough.

Highly recommended, thanks to my guide Leo and the owner Tristan for adding this trip to accommodate my travel schedule!! I contacted Roam Adventures and Training for something more challenging than what is offered at all of the other places. I was not let down. I wanted to push limits and traverse Claustral Canyon, and we even fit in a little side quest to find some glow worms. If you like canyoning and are physically capable, Claustral is your once in a lifetime trip, if you have no experience, they can bring you to Empress Canyon!. My pictures came out great, but do not come close to capturing this experience. If I ever get back to this side of the world, I wouldn't even think of hiring another guide service!!

An absolute amazing experience that everyone should have. Tristan was a knowledgeable and patient guide. The experience was not rushed at all. I will stay with ROAM for all future Canyoning trips. I can't rate this high enough!

tl;dr we had such an incredible time that we have already booked in to go canyoning less than a week out from our initial adventure with Roam!
+++
We booked with Roam as we wanted a more personal experience and they surpassed our expectations in every way.
First of all, the booking process was a breeze. Tristan is incredibly responsive (and patient – as we were much less so) and was more than happy to respond to our somewhat verbose enquiry and presented us with well thought-out options.
The team was flexible, we ended up doing a day trip as opposed to the initially proposed overnight (due to work). Even then, we ran late and the team was understanding and gracious as we were driving from Sydney.
Our day out with Aimee was fabulous, she was incredibly friendly and professional. Absolutely loved her passion for canyoning as her enthusiasm was infectious. She's a great teacher and very encouraging – literally talked me out of a panic attack at the edge of a cliff so that I was able to abseil down.
We did a half day abseil and half day at Empress Canyon which is gorgeous in its own right but we really believe Aimee (and our wider experience with Roam) was what made our experience so enjoyable. Loved the fact that they were able to time our departure so that we did not encounter other groups, made us feel like we had the entire canyon to ourself (and this was a Saturday too). Additionally, as someone who's job includes a lot of WHS, I really appreciated her focus on safety.
And I agree with the other reviewer's comment: the sandwich itself is worth 5 starts on its own.

Fantastic experience. Recommend Roam for the smaller group sizes, makes all the difference. Professional, experienced team who take care to carve out new and interesting trips through one of the most beautiful places in the world.
★★★★★
We did Rocky Canyon / Sheep Dip falls with Tristan and Roam in Jan 2023. It was an incredible experience that you absolutely could not have without a guide. Tristan was extremely professional, patient, fun, knowledgeable, and capable, and provided everything we needed (including a top quality lunch!), going over and above to help us have a magical and safe canyoning experience. Huge recommend!
★★★★★
Great day of adventure with Tristan from Roam adventures. Tristan was invested in ensuring we had a great day and memorable experiences. The small group size that Roam facilitates, ensures a personalised experience. Tristan was patient with all skill levels and adaptable to our groups needs.
Tristan also took care of the memories, with photos and videos of our canyoning experience. I hope to adventure with Roam again one day. Phil

Canyoning is an exhilerating mountain sport that involves traversing narrow slot canyons by swimming, wading, jumping, and abseiling. It offers an incredibly thrilling and immersive way to experience the unique and rugged Australian landscape.
These slot canyons are spectacular natural formations, carved out by water erosion over millions of years. Canyoning adventures may include abseiling down cascading waterfalls, wading through water, performing technical ascents and descents, carefully navigating slippery rocks, and jumping into deep pools.
This combination of physical challenge and natural beauty makes canyoning a truly unforgettable outdoor adventure.

Roam’s Adventure Tours are thoughtfully capped at just 4 people*. This ensures you have the best possible time, while also helping us tread lightly and respectfully in the pristine wilderness. There’s no big-bus touring here—meaning you avoid long waits and instead enjoy more personalized, one-on-one time with your expert guide or guides. With more personal coaching time and a greater safety margin.
Each of our adventure tours is carefully selected and designed to provide you with the very best experience.
We use premium and ultralight gear to enhance your adventure. Our high-quality technical equipment allows us to venture further while maintaining maximum comfort and safety. Our wetsuits are incredibly light, more flexible, and warmer, ensuring a much more comfortable and enjoyable day in the canyon.
*We of course can also cater to larger groups through Private bookings.
