Loads of fun, my work colleagues and I had a great time adventuring up the river with Nathan and Bev. Our group spanned a range of individual experience from keen novices to experienced climbers and mountaineers, all were challenged and well supported with their individual needs. We found their guidance gave us the confidence to push ourselves whilst always feeling safe under their expertise in this environment.Posted on Google![]()

A very enjoyable day out, fording rivers, sliding down waterfalls and jumping into deep pools. I did this with work colleagues but will be coming back with my family.Posted on Google![]()

Nathan organised two days of activities for out scout group's summer camp. Both the climbing and the gorge walking were fun, safe and exciting for all abilities and ages. We have done several summer camps and the gorge walking was one of the best things we've ever done closely followed by the rock climbing.Posted on Google![]()

Brilliant adventure with an outstanding guide We had an amazing first gorge walking experience at Mellte Waterfalls and couldn't have asked for a better introduction to the sport. The route had a brilliant mix of jumps, dives, and fun games, making it exciting from start to finish. My favourite part was the 7.5 m jump – it was a real adrenaline rush and something I'll remember for a long time. Nathan was an excellent guide. He gave clear, confident instructions throughout and struck the perfect balance between being firm on safety while keeping everything relaxed and fun. At no point did we feel pressured to do anything beyond our comfort level, but his encouragement helped us build confidence and try more than we thought we would. The whole experience was really well organised. Everything ran punctually and efficiently, the equipment was great, and having a waterproof camera to capture the best moments was a fantastic touch. We came away with some brilliant photos to remember the day. We'd absolutely recommend this experience to anyone, whether it's your first time or you're looking for a fun outdoor adventure. Thanks again to Nathan for making it such a memorable day!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Great stag activity Went for a stag do and, despite the water level being very low, there was still loads to do and was really enjoyable. The team were all friendly and engaging and made the experience. The organisational aspect was very accommodating to balance out my poor communication and flip flopping.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Gorge walking We had a brilliant experience with Nathan. We were a family of two adults and four children (8-13). From the start it was clear Nathan was professional, safety focused, yet always working hard to ensure we all had fun. We were sliding down rocks in the river, climbing through gorges and leaping into waterfalls. We all had a fantastic time and would highly recommend the experience to everyone. Thank you Nathan!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Fabulous Fabulous day Nathan was very patient with us older gorge walkers and made the experience fun and enjoyable. I was proud that I could still climb up and over rocks and jump from 5/10ft into pools below. Thank youPosted on Tripadvisor![]()

Amazing opportunity Nathan and his team at Life Changing were incredibly supportive and helpful in helping me organise a climbing opportunity with my school Bishop Perowne. We had an amazing day with all the children asking to go again. Already in contact and planning the next one! Thanks Nathan!
