Customer Reviews

The Africanyon trip was amazing! The team fit you with equipment then after a short walk in you are swimming through the canyon, abseiling and ziplining down waterfalls! The length of time of the trip does depend on the size of the group which could have been clearer on booking. The other important thing is knowing that you store your stuff in your car - as a backpacker I didnt have a car and so this was important! But the team were fab! - Kate


Very nice experience!! We were on a private trip in SA near the Plettenberg Bay. It was very cold that morning but we enjoyed the canyoning so much!! Our guides Puna and Julian were very good and we felt safe all the time. Really book this trip when you come to Plettenberg! - Febe Vanhaesebroeck


Brilliant few hours spent messing around in the canyon with Puna and Warren. Always fun combining a bit of Adrenalin, Heights and Cold Water... throughly recommends it as an activity to get the blood pumping! - Mark Moreau


The Africanyon tour was absolutely amazing and so much fun! The guides Tebz and Puna were friendly, encouraging, and very helpful, especially when I struggled with a few parts of the canyoning. They made me feel safe and supported throughout the experience. It was definitely one of the highlights of our entire trip and an experience I would highly recommend! - Nawal Alathari


Fantastic experience, throughly enjoyed by myself & 3 teenage boys. One of the best things we have ever done! Great guides who were highly-entertaining, but also made us feel safe. Thank you so much! - Gavin Aspden


Activity Description

Experience a World of Diversity in One Forest – Just a short drive from Knysna and 2 hours from Port-Elizabeth. Situated in the Garden of the Garden Route and heart of Tsitsikamma – Stormsriver Village.

Tsitsikamma Canopy Tour is an Award-Winning Canopy Tour company that turns Tourism activities into Tourism experiences! Enjoy being suspended 30m above the forest floor on the Tsitsikamma Canopy Tour, cable sliding from nine platforms, tree to tree while discovering the spectacular and unique wilderness of the Tsitsikamma Indigenous forest. Surrounded by birdlife and giant trees like the Outeniqua Yellowwood, known to us as Uncle Sam who is over 600 years old! One can easily feel like a dwarf standing against it. The tour begins with a detailed safety briefing followed by a ‘kitting up’ session where a full-body harness, pulleys, and climbing equipment is issued and checked. A short drive into the Tsitsikamma forest and it is time to monkey around!

From the start on the launch platform, a new world unfolds as one gently glides on a steel cable to the first tree platform. All groups are escorted through the forest canopy by a lead guide and a follow guide to ensure your safety as you slide from tree to tree. The platforms built high up in the giant Outeniqua Yellowwoods, provide an unbelievable view of this enchanting new world – any fear of heights is soon lost as you gather in your new surroundings.

Customer Reviews

"We had an unforgettable experience at Tsitsikamma Canopy Tour. After signing in, we received a safety briefing on how to complete the course securely. We were then picked up by a small truck to be taken to the starting point in the woods.With one instructor leading the way and another at the back, we were safely harnessed. From there, we went from one treetop to another. What an amazing feeling to fly through the air! Everything happened under the watchful eye of a sweet, kind instructor.At one point, we reached the oldest tree, which we had to greet with 'Hello Uncle Sam'. All the staff members were super nice to everyone and extremely helpful. A top-notch experience!" - Hans de Bruin
