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.

We were doing 1 day Watagan's bushwalking Tour on 5 Jan 2025. The tour was amazing and full of fun and adventure. Our guide Ivan Macfadyen shared a lot of useful information about navigating in the bush and provided us with the rules of a safe behavior. Thank you Ivan for this unforgettable experience!

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!

We had an absolutely incredible day with Ivan learning to abseil. Although terrifying, the experience was amazing - one we wont forget for a long time. Ivan was a great instructor who helped to calm the nerves whilst teaching us a few bits and pieces along the way. We’d highly recommend!

We had an amazing time abseiling with Ivan. He exudes confidence when it comes to all things adventure. On our trip we had one person who was particularly scared of heights.
He was able to "push" her past her previous limits.
Healthy lunch on site, plenty of support and a true nature lover.
Can thoroughly recommend.

We had a really great day with Ivan who kindly took us for the day as a couple after our booking went through. Ivan said usually he takes groups of 6 or more so we were very privileged. Ivan was easy to get on with, very particular about his rope set up, very thorough in our preparation for the abseiling, and generous with his time.

We abseiled a 20 metre cliff a number of times (after clearing a big snake from the bottom of the cliff), then tackled the 60m cliff after a nice lunch of vege burgers with egg and salad cooked by Ivan. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending the 6 hour abseiling package to anyone considering giving it ago. Do yourself a favour and make a day of it!!

Great personalised experience. Ivan picked us up and dropped us at our door. Ivan provided some additional navigation techniques as well as taking us to beautiful lookouts and swimming hole. Highly recommend this tour.
