M&M TRAVEL SOLUTIONS GOES ABSEILING IN PAARL

A Brilliant Sunday Spent Abseiling in the Paarl Nature Reserve

This past Sunday, Bianca and Kylie from M&M Travel Solutions decided get the adrenalin glands pumping by going abseiling in the beautiful Paarl Mountain Nature Reserve, just 45 minutes outside of Cape Town

Bianca Reports:

"The adventure started at 9am when we met with Martin from "Martins Abseiling" at the Engen Winelands 1 Stop. There a group of us, consisting of 15 people from all walks of life, were briefed on the day's adventure. We then all climbed into our own vehicles and followed Martin in his white Tazz up the Paarl Mountain Nature Reserve. A truly beautiful drive. 

Once we arrived at the boulders that we were going to be abseiling, Martin prepped us with the equipment he supplied. The Martin and his assistant prepared the ropes for the fun adventure.

My first decline was slow as I was still getting the hang of it, however Kylie was comfortable instantly and was down in a jiffy. Martin allowed us to go down an additional two times. Well worth the R200 per person. 

Some people stayed afterwards for a bring and braai, however we needed to get back to town. This was an adventure and truly amazing experience. I think I may be addicted to it."
