How to choose

Both tours tackle the same Eaux Rousses canyon near La Léchère, run at the same "Occasionally sporty" physical level, and last exactly 2.5h. The 10 € gap comes down to the operator. Terreo Canyoning prices the descent at 50 € and guides in both French and English. Odyssée Canyon charges 60 € for the same run, also bilingual. If budget is your main filter, Terreo Canyoning is the straightforward pick. If you want to compare guide style or availability before committing, check both operators' slots: the canyon itself doesn't change, but the experience on the water does depend on who's leading you through the rappels and jump sequences.
