Sua segurança, conforto e diversão são nossas prioridades. Por isso, contamos com guias formados em cursos de APH (Atendimento Pré-Hospitalar) e CMC (Competências Mínimas de Condução) conforme as normas da ABNT, além de alguns com certificação WAFA. Todos os guias estão equipados com kits de primeiros socorros para áreas remotas, e trazem consigo ampla experiência em montanha.
No entanto, salientamos que não se trata de uma atividade 100% segura, mesmo com todos os cuidados, prevenções e responsabilidades que adotamos, imprevistos e acidentes podem ocorrer. Como em praticamente todas as atividades de aventura em ambientes naturais, há um elemento de risco (animais peçonhentos, quedas com fraturas e escoriações, tempestades, inundações, acidentes em geral, etc.). A viagem escolhida ocorre em locais selvagens, onde procedimentos de resgate podem ser demorados (podendo levar mais de 5 horas para o início do socorro, serviço não incluído em nossa reserva). Quebras mecânicas no veículo de transporte também podem provocar atrasos ou alterações na viagem. Por isso ressaltamos a extrema importância dos participantes portarem todos os equipamentos obrigatórios informados na aba checklist. A falta de equipamentos obrigatórios impossibilitará a participação na atividade.
