The experience begins at the meeting point at the company's base, where you will receive a warm welcome and a brief orientation from our cheerful, experienced, and adventure-loving guides. The activity lasts approximately 3 hours, making it perfect for those seeking a full adventure, and ends at the same meeting point where it started. Next, we kit all participants out with a life jacket, helmet, and paddles, ensuring complete safety for the trip. On colder days, we provide wetsuits and windbreakers to guarantee comfort and protection.
During the descent, you will be surrounded by breathtaking scenery: mountains, lush vegetation, majestic rocks, and the crystal-clear waters of the river create a unique setting.
Along the way, we will encounter thrilling rapids, but there will also be calm stretches, perfect for relaxing, swimming, and enjoying the surrounding nature. For the more adventurous, a special stop will offer the chance to jump off a rock into the water… an unforgettable experience for those seeking a bit more adrenaline!
Following the guide's instructions carefully and promptly is essential to navigate the rapids safely and make the most of the experience. Clear communication between the guide and the participants is key to a fun and safe adventure.
Our rafting activity is inclusive and can be enjoyed by people of all ages and skill levels.
