The Experience
Go White water rafting with a friend! In this session you will do two runs down the river in our 14 foot inflatable raft, with the session lasting just over an hour in total.
Before you brave the water you will meet your guide for the trip who will give the group a full safety and instruction brief. Following this you will be kitted out in wetsuits, buoyancy aids, waterproof jackets, wetsuit boots and helmets. Then, a minibus will take you up to the start point where you will commence your first descent down the rapids. Once you arrive at the end of your first run down, you will be transported once again to the top of the course where your second run awaits.
