Travel Tips
The Thrill: Expect an exhilarating, splash-filled, motorized canoe ride through rapids. The ride back upstream against the current is especially exciting.
Safety First: Helmets and life vests are mandatory and provided. The guides are expert-trained and prioritize safety, so you can feel secure even during the dramatic parts of the ride.
Swimming & Jumping: At "Deni's Point," the midpoint, you can swim in natural pools and jump off small waterfalls, letting the current carry you a short distance to a rope.
What to Bring: Bring a dry bag for your gadgets, swimwear, and money for the fees and food. There are no shops at the jump-off point, so plan ahead.
Booking: It's best to book in advance, especially on weekends. You can contact the organizers via the provided numbers or through their Facebook page
